DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SIDE IMPACT AIRBAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the side impact airbag
restraint system utilize two airbags mounted to each
front seat back frame (Fig. 1). This system designed
to protect occupants in the event of a side impact col-
lision.
OPERATION
The side impact airbag control module (SIACM)
controls the seat back mounted airbags. If the
SIACM determines the impact is severe enough, the
appropriate airbag/s will inflate, tearing open the
front seat back trim cover/s protecting the passen-
ger/s. Once a seat back mounted airbag has been
deployed, all damaged parts must be replaced.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
FRONT SEAT - AIRBAG EQUIPPED
REMOVAL
(1) Position the seat far enough forward to allow
removal of the rear retaining bolts (Fig. 3).
WARNING: DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE NEG-
ATIVE BATTERY CABLE REMOTE TERMINAL
BEFORE BEGINNING ANY FRONT SEAT REMOVAL
OR INSTALLATION PROCEDURE. THIS WILL DIS-
ABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DISCON-
NECT THE BATTERY COULD RESULT IN
ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSI-
BLE PERSONAL INJURY.
WARNING: ONCE THE NEGATIVE CABLE IS DIS-
CONNECTED WAIT FOR 2 MINUTES BEFORE
REMOVING ANY AIRBAG SYSTEM COMPONENTS.

tery cable (Fig. 2).
