Air Bag Disarming


NOTE: Access and record all fault (trouble) codes prior to disarming the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).

1. Place ignition switch in lock position.
2. Disconnect battery ground cable connector.
3. Wait at least two minutes after disconnecting battery ground cable before doing any further work on vehicle. The air bag system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy air bag for a short time even after battery has been disconnected.
