    Q:
    How Should the Front Air Bag Sensor Be Serviced to Ensure Safety After a Crash on Ford Mustang? Posted by Customer
    A:
    The first step when servicing front impact severity sensors includes checking the restraints control module (RCM) and impact sensor mounting areas for any vehicle collision-induced damage. Restoring any broken areas to their original design will prevent fatalities through replacement of the RCM and sensors no matter if air bags deployed or not. The air bag warning indicator functions when both the correct RCM fuse is disconnected while the ignition switch is ON. The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) should operate without defects prior to vehicle release. Begin by depowering the SRS. You need to eliminate the six retainers of the radiator along with the upper air deflector followed by disconnecting the electrical sensor from the front impact severity unit. The front impact severity sensor requires the removal of its nut before extraction. The installation process requires that sensor tightening reach 10 Nm (89 lb-in torque) while impact sensor and RCM fasteners need precise torque adjustments to prevent faulty restraint operation that may lead to injury or death in accidents. A thorough check must be done for clean and corrosion-free mating surfaces of the front impact severity sensor prior to installation followed by the reverse removal process. Finally, repower the SRS.
