Service Precautions for SRS
Component Service
CAUTION: When fasteners are removed, always
reinstall them at the same location from which they
were removed. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use
the correct part number fastener for that application.
If the correct part number fastener is not available, a
fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger) may
be used. fasteners that are not reused, and those
requiring thread locking compound will be called
out. The correct torque value must be used when
installing fasteners that require it. If the above
conditions are not followed, parts or system damage
could result.
WARNING: WHEN PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
AROUND SRS COMPONENTS OR SRS WIRING,
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES LISTED BELOW TO
TEMPORARILY DISABLE THE SRS. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW PROCEDURES COULD RESULT IN
POSSIBLE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL
INJURY OR OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS REPAIRS.
The SDM in Driver–Passenger SRS can maintain
sufficient voltage to cause a deployment for up to 15
seconds after the ignition switch is turned “OFF,” the
battery is disconnected, or the fuse powering the SDM is
removed.
Many of the service procedures require removal of the
“C–21” fuse, and disconnection of the air bag assembly
from the deployment loop to avoid an accidental
deployment. If the air bag assembly is disconnected from
the deployment loop as noted in the “Disabling the SRS”
procedure that follows, service can begin immediately
without waiting for the 15 second time period to expire.
Disabling The SRS
Removal
Turn the ignition switch to “OFF” and turn the steering
wheel so that the vehicle’s wheels are pointing straight
ahead.
1. Remove SRS fuse “C–21” from left dash side lower
fuse block or disconnect battery.
2. Disconnect yellow 2–pin connector at the base of
steering column.
3 . R e m o v e g l o v e b o x a s s e m b l y ; R e f e r t o “ P a s s e n g e r a i r
bag assembly replacement” in this section.
4. Disconnect passenger air bag assembly yellow 2–pin
connector behind the glove box assembly.
CAUTION: W i t h t h e “ C – 2 1 ” f u s e r e m o v e d a n d
ignition switch “ON,” the “AIR BAG” warning lamp
will be “ON.” This is normal operation and does not
indicate an SRS malfunction.
Enabling The SRS
Installation
Turn ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove key.
1. Connect yellow 2–pin connector passenger air bag
assembly.2. Install glove box assembly. Refer to “Passenger Air
Bag Assembly Replacement” in this section.
3. Connect yellow 2–pin connector at the base of the
steering column.
4. Install “AIR BAG” fuse “C–21” to left dash side lower
fuse block or connect battery.
Turn ignition switch to “ON” and verify that the “AIR BAG”
warning lamp turn on 3.5 seconds and then turns “OFF.” If
it does not operate as described, perform the “SRS
Diagnostic System Check” in this section.
Handling / Installation / Diagnosis
1. Air bag assembly should not be subjected to
temperatures above 93
C (200F).
2. Air bag assembly, and SDM should not be used if they
have been dropped from a height of 100 centimeters
(3.28 feet) or more.
3. When a SDM is replaced, it must be oriented with the
arrow on the SDM pointing toward the front of the
vehicle. It is very important for the SDM to be located
flat on the mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle
datum line. It is important that the SDM mounting
surface is free of any dirt or other foreign material.
4. Do not apply power to the SRS unless all components
are connected or a diagnostic chart requests it, as
this will set a diagnostic trouble code.
5. The “SRS Diagnostic System Check” must be the
starting point of any SRS diagnostics. The “SRS
Diagnostic System Check” will verify proper “AIR
BAG” warning lamp operation and will lead you to the
correct chart to diagnose any SRS malfunctions.
Bypassing these procedures may result in extended
diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect
parts replacements.
Inspections Required After An Accident
CAUTION: C e r t a i n S R S c o m p o n e n t s m u s t b e
replaced after a frontal crash involving air bag
deployment.
In all types of accidents regardless of “Air Bag”
deployment, visually inspect all of the following
components and replace as required:
— Driver air bag assembly
— Passenger air bag assembly
— Driver pretensioner assembly
— Passenger pretensioner assembly
— Steering wheel
— SRS coil assembly
— Steering column
— Knee bolster and instrument panel mounting
attachments
— Driver seat and belt
— Passenger seat and belt
—SDM
SDM always should be checked according to “SDM
Replacement Guidelines.”

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM9J–35
Driver Air Bag Assembly
Service Precautions
WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
FOLLOWED WHEN HANDLING A DEPLOYED AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY. AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY SURFACE MAY CONTAIN A SMALL
AMOUNT OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE, A BY–PRODUCT
OF THE DEPLOYMENT REACTION, THAT IS
IRRITATING TO THE SKIN AND EYES. MOST OF THE
POWER ON THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY IS
HARMLESS. AS A PRECAUTION, WEAR GLOVES
AND SAFETY GLASSES WHEN HANDLING A
DEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY, AND WASH YOUR
HANDS WITH MILD SOAP AND WATER
AFTERWARDS.
WARNING: WHEN CARRYING A LIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY, MAKE SURE THE BAG AND TRIM
COVER ARE POINTED AWAY FROM YOU. NEVER
CARRY AIR BAG ASSEMBLY BY THE WIRES OR
CONNECTOR ON THE UNDERSIDE OF MODULE. IN
THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT, THE
BAG WILL THEN DEPLOY WITH MINIMAL CHANCE
OF INJURY. WHEN PLACING ALIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY ON A BENCH OR OTHER SURFACE,
ALWAYS FACE BAG AND TRIM COVER UP, AWAY
FROM THE SURFACE. NEVER REST A STEERING
COLUMN ASSEMBLY ON THE STEERING WHEEL
WITH THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY FACE DOWN AND
COLUMN VERTICAL. THIS IS NECESSARY SO THAT
A FREE SPACE IS PROVIDED TO ALLOW THE AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY TO EXPAND IN THE UNLIKELY
EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT.
OTHERWISE, PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT.
NOTE: In the event deployment has occurred, inspect
coil assembly wire for any signs of scorching, melting or
any other damage due to excessive heat. If the coil has
been damaged, replace it.
Removal
1. Disable the SRS (Refer to “Disabling the SRS” in this
section).
2. Loosen the air bag assembly fixing bolts from behind
the steering wheel assembly using a TORX
d r i v e r o r
equivalent until the air bag assembly can be released
from steering wheel.

3. Disconnect the yellow 2–pin connector located
behind the air bag assembly and remove air bag
assembly. Refer to “SRS Connectors” in this section
for removal and installation.
