Lumbar Assembly Removal/Installation

LUMBAR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

WARNING:
- Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of serious personal injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
- To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.


NOTE:
- The air bag warning indicator 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 SRS fault.
- The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
- Driver seat and passenger seat are similar.

1. Depower the SRS.
2. Remove the front seat backrest cover.
3. Remove the backrest foam pad.
4. Remove the 2 screws and position aside the lumbar adjust control.
5. Release the lumbar support from the backrest frame wires and remove.
6. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
7. Install the front seat backrest cover.
8. Repower the supplemental restraint system (SRS).
