Pressure Sensor: Handling
- Removing the pressure sensor or disconnecting the pressure sensor connector with the ignition ON can activate the pressure sensor and operate (deploy) the side air bag, the curtain air bag, pre-tensioner seat belt and lap pre-tensioner seat belt, which may cause serious injury. Before removing the pressure sensor or disconnecting the pressure sensor connector, always switch the ignition off, disconnect the negative battery cable, and then wait for 1 min or more to allow the backup power supply of the SAS control module to deplete its stored power.
- If the pressure sensor is subjected to shock or the sensor is disassembled, the side air bag, the curtain air bag, pre-tensioner seat belt and lap pre-tensioner seat belt may accidentally operate (deploy) and cause injury, or the system may fail to operate normally and cause a serious accident. Do not subject the pressure sensor to shock or disassemble the sensor.
