Does anyone know what to do once I take out the seat? Because I cannot see where the cable is connected.
I do not want to take seat out until I order the cable and have it on my possession or should I first take out seat.
Does anyone have recommendations?  |
Ok, do not take the seat out or disconnect any of the plugs under the seat until you disconnect the battery 1st, because 1 of the plugs will trip the air bag light to come on & stay on.....so until the job is complete... in this order: 1). disconnect the neg. batt. cable... 2) remove 4 bolts mounted to the floor, 3) tip seat back & disconnect all plugs attached to seat...4) remove seat from car & repair....
DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY UNTIL THE SEAT IS REINSTALLED WITH ALL PLUGS CONNECTED!!!!!
