Before servicing the air bag Control Module, shut off the supplemental restraint system by removing and disconnecting the negative
Battery Cable and then let it sit for two minutes so the capacitor can safely lose any stored electrical charge. Do not touch or damage the air bag Control Module, because it may hurt the impact sensor and once dropped, it can only be replaced. Make sure you don't bend or break the cover latches as you take the module out. Start by taking out the
Center Console lying on the top of the floor panel transmission tunnel. Pull back the two latch tabs on both sides of the cover, then lift the release tab and lever arm to hook up the ACM wire harnesses. Take out the three screws and remove the ACM from the bracket underneath the transmission tunnel. Install the ACM making sure that the line on the box faces forward and that the pin line ups with the hole in the bracket. Install the ACM by inserting each screw and tightening all three to 11 Nm. Before inserting the wire harness connectors, make sure the fastening on the levers is unlatched. Fit the cover into the ACM frame, checking that both of the latches are snapped together and then put it back in the center console. Do not attach the negative battery cable until the test for the supplemental restraint system has been done following any repairs to its parts.
