1When any deployable device (driver-side air bag, passenger-side air bag, side air bag, seat belt pretensioner, etc.) or combination of devices are deployed and/or the Restraints Control Module (RCM) has Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1231 (Crash Data Memory Full) in memory, the repair of the vehicles air bag system is to include the removal of all deployed devices and the installation of NEW deployable devices, the removal and installation of NEW impact sensors, and removal and installation of a NEW RCM. NOTE: On some models the front impact sensors are incorporated in the RCM.
2If head-impact air bag has deployed, headliner, pillar upper trim panels and attaching hardware must be replaced, along with any other damaged components and hardware. All roofline sheet metal and head-impact tether rivet nut must be restored to original condition prior to installing NEW head-impact air bag module. The head impact air bag must be install in the vehicle using NEW torque-prevailing type J-nuts (W709759 S439), if equipped. Use of this J-nut is mandatory so as to reduce the risk of loss of fastener effectiveness. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury in the event of a head impact air bag deployment.
3On 2002-03 Blackwood models, anytime the side air bag has deployed, the seat backrest frame must be replaced. DO NOT attempt to repair the seat backrest frame or side air bag mounting bracket. The seat backrest frame must be installed NEW.
4If a side air bag deployment took place, the seat back pad, trim cover, and side air bag module must be replaced. The seat back frame should be replaced, if necessary (except 2002-03 Blackwood models).
5All seat belt assemblies, including retractors, buckles, front seat belt support assemblies (slide bar), shoulder belt height adjusters, child safety seat tether bracket assemblies, and attaching hardware should be inspected after any collision. Ford recommends NEW seat belt assemblies be installed, unless a qualified technician finds the assemblies show no damage and operate correctly. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision should also be inspected, and new assemblies installed if either damaged or incorrect operation is noted.
6If vehicle is involved in a collision in which Restraints Control Module (RCM) or crash sensor mounting area is damaged, inspect mounting surface and bracket. If damaged, sensor must be replaced whether or not air bags have deployed.

1When any deployable device or combination of devices have deployed and/or the Restraints Control Module (RCM) has DTC B1231/B1193:00 (Event Threshold Exceeded) in memory, the repair of the vehicle SRS is to include the removal of all deployed devices and the installation of new deployable devices, the removal and installation of new impact sensors and the removal and installation of a new RCM. DTCs must be cleared from all required modules after repairs are carried out.
2If Occupant Classification System Module (OCSM) has DTC B1231/B1193:00 stored in memory, inspect the passenger side floorpan for damage and repair as necessary. For rail-type OCS, inspect the passenger side floorpan for damage and repair as necessary. Install new OCS rails. Do not install a new OCSM unless DTC B1231 cannot be cleared. For weight sensor bolt-type OCS, inspect the passenger side floorpan for damage and repair as necessary. Install a new seat track with OCS weight sensor bolts. DTC must be cleared from the OCSM before carrying out OCS Reset. Do not install a new OCSM unless DTC B1231/B1193:00 cannot be cleared. For bladder-type OCS, inspect for damage and repair as necessary. If installation of an OCS component is required, an OCS service kit must be installed.
3Anytime the Safety Canopy or side air curtain module has deployed, a new headliner and new A-, B- and C-pillar upper trim panels and attaching hardware must be installed. Remove any other damaged components and hardware and install new components and hardware as needed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in the Safety Canopy or side air curtain module deploying incorrectly and increases the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
4When any damage to the impact sensor mounting points or mounting hardware has occurred, repair or install new mounting points and mounting hardware as needed.
5New driver and/or front passenger seat belt systems (including retractors, buckles and height adjusters) must be installed if the vehicle is involved in a collision that results in deployment of the driver and/or front passenger seat belt pretensioners.

4When any damage to the impact sensor mounting points or mounting hardware has occurred, repair or install new mounting points and mounting hardware as needed.
5All seat belt assemblies, including retractors, buckles, front seat belt support assemblies (slide bar), shoulder belt height adjusters, child safety seat tether bracket assemblies, and attaching hardware should be inspected after any collision. Ford recommends NEW seat belt assemblies be installed, unless a qualified technician finds the assemblies show no damage and operate correctly. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision should also be inspected, and new assemblies installed if either damaged or incorrect operation is noted.
