SEAT REPAIR
1. Remove the passenger seat. For additional information, refer to Workshop Manual (WSM) 501-10.
2. Using a clean and protected work surface, position the seat on the side so that the inboard side of the
seat is facing down.
NOTICE: The Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor is very sensitive to vibration damage.
Do not attempt to bend or hammer on any surrounding parts of the seat frame that hold
the OCS sensor. Also, take care not to bump the OCS connector because it breaks very
easily.
SERVICE TIP: If you are using a hacksaw handle, extend the blade at least 12.7 cm (5 inches) to
prevent the handle from hitting and breaking the sensor connector.
3. Using a 32 teeth per inch metal hacksaw blade, insert the blade down alongside the seat frame.
Using gentle force on the hacksaw blade, cut the metal as you move the blade through the contact
area. Do this at both locations at each side of the sensor. See Figures 1 and 2 (Seat disassembled
for clarity).

4. Using a wire feeler gauge, check to make sure that there is a minimum 0.7 mm (0.028 in) clearance
between the seat frame and seat track. See Figure 3.
5. IMPORTANT: Vacuum all metal chips and debris from seat track. Metal chips and debris
may affect movement efforts of the seat.
SERVICE TIP: To prevent cross threading, hand start the bolts when installing the seat. This is
necessary because the bolts have a unique triangular shape on the end of the bolt and is
designed to make its own threads when it is first installed at the assembly plant.
IMPORTANT: NEW bolts must be used when installing seats in a Flex vehicle.
6. Install the passenger seat. For additional information, refer to WSM Section 501-10.

 

Basically taking where the seat bottoms out and cutting a new gap for it.

 

hmmmm.. I am not sure if I like how they are fixing that. Wonder if it will make the seat sag in the middle? or if the support of the seat or the longevity is going to be hurt.

 

So literally a hack job lol. As long as it doesn't compromise seat integrity.

 

No no, its will look a little better when I get the pictures with it. there is supposed to be a gap at the bottom of the sensor to where to sliding rail is for the seat, they are saying to space that out. I think it may be the contact point for ground, with it unloaded it is always touching so the sensor basically always calls the seat occupied, I think, haven't looked much into it yet

 

I don't need that air bag anyways. Should have seen the wife's face when I said that lol.

 

If you saw how little we are actually cutting you'd be surprised. No chance of it causing any issues or jeopardizing the seat integrity. We are basically shaving the track

 

is this why my manual track passenger seat always has the air bag on? as in the light has never been lit for bag off?

 

if the light is off and the seat is un occupied the airbag is off

if the seat is occupied and the light is on the airbag is off

if the seat is occupied and the light is off the airbag is on

 

Just got this. Any pics? Don't feel like wasting a day at dealer if easily corrected.
