Passenger Airbag: Installation

If replacing Passenger Airbag due to a deployment, use a new instrument panel and pad assembly. Transfer all of the components.

1. With the battery disconnected, place the Passenger Airbag into the panel cavity. Press the airbag door tabs down to engage on the instrument panel retainer.
2. Install the two nuts and two screws attaching airbag assembly to the instrument panel collar and torque nuts and screws to 7.5 +/- 1 N.m (66 in. lbs.). The two nuts are on the outer sides of the passenger airbag, underneath up near the top of the instrument panel. The two screws are mounted straight through the tabs at the bottom front of the airbag, in the instrument panel reinforcement.
3. Connect Passenger Airbag wire connector.
4. Pinch in on sides of the glove box and raise it up into the instrument panel opening.
