Precautions/Procedures
)General Precautions

ped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or
deformation:
- Airbags- Cable reel- SRS unit- Seat belt tensioners
N
)-
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system, lf
it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output is
10 mA (0,01 A) or less when switched to the smallest
value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher
output could damage the airbag circuit or cause acci-
dental deployment and possible injury.
Do not install used SRS Dans from another vehicle,
When making SRS repairs, use only new pans.
Except when performing electrical inspections,
always disconnect both the negative cable and posi-
tive cable from the batterv. and wait at least three
minutes before beginning work.
Replacement of the combination light and wiper/
washer switches and cruise control switch can be
done without removing the steering wheel:
- Combination light and wiper/washer switch replace-
ment {see section 231.- Cruise control sevresume switch replacement (see
section 41.

turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful not
