(b) Using a belt tension gauge, check the drive belt tension.
Belt tension gauge:
DENSO BTG-20 (95506-00020)
Borroughs No. BT-33-73F
Drive belt tension:
New belt
Used belt160 ± 20 lbf
100 ± 20 lbf
If the belt tension is not as specified, adjust it.
HINT:
ºNew beltº refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on a running engine.
ºUsed beltº refers to a belt which has been used on a run-
ning engine for 5 minutes or more.
After installing a belt, check that it fits properly in the
ribbed grooved.
Check by hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out
of the groove on the bottom of the pulley.
After installing a new belt, run the engine for about 5 min-
utes and recheck the belt tension.
4. VISUALLY CHECK GENERATOR WIRING AND
LISTEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES
(a) Check that the wiring is in good condition.
(b) Check that there is no abnormal noise from the generator
while the engine is running.
5. INSPECT CHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
(a) Warm up the engine and then turn it off.
(b) Turn off all accessories.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ºONº. Check that the charge warn-
ing light is lit.
(d) Start the engine. Check that the light goes off.
If the light does not go off as specified, troubleshoot the charge
light circuit.
6. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD
HINT:
If a battery/generator tester is available, connect the tester to
the charging circuit as per manufacturer's instructions.
(a) If a tester is not available, connect a voltmeter and amme-
ter to the charging circuit as follows:
Disconnect the wire from terminal B of the generator
and connect it to the negative (-) tester probe of the
ammeter.

INSTALLATION
NOTICE:
Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When re-
placing parts, replace with new parts.
Never reuse the airbag sensor assembly involved in
a collision when the airbag has deployed.
Never repair a sensor in order to reuse it.
1. INSTALL AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
(a) Using a torx wrench, install the airbag sensor assembly
with the 3 screws.
Torx wrench: T40 (Part No. 09042- 00020 or locally
manufactured tool)
Torque: 20 N´m (200 kgf´cm, 14 ft´lbf)
(b) Connect the connector.
NOTICE:
Installation of the connector is done after the sensor
assembly has been installed.
Make sure the sensor assembly is installed to the
specified torque.
If the sensor assembly has been dropped, or there are
cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or
connector, replace the sensor assembly with a new
one.
When installing the airbag sensor assembly, take
care that the SRS wiring does not interfere with other
parts and is not pinched between other parts.
After installation, shake the sensor assembly to
check that there is no looseness.
