To avoid serious or fatal injury during and following any seat belt or child restraint anchor service, carefully inspect all seat belts, buckles, mounting hardware, retractors, tether straps, and anchors for proper installation, operation, or damage. Replace any belt that is cut, frayed, or torn. Straighten any belt that is twisted. Tighten any loose fasteners. Replace any belt that has a damaged or ineffective buckle or retractor. Replace any belt that has a bent or damaged latch plate or anchor plate. Replace any child restraint anchor or the unit to which the anchor is integral that has been bent or damaged. Never attempt to repair a seat belt or child restraint component. Always replace damaged or ineffective seat belt and child restraint components with the correct, new and unused replacement parts listed in the DaimlerChrysler Mopar® Parts Catalog.To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification system, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), do not modify the front passenger seat assembly or center floor console in any way. Do not use any prior year, subsequent year, secondary or aftermarket seat trim covers. At no time should any Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) or OCS component be modified or replaced with any part except those which are specified for the particular vehicle application in the DaimlerChrysler Mopar® Parts Catalog. Failure to observe these precautions could cause an OCS miscalibration condition, which may result in the passenger airbag failing to deploy when required or deploying when not required.To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop a seat weight sensor or the passenger side front seat assembly to which the sensors are secured as it can damage the sensors or affect their calibration. The seat weight sensors and the passenger side front seat assembly must be handled with care to avoid damage to the sensors. Do not sit upon or place any loads upon a passenger side front seat while it is removed from its mounts in or outside of the vehicle. If an individual sensor is dropped or damaged, replace the sensor with a new and unused unit. If a seat has been dropped during removal or loaded while removed from its mounts, replace each of the seat weight sensors with new and unused units. Failure to observe this warning could result in an accidental, incomplete, or improper passenger side front supplemental restraint deployment.To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), any time the passenger side front seat assembly has been removed or loosened from the vehicle for service of any vehicle component or system the Occupant Classification System Verification Test must be performed using a diagnostic scan tool and the Occupant Classification Seat Weight special tool following reinstallation. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedures. Failure to observe this warning could result in an accidental, incomplete, or improper passenger side front supplemental restraint deployment.

Position the front seat belt buckle (2) lower anchor onto the inboard side of the seat cushion frame (1).Install and tighten the screw (3) that secures the front seat belt buckle lower anchor to the seat cushion frame. Tighten the screw to 45 N·m (33 ft. lbs.).On the driver side only, reconnect the seat belt switch pigtail wire connector (4) to the seat wire harness.Reinstall the inboard seat cushion trim cover J-clip onto the seat cushion trim wire.Reinstall the front seat into the vehicle. (Refer to 23 - BODY/SEATS/SEAT - FRONT - INSTALLATION).For the driver side on all vehicles or the passenger side on vehicles that are not equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), reconnect the battery negative cable.For the passenger side on vehicles equipped with the (OCS) only, do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. The supplemental restraint system verification test procedure should be performed following service of any supplemental restraint system component. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - VERIFICATION TEST).Following successful completion of the supplemental restraint system verification test procedure, perform the Occupant Classification System Verification Test using a diagnostic scan tool and the Occupant Classification Seat Weight special tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedures.
