Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) System
CAUTION:
It is necessary to carry out the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system reset when a front passenger seat cushion is disassembled, a new trim is cover installed or an OCS service kit is installed. A scan tool is used to carry out the OCS system reset command. Failure to follow this instruction may result in system failure and the incorrect operation of the OCS system.
CAUTION:
Make sure the seat is completely assembled to prevent system failure before carrying out the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system reset active command.
NOTE:
Occupant classification sensor (OCS) system components (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and occupant classification system module [OCSM]) are calibrated to each other and are serviced as an assembly. The OCS system components are not to be installed separately. If a new OCS system, OCS system component or seat cushion foam pad are needed, a new OCS system service kit (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor, OCSM and seat wiring harness) must be installed as an assembly.
NOTE:
To identify between a production OCS system and an OCS system service kit, inspect the OCSM electrical connector.
A production OCS system allows the disconnection of the OCSM electrical connector. An OCSM system service kit has the electrical connector glued to the OCSM, it cannot and should not be disconnected or altered. An OCS system service kit also has an in-line connector between the OCSM and the seat wiring harness.
The OCS system is standard equipment on all front outboard passenger seats. For information on diagnosing or servicing the OCS system, refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM article.
