• Q: How to Service and Repair an Air Bag Sensor on 2000 Toyota Tacoma?

  A: The service and repair of the impact sensor starts with removing the battery which requires the bolt and battery clamp removal followed by battery and battery carrier removal. The next step involves disconnecting the front Air Bag sensor right connector only when the sensor remains installed before unfastening the 2 nuts. Primary connection of the front Air Bag sensor LH connector must be done in the same way before removing its 2 bolts and sensor. The front Air Bag sensors LH and RH require installation through two bolt connections and two nut connections while the sensor arrows must face forward of the vehicle before torquing up to 20 Nm (205 kg.cm, 15 ft.lb). Install the sensors by connecting their connectors at the end of installation while applying the designated torque to secure the sensor. Replace the sensor with a new one whenever you detect drops or detect any kinds of defects. Security of the electrical connection check mechanism is necessary to avoid diagnostic system detection of malfunction codes when coupling the connector properly. Repace the battery carrier and battery before fastening the battery clamp with its bolt.
