Side Crash Sensor: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Improper side crash sensor code over-write possible. Air bag deployment malfunction may result. Ensure ignition switch is turned to ON position without turning to LOCK or START position or starting engine for a minimum of 5 seconds after new side crash sensor is installed. Failure to follow this procedure will cancel sensor code over-write and require sensor to be replaced again.
