INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental
restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification sys-
tem, 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 supplemental
restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, never strike or drop the occupant restraint controller, as it can
damage the impact sensor or affect its calibration. The occupant restraint controller contains the impact
sensor, which enables the system to deploy the supplemental restraints. If an airbag control module is acci-
dentally dropped during service, the module must be scrapped and replaced with a new unit. Failure to
observe this warning could result in accidental, incomplete, or improper supplemental restraint deployment.
CAUTION: On vehicles equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), never replace both the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and the Occupant Classification Module (OCM) at the same time. If
both require replacement, replace one. Then perform the supplemental restraint verification test before
replacing the other. Both the ORC and the OCM store OCS calibration data, which they transfer to one
another when one of them is replaced. If both are replaced at the same time, an irreversible fault will be set
in both modules.
