Disabling System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 GMC Sierra and 2000 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: SDM maintains sufficient voltage to cause air bag deployment for up to 10 minutes after ignition switch is turned OFF, battery is disconnected, or fuse powering SDM is removed. In order to begin servicing immediately, inflator modules must be removed from deployment loop.
NOTE: When SIR fuse is removed and ignition switch is in RUN position, AIR BAG warning light will be on. This does not indicate a system malfunction.
  1. Turn steering wheel to place vehicle wheels in straight-ahead position. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position and remove key.
  2. Remove AIR BAG fuse (15-amp) located in instrument panel fuse block. Remove left-side knee bolster. Remove Connector Position Assurance (CPA) clips and disconnect driver and passenger-side air bag module Yellow 2-pin connectors located at base of steering column and behind glove box.
