    Q:
    How to replace the Air Bag Sensor in the Front End on Cadillac Eldorado? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Start by disabling the SIR system to swap out the Inflatable Restraint Front End Discriminating Sensor which requires access behind the hood hinge through the removal of the radiator support cover. You should smoothly detach the Connector Position Assurance (CPA) from the harness connector before removing the connector from the sensor. Unscrew the mounting fasteners before you pull the sensor free from its position on the radiator support. To attach this sensor position it level on the mounting surface with the arrow marker directed at the vehicle front and install fasteners to secure it to the radiator support at 11 N.m (98 lb in) torque. Reconnect the harness connector to the sensor followed by installation of the CPA into position. Finish the installation by putting on the radiator support cover while still following all SIR procedures to avoid air bag triggering and personal harm.
