• Q: How to replace the front air bag sensor on 2007 Cadillac SRX?

  A: The first step for replacing the Inflatable Restraint Front End Sensor is disabling the SIR system. Take off the connector position assurance (CPA) (1, 6) from the wiring harness connector to the Inflatable restraint front end sensor (3, 4), and remove the wiring harness connector (2, 5) from the front end sensor (3, 4). It should be noted that, the front end sensor mounting fastener (8, 9) has left handed threads; loosen this fastener present on the upper tie bar and then extract the front end sensor (3, 4) from the upper tie bar. Before mounting, clean the mounting surface for any dirt, grease, or impurities and mounting the sensor (3, 4) horizontally so that the arrow on the sensor points forward towards the front of the car. Mounting fasteners (8, 9) are installed and tightening the fastener to 9 N.m (80 lb in). Use the harness wiring connector (2, 5) to join the front end sensor (3, 4), and use the CPA (1, 6) to join the wiring harness connector on the front end sensor. Finally, enable the SIR system.
