)Actuator Test
't.Disconnect the actuator cable from the actuator rod
and the 4P connector.
Connect battery power to the No 4 terminal and
ground to the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 terminals.
Connect a vacuum pump to the vacuum hose Then
apply vacuum to the actuator.

5. With voltage and vacuum still applied, try to pull the
actuator rod out by hand. You should not be able to
oull it out. ll you can, it is defective
1.
Disconnect ground from the No.3 terminal. The actu-
ator rod should return lf it does not return, but the
vent hose and filter are not plugged, the solenoid
valve assembly is defective.
Repeat steps 2 through 5, and disconnect ground
from the No. 1 terminal. The actuator rod should
return. lI it does not return, but the vent hose and
filter are not plugged. the solenoid valve assembly
is defective.
It you replace the solenoid valve assembly, be sure
to use new O-rings on each solenoid.
Disconnect power and ground from the 4P connector.
Disconnect the vent hose from the actuator. Connect
a vacuum pump to the actuator vent hose port, and
apply vacuum. The actuator rod should pull in com-
pletely. lf not, the vacuum valve is stuck open.
Replace the actuator'

Troubleshooting
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCI Ghart -'96 - 97 Models (cont'd)
NOTE:* l: In case of an intermittent failure DTC g-1, it means there was an internal failure of the SRS unit or a faultv SRS indicator light circuit. Do the troubleshooting for intermittent failures (see page 24-15).*2: lt both DTC 9-2 and DTC 5-1 are indicated, do the troubleshooting for DTC g-2.*3: Apply to the '97 model coupe HX and DX.*4: DTC cannot be read with a Honda PGM Tester; check by jumping the SCS service connector.
