Warranty claims must be submitted using labor operation SD9999, the name and part number of the harness assembly the connector is in. The labor time submitted will be the combination of the FQ operation diagnosis time for the DTC that was set, plus the actual reasonable time required to gain access to the connector. In the comments section of the claim submission, indicate the affected Airbag and its location, with the statement "replaced the CPA retainer in reference to Techline case #2-XXXXX".
Parts Information
1. Perform the diagnostic steps found in the XL7 Service Manual to determine the cause of the failure and to locate the open connection which is setting the DTC.
Note:
Always disconnect the battery before performing any diagnosis or repairs to the vehicle's Airbag system.
2. If the connection is loose, remove the connector and reinstall correctly by first pushing the male connector body completely into the female side, and then pushing the CPA retainer (1) in completely.
3. A condition may exist where the CPA Retainer is broken, missing, or will not seat in the connector correctly. If the connector requires replacing, please contact the S.M.A.R.T. Technical Hotline. Do not replace the Airbag Harness.
4. After securing the connector and installing the proper CPA Retainer, re-connect the battery, and using the Tech II scan tool, recheck and clear any related DTC(s), and confirm that your repair(s) were successful.
