Removal and Installation

WARNING:
- The safety belt pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device. Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag equipped vehicle and when handling a safety belt buckle pretensioner or safety belt retractor pretensioner. Never probe a pretensioner electrical connector. Doing so could result in pretensioner or air bag deployment and could result in personal injury.
- To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.

NOTE:
- The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the restraints control module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault.
- The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.

2. Depower the supplemental restraint system (SRS).







3. Release the seat backrest cover lower rear J-clip, then unzip the 2 side zippers.
4. Remove the climate controlled seat thermo-electric device (TED).
- Disconnect the TED electrical connector.
- Remove the scrivet.
- Detach the 2 retainer clips from the backrest frame support wires.

5. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
6. Repower the SRS.
