Sensor - Sun: Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Magnum and 2005 Chrysler 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: On vehicles equipped with airbags, 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 could result in an accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury or death.
