Removal
NOTE: When the battery is disconnected and connected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven to allow the PCM to relearn the adaptive strategy values.
NOTE: Removal steps in this procedure may contain installation details.
NOTICE: Make sure the positive battery terminal cover is in position while removing the negative battery cable clamp to prevent damage from a short to the positive terminal.
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the sensor when removing the terminal from the battery post. Do not pry on the terminals or component damage may occur.
NOTICE: Do not remove or install the battery cable nut while the battery monitor sensor is attached to the battery post as this causes damage to the sensor, connector, and possibly the battery post and case.
Loosen, but do not remove the nut and position the negative battery cable aside.NOTICE: Make sure the battery cable terminal is properly positioned to the battery monitoring sensor before tightening the nut or component damage may occur.
Installation
The front outboard and rear safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts.
Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from) until you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure that you securely fasten the tongue in the buckle. To unfasten, press the release button and remove the tongue from the buckle.
