WARNING:

  • A NEW ECS MODULE MUST BE INSTALLED IF THE AIR BAG MODULES HAVE DEPLOYED.
  • THE ECS ORIENTATION IS CRITICAL FOR CORRECT SYSTEM OPERATION. IF A VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH AN SRS SYSTEM HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A COLLISION IN WHICH THE CENTER TUNNEL AREA HAS BEEN DAMAGED, INSPECT THE MOUNTING AND BRACKET FOR DEFORMATION. IF DAMAGED, A NEW ECS MUST BE INSTALLED WHETHER OR NOT THE AIR BAG MODULES HAVE DEPLOYED. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THE AREA OF THE SENSOR MOUNTING IS RESTORED TO ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION.
