Module - Occupant Restraint Controller: Installation: Cover

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Pickup and 2005 Dodge Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
NOTE: The Airbag Control Module (ACM) cover is used only on models with an automatic transmission. Models with a manual transmission require that the floor console be reinstalled following ACM service. (Refer to BODY/INTERIOR/FLOOR CONSOLE - INSTALLATION) .
