Lumbar Control Switch

Lumbar Control Switch


Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the proper precautions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.

• Take the proper precautions to protect the face of the seat cushion side shield from cosmetic damage while performing this procedure.

• Driver side shown. Passenger side similar.
