5–8840–2421–0 SRS Driver/Passenger
Load Tool
901RS146The SRS Driver/Passenger Load Tool 5–8840–2421–0 is
used only when called for in this section. It is used as a
diagnostic aid and safety device to prevent inadvertent air
bag assembly deployment.
The load tool has three yellow connectors attached to its
case.
The three small connectors are electrically functional and
serve as resistive load substitutions.
No more than two connectors are used at any time. One
of the small connectors is used to substitute for the load of
the driver air bag assembly when it is connected at the top
of the column to the SRS coil assembly. Another small
connector is used to substitute for the load of the driver air
bag assembly and the SRS coil assembly when it is
connected at the base of the column to the SRS wiring
harness. The third small connector is used to substitute
for the load of the passenger air bag assembly and
pretensioner seat belt assembly when connected to the
passenger air bag assembly and pretensioner seat belt
assembly harness connector.
By substituting the resistance of the load tool when called
for, a determination can be made as to whether an inflator
circuit component is causing system malfunction and
which component is causing the malfunction. The loadtool should be used only when specifically called for in the
diagnostic procedures.
NOTE: If comand to use 5–8840–2421–0 load tool when
repair the pretensioner seat belt, connect load tool
connector to use for driver air bag and/or passenger air
bag connector.

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.
