THIS BULLETIN IS BEING ISSUED TO REVISE THE LOCATION FOR THE PASSENGER INFLATOR MODULE YELLOW 2-WAY CONNECTOR REFERENCED IN THE "ENABLE THE SIR SYSTEM" AND "DISABLE THE SIR SYSTEM" PROCEDURES IN SECTION 9J OF THE SERVICE MANUAL.

THE PASSENGER INFLATOR MODULE (INFLATABLE RESTRAINT I/P MODULE) YELLOW 2-WAY CONNECTOR LOCATION CHANGED ABOUT TWO MONTHS INTO PRODUCTION.

IF YOU OPEN THE TRAP DOOR IN THE REAR OF THE I/P COMPARTMENT (GLOVE BOX) AND THE 2-WAY CONNECTOR IS NOT VISIBLE, THE I/P COMPARTMENT MUST BE REMOVED TO ACCESS THE CONNECTOR. THE CONNECTOR IS CLIPPED TO THE I/P STRUCTURE OUTBOARD OF THE I/P COMPARTMENT.
