- Unbolt the old bracket and disconnect any buckle switch connector if present.
- Fit the replacement mount, connect the electrical connector (if applicable) and tighten bolts to the manufacturer’s torque specification.
- Reassemble trim, reconnect the battery and verify buckle operation. Use a diagnostic tool to clear or check any fault codes if required.
Common Failure Modes
