AIR BAG WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTORS
Air bag wire harness can be identified easily as it is covered with a
yellow protection tube. Be very careful when handling it.
When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire harness,
connector or terminal is found, replace wire harness, connectors
and terminals as an assembly.
When installing it, be careful so that the air bag wire harness is not
caught or does not interfere with other parts.
Make sure all air bag system grounding points are clean and
grounds are securely fastened for optimum metal-to-metal con-
tact. Poor grounding can cause intermittent problems that are dif-
ficult to diagnose.
DISPOSAL
Do not dispose of the live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) modules
and the live (inactivated) seat belt pretensioners. When disposal is
necessary, be sure to deploy the air bag according to deployment
procedure described under ªAir Bag (Inflator) Modules Disposalº
and to activate the pretensioner according to activation procedure
described under ªSeat Belt Pretensioners Disposalº.
WARNING:
Failure to follow proper air bag (inflator) module and seat
belt pretensioner disposal procedures can result in air bag
deployment and pretensioner activation which could cause
personal injury. Undeployed air bag (inflator) module and
inactivated seat belt pretensioner must not be disposed of
through normal refuse channels.
The undeployed air bag (inflator) module and inactivated
seat belt pretensioner contain substances that can cause
severe illness or personal injury if the sealed container is
damaged during disposal.

ACCIDENT WITH OR WITHOUT DEPLOYMENT ± COM-
PONENT INSPECTIONS
Certain air bag and restraint system components must be in-
spected after any crash, whether the air bag deployed or not.
Those components are:
Steering column and shaft joints
± Check for length, damage and bend according to ªChecking
Steering Column for Accident Damageº in SECTION 3C1.
Steering column bracket and capsules
± Check for damage and bent.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
Steering wheel and driver air bag (inflator) module
± Check for damage or air bag (inflator) module fitness.
± Check trim cover (pad surface) for cracks.
± Check wire harness and connector for damage or tightness.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
Contact coil and combination switch assembly
± Check wire harness and connectors for damage or tightness.
± Check contact coil case for damage.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace.
Instrument panel member and reinforcement
± Check for any distortion, bending, cracking or other damage.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace.

For driver air bag (inflator) module
For passenger air bag (inflator) module
1. Stretch deployment harness to full length 10 m (33 ft).
2. Connect connectors.
3. Power source (12V vehicle battery).
4. Short the two deployment harness leads.

7) Stretch the deployment harness from the driver or passenger
air bag (inflator) module to its full length 10 m (33 ft).
8) Place a power source near the shorted end of the deployment
harness. Recommended application: 12 Volts minimum, 2
amps minimum. A vehicle battery is suggested.
9) Verify that the area around the driver or passenger air bag (in-
flator) module is clear of all people and loose or flammable ob-
jects.
10) [In case of Driver Air Bag (Inflater) Module]
Verify that the driver air bag (inflator) module is resting with its
vinyl trim cover facing up.
[In case of Passenger Air Bag (Inflator) Module]
Verify that the passenger air bag (inflator) module is firmly and
properly secured in passenger air bag (inflator) module deploy-
ment fixture (special tool).
11) Connect the driver or passenger air bag (inflator) module to the
deployment harness connector and lock connector with lock le-
ver.
12) Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to deploy
the air bag (inflator) module.
NOTE:
When the air bag deploys, the rapid gas expansion will
create a substantial report. Wear suitable ear protection.
Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to
deploy the air bag (inflator) module and suitable ear
protection should be worn.
When the air bag deploys, the driver air bag (inflator)
module may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This is a
normal reaction of the driver air bag (inflator) module to
the force of the rapid gas expansion inside the air bag.
After the air bag (inflator) module has been deployed, the
surface of the air bag may contain a powdery residue.
This powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to lu-
bricate the bag as it inflates) and byproducts of the
chemical reaction.
