  • Changing front bumper.... Airbags gonna blow on me?

    Im going to be changing my front bumper. Where are the airbag sensors? I dont want to be unbolting it and the airbag go off. Do I need to worry about anything. Its a 94 camaro

    I'm not familiar with the airbags on these particular vehicles, but you should disconnect the battery. If you pull the battery, and make sure that you let the car sit for a while before working on it, you will not have to worry about the airbags. One good way to do this is to pull the battery the night before you work on the car, then you will know for sure that there is not juice going to the airbag to get you in trouble.

        I'd just disconnect the battery. most service manuals recommend waiting atleast 30seconds before doing any work because the airbag system holds enough power to deploy even if there is no power for the first 30sec. Then if you wanted to pull the airbag fuse but you shouldnt really need to with the cable disconnected.
