Driver Seat Slide Position Sensor

Your vehicle is equipped with a driver

seat slide position sensor as a part of

the supplemental restraint system. The

sensor is located under the driver seat.

The sensor determines whether the

driver seat is fore or aft of a reference

position and sends the seat position to

the diagnostic module (SAS unit).

The SAS unit is designed to control the

deployment of the driver air bag

depending on how close the driver

seat is to the steering wheel.

The air bag/front seat belt

pretensioner system warning light

fl

ashes if the sensor has a possible

malfunction (page 2-66).
