    • Disconnect the airbag connector.
    • Remove the old module using a socket set.
    • Install the new module and reconnect the connector.

  • Seat Belt Replacement:

    • Remove the seat belt anchor using a socket set.
    • Install the new seat belt assembly and secure it properly.

4. System Reset and Testing
