2000 Toyota Land Cruiser Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the Air Bag Sensor Assembly on 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser?

  A: Start Air Bag Sensor Assembly repair procedures by taking out the Front Seat and then proceed to remove the Upper Console Panel followed by the Rear end Console Panel and Heater Control and next arrange the removal of the Rear Console Box along with the Front Console Box and the Center Lower Cluster Finish Panel Assembly. Disconnection of Air Bag sensor connectors should take place after confirming the installation of the Air Bag sensor assembly. Users should install the T40 torx wrench either as Part No. 09042-00020 or use a locally made tool to remove the 3 Air Bag sensor assembly screws. Affix the torx wrench to install the Air Bag sensor assembly using its 3 screws, keep torque at 20 Nm (205 kg.cm, 15 ft.lb) and attach Air Bag sensor connectors which must be completed when the sensor assembly is positioned. The repair process requires absolute dedication to use brand new SRS components because Air Bag sensors damaged in crashes must never be repurposed nor can a sensor requiring repair be salvaged. Look for cracks and dents on the sensor assembly while also verifying the SRS wiring has clear access from other components. The sensor assembly needs verification through a shaking test for looseness after installment before reinstalling all removed components.
