(1) Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position,
disconnect the negative battery cable and tape
the terminal.
Caution
Wait at least 30 seconds after disconnectingthe battery cable before doing any further
work. The SRS system is designed to retainenough voltage to deploy the air bag for ashort time even after the battery has been
disconnected, so serious injury may result
from unintended air bag deployment if, work
is done on the SRS system immediately afterthe battery cable is disconnected.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) - ~~~-~~~~~a~~g~~~s 52B-552. Repair Procedure
(1) If air bag deployed in the collision, remove the deployed
air bag module. (Refer to
P.52B-62.)(2) Check the SRS components using the table shown
below.
If the SRS components are showing any visible damage
such as dents, cracks, or deformation, replace them
with new ones.
Refer to appropriate INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SER-
VICE, P.52B-56.
(3) Conduct self-diagnosis using Multi-use Tester to ensure
entire SRS operates properly except open circuit of air
bag module (22. SQUIB TRBL 2).
(4) Install new air bag module. (Refer to
P.52B-62.)

INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SERVICEIf the SRS components are to be removed or replaced as a result of maintenance, troubleshooting, etc.,
follow each procedure
(P.52B-56 - P.52B-68).L++(
Caution
1.SW components should not be subjected to heat over 93°C (2OO”F), so remove the front impactsensors, SRS diagnosis unit and air bag module and clock spring before drying or baking the
vehicle after painting. Recheck SRS system operability after re-installing them.
2.If the SRS components are removed for the purpose of check, sheet metal repair, painting, etc.,they should be stored in a clean, dry place until they are reinstalled.
FRONT IMPACT SENSORS
Caution1. Never repair or disassemble a front impact
sensor. If faulty, replace it.
2.Handle the front impact sensors very careful-
ly, taking care not to drop them or otherwise
subject them to impact. If a sensor is seen tobe dented, cracked, deformed or rusted,
replace it with a new one.
3.Replace sensors with new ones after the air
bag has deployed.
