Jeep 5DS48TAZ Driver Air Bag

Vehicles from 1995 onwards have an airbag system for frontal collision protection. The system includes an airbag module in the steering wheel and sometimes the instrument panel. In 1995-96 models, the impact sensor is in the airbag module, while in 1997 onwards, a control module is under the driver's seat. Disarming the system is crucial when working near airbag components to prevent accidental deployment. For 1995-96 models, disarm by rolling down the window, removing the steering wheel hub cover, and unscrewing the arming screw. For 1997 onwards, disconnect the battery cable and wait for discharge. To arm, reconnect the cable and turn the ignition key to On. If the airbag clock spring is uncentered, center it to prevent damage.
