WARNING: The restraints control module (RCM) orientation is critical for proper air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) 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, the RCM must be replaced whether or not the air bags have deployed. In addition, make sure the area of the RCM mounting is restored to its original condition. WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices. CAUTION: Electronic modules are sensitive to static electrical charges. If exposed to these charges, damage can result. NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault. NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer. NOTE: Repair is made by installing a new part only. If the new part does not correct the condition, install the original part and carry out the diagnostic procedure again. 1. Move the front seats as far forward as possible. 2. Depower the system. For additional information, refer to Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering and Repowering in this section. 3. Remove the storage tray insert. 4. Remove the two screws. 5.
