Awesome video, thank you! I’ve been told by the dealer that I need both airbag impact sensors replaced. Is there a video showing how to replace the other one? The part in the link is $279 for the pair and my Chevy dealer wants $795 to replace both. Even without me having a lift for convenience that looks like a 30 minute job. This is why dealers have the reputation they do. Thanks for supporting DIY stuff that is doable by most people that have gotten this far.

Just looked at my 2011 Silverados sensors and my hex bolt is on the top, directly under the radiator and the bottom of the bolt has a reverse torx that are rusted round. I may or may have not room with box wrench, but who TF installed it like that?! If i can't get them out without removing half my front end I'll just mount them next to the old ones. 🤬

Best video i have seen for this fiw on a 2009 Silverado.

[@bryantjones8039]

Thank you for the video. How can tell which sensor it is or is it just the (1) sensor? Also is the process the same for the 2014 Silverado?

[@michaelmiller8733]

my question though is this part from the link supplied interchangeable on a 2007-2008 Silverado because if you search for the sensor under one of those years, it will come up with a different part number, same looking part but 2 different numbers

Thank you!

You can't get to bolts on 2010 Silverado thier underneath radiator. You have to relocate them if you don't want to take whole front end apart.

[@davidsmith6440]

Replaced both sensors still reading front impact sensors

[@blaneleary5200]

The lights will not go out unless you clear the code . Thanks for leaving that out

[@thorstenluehmann9034]
