Passive Entry Module - 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. Reach through the outboard side of the lower glove box opening to access and reconnect the two instrument panel wire harness connectors to the two connector receptacles of the Passive Entry Module (PEM) (2).
2. Still reaching through the outboard side of the lower glove box opening, reach around the outboard end of the heater and air conditioner housing to position the PEM to the flange between the blower and recirculation housings.
3. Install the one plastic push in fastener that secures the forward leg of the PEM bracket to the flange between the blower and recirculation housings.
4. Install and tighten the two nuts that secure the two studs (1) of the PEM bracket to the instrument panel hanger bracket (3) for the heater and air conditioner housing. Tighten the nuts securely.
5. Reinstall the lower glove box into the instrument panel. Instrument Panel Glove Box - Installation.
6. Reconnect the battery negative cable.

NOTE: If the PEM is being replaced with a new unit, a diagnostic scan tool MUST be used to initialize and configure the new PEM. Follow the programming steps outlined in the diagnostic scan tool for Replace found under Miscellaneous Functions for the PEM/Passive Entry Module menu item.
