- Disconnect The Vehicle Battery And Wait A Minimum Of 10 Minutes To Allow SRS Capacitors To Discharge.
- Remove Seat Trim/Panels According To Factory Procedures To Access The Seat Airbag Module.
- Unbolt The Airbag Module From The Seat Frame And Carefully Disconnect The SRS Connector(s) Using Release Tabs.
