SRS AIRBAG
PRECAUTION
NOTICE:
The TERCEL is equipped with an SRS, which comprises a driver airbag and front passenger
airbag. Failure to carry out service operations in the correct sequence could cause the SRS to
unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident. Further, if a mis-
take is made in servicing the SRS, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate when required. Be-
fore performing servicing (including removal or installation of parts, inspection or replace-
ment), be sure to read the following items carefully, then follow the correct procedure described
in the repair manual.
Malfunction symptoms of the SRS are difficult to confirm, so the DTCs become the most impor-
tant source of information when troubleshooting the SRS, always inspect the DTCs before dis-
connecting the battery.
Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front
passenger airbag assembly and airbag sensor assembly should be inspected.
(See page RS-9, RS-22, RS-34)
Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
Never disassemble and repair the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly or air-
bag sensor assembly in order to reuse it.
If the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly or airbag sensor assembly has been
dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector, replace
them with new ones.
Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kW/V minimum) for troubleshooting the system's
electrical circuits.
Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instruction
on the notices.
After work on the SRS is completed, check the SRS warning light. (See page DI-148)
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution in the
IN section.
CAUTION:
Work must be started 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº position and
the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (The SRS is equipped with a
back-up power source so that if work is started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the nega-
tive (-) terminal cable of the battery, the SRS may be deployed.)
When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, the memory of the clock
and audio system will be canceled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents mem-
orized in the audio memory system. When work is finished, reset the audio systems as before
and adjust the clock. To avoid erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back-
up power supply from outside the vehicle.
Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during
repairs.
Do not expose the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly or airbag sensor as-
sembly directly to hot air or flames.

(a) All connectors in the SRS are colored in yellow to distin-
guish them from other connectors. Connectors having
special functions and specifically designed for SRS are
used in the locations shown above to ensure high reliabil-
ity. These connectors use durable gold-plated terminals.
(1) Terminal Twin-Lock Mechanism
Each connector has a two-piece construction con-
sisting of a housing and a spacer. This secures the
locking of the terminal by two locking devices (the
spacer and the lance) to prevent terminals from
coming out.

(3) Electrical Connection Check Mechanism
This mechanism is designed to electrically check if
connectors are connected correctly and complete-
ly. The electrical connection check mechanism is
designed so that the connection detection pin con-
nects with the diagnosis terminals when the con-
nector housing lock is in the locked condition.
(4) Connector Twin-Lock Mechanism
With this mechanism connectors (male and female
connectors) are locked by two locking devices to in-
crease connection reliability.
If the primary lock is incomplete, ribs interfere and prevent the
secondary lock.

(c) Install the SST.
(1) Connect the SST connector to the airbag connec-
tor.
SST 09082-00700
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.
(2) Move the SST to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the
front of the vehicle.
(3) Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.
NOTICE:
Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.
(4) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the negative (+) termi-
nal.
(d) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Confirm that no-one is inside the vehicle or within
10 m (33 ft) of the vehicle.
(2) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
(e) Dispose of the steering wheel pad.
CAUTION:
The steering wheel pad is very hot when the airbag is
deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes af-
ter deployment.
Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a steer-
ing wheel pad with a deployed airbag.
Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
a deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
(f) When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and scrap
the vehicle with the steering wheel pad still installed.
2. DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING OF STEERING
WHEEL PAD ONLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the steering wheel pad only, never use
the customers vehicle to deploy the airbag.

(d) Install the SST.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the front
passenger airbag assembly is tied.
(2) Place at least 2 tires over the tire to which the front
passenger airbag assembly is tied. The top tire
should have the wheel installed.
(3) Tie the tires together with 2 wire harnesses.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harnesses are tight. It is very dan-
gerous if loose wire harnesses result in the tires coming
free due to the shock of the airbag deploying.
HINT:
Place the SST connector and wire harness inside tires. Provide
at least 1 m (3 ft) of slack for the wire harness.
(4) Connect the SST connector to the front passenger
airbag assembly connector.

(e) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the battery negative
(-) terminal.
(2) Confirm that no-one is within 10 m (33 ft) of the tires
covering the front passenger airbag assembly.
(3) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
(f) Dispose of the front passenger airbag assembly.
CAUTION:
The front passenger airbag assembly is very hot
when the airbag is deployed, so leave it alone for at
least 30 minutes after deployment.
