• Q: How to replace the Air Bag Sensor in the Front End on 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier?

  A: Starting the replacement process for the Inflatable Restraint Front End Sensor requires disabling the SIR system. Before powering on the system make sure to keep the inflatable restraint front end sensor safe from impact while securing all connections to stop SIR activation or avoid injury. Start the procedure by removing pushpin retainers from the hood close out panel followed by removing the vehicle's panel. (withId protection disabled) disconnect the wiring harness connector from the sensor and remove the connector position assurance from the wiring harness connector. Mounting bolutes must be removed from this sensor before you can free it from the hood latch support bracket. The sensor's installation requires mounting to the hood latch support bracket with mounting bolts which must be tightened to 10 N.m (89 lb in). After reconnecting the wiring harness connector to the sensor put the CPA back onto the wiring harness connector. To complete the process enable the SIR system after you secure the hood close out panel with pushpin retainers.
