On models equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) or "air bag," work must NOT be started until at least 90
seconds have passed from the time that both the ignition switch
is turned to the LOCK position and the negative cable is discon-
nected from the battery.
Most dash-mounted switches can be removed using the same basic pro-
cedure. Remove the trim panel which the switch is secured to. Trim panels
are usually secured by a series of screws and/or clips. Make sure you
remove all attaching screws before attempting to pull on the panel. Do not
use excessive force as trim panels are easily damaged. Once the trim panel
has been removed, unplug the switch connector, then remove its retaining
screws or pry it from the mounting clip. Always disconnect the negative
battery cable first.
