Important: 

   • To avoid accidental deployment of the airbags, the shorting bars close in order to short the connectors when the connectors are separated.
   • Twisted-pair wires provide an effective shield that helps protect sensitive electronic components from electrical interference. If the wires were covered with shielding, install new shielding.
   • In order to prevent electrical interference from degrading the performance of the connected components, you must maintain the proper specification when making any repairs to the twisted-pair wires shown :
      - The wires must be twisted a minimum of 9 turns per 31 cm (12 in) as measured anywhere along the length of the wires
      - The outside diameter of the twisted wires must not exceed 6.0 mm (0.25 in)
