Removal And Installation

The air bag Electronic Crash Sensor (ECS) module orientation is critical for proper air bag system operation. If a vehicle equipped with a driver air bag module and passenger air bag module is involved in a crash where the center tunnel area has been damaged, make sure that body structure in the area of the sensor mounting is restored to its original condition. Inspect the mounting and bracket for deformation.
^ Damaged ECS modules should be replaced whether or not the driver air bag module or passenger air bag module is deployed.
^ ECS modules must be replaced if the air bags have deployed.
