SEATS AND RESTRAINTS 69
Servicing the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Airbags affect how the vehicle should
be ser viced. There are parts of the
airbag system in several places around
the vehicle. Your dealer and the
service manual have information
about ser vicing the vehicle and the
airbag system. To purchase a ser vice
manual, see Publication Ordering
Information 0 344.
{
Warning
For up to 10 seconds after the
vehicle is turned off and the batter y
is disconnected, an airbag can still
inf late during improper ser vice. You
can be injured if you are close to an
airbag when it inflates. Avoid
yellow connectors. They are
probably part of the airbag system.
Be sure to follow proper service
procedures, and make sure the
person performing work for you is
qualified to do so.
Adding Equipment to the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Adding accessories that change the
vehicle's frame, bumper system,
height, front end, or side sheet metal
may keep the airbag system from
working properly.
The operation of the airbag system
can also be affected by changing,
including improperly repairing or
replacing, any parts of the following:
.
Airbag system, including airbag
modules, front or side impact
sensors, sensing and diagnostic
module, or airbag wiring
.
Front seats, including stitching,
seams or zippers
.
Seat belts
.
Steering wheel, instrument panel,
overhead console, ceiling trim,
or pillar garnish trim
.
Inner door seals, including
speakers
Your dealer and the service manual
have information about the location of
the airbag modules and sensors,
sensing and diagnostic module, and
airbag wiring along with the proper
replacement procedures.
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system for the front
outboard passenger position, which
includes sensors that are part of the
passenger seat. The passenger sensing
system may not operate properly if
the original seat trim is replaced with
non-GM covers, upholster y, or trim; or
with GM covers, upholstery, or trim
designed for a different vehicle. Any
object, such as an aftermarket seat
heater or a comfort-enhancing pad or
device, installed under or on top of
the seat fabric, could also inter fere
with the operation of the passenger
sensing system. This could either
prevent proper deployment of the
passenger airbag(s) or prevent the
passenger sensing system from
properly turning off the passenger
airbag(s). See Passenger Sensing
System 0 65.
If the vehicle has rollover roof-rail
airbags, see Different Size Tires and
Wheels 0 287 for additional import ant
information.
