Passenger Airbag On/Off Indicator: Installation

WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification system, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

From the face of the inboard end cap, align the passenger airbag on/off indicator housing with the mounting hole.
Using hand pressure, push the indicator firmly and evenly into inboard end cap until the two latches are fully engaged on the back of the cap. See Figure.
Position the indicator and end cap unit close enough to the instrument panel to reconnect the wire harness connector for the indicator to the indicator connector receptacle. Be certain that the connector is fully engaged in the receptacle.
Align the indicator and end cap unit with the inboard end of the grab handle, and engage the lower snap feature of the end cap to the bottom of the grab handle.
Using hand pressure, push the upper edge of the end cap firmly and evenly over the top of the grab handle until the cap snaps into place.
Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. The supplemental restraint system verification test procedure should be performed following service of any supplemental restraint system component. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - VERIFICATION TEST) .
Following successful completion of the supplemental restraint system verification test procedure, perform the Occupant Classification System Verification Test using a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to OCS VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 table in BODY DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES .
