Fuel Door Switch - Installation
INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, 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 SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Position the fuel door switch (2) close enough to the mounting hole in the steering column opening cover (1) to reconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector to the connector receptacle on the back of the switch housing.
2. Using your fingers, compress the flexible retainers on each side of the switch housing far enough to insert the switch into the mounting hole.
3. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
