DRIVER AIRBAG
DESCRIPTION
The driver airbag protective trim cover is the most
visible part of the driver airbag. The airbag used in
this model is a Next Generation-type that complies
with revised federal airbag standards to deploy with
less force than those used in some prior models. The
driver airbag is located in the center of the steering
wheel, where it is secured with two screws to the
steering wheel armature. Concealed beneath the
driver airbag trim cover are the horn switch, the
folded airbag cushion, the airbag retainer or housing,
the airbag inflator, and the retainers that secure the
trim cover to the airbag housing. The resistive mem-
brane-type horn switch is secured with heat stakes to
the inside surface of the airbag trim cover, between
the trim cover and the folded airbag cushion. The air-
bag inflator is a conventional pyrotechnic-type unit
that is secured with nuts to four studs on the back of
the stamped metal airbag housing.
The driver airbag trim cover has locking blocks
molded into the back side of it that engage a lip
formed around the perimeter of the airbag housing.
Two stamped metal retainers then fit over the infla-
tor mounting studs on the back of the airbag housing
and tabs on the retainer are engaged in slots on the
inside of the trim cover, securely locking the cover
into place. One horn switch pigtail wire has an eyelet
terminal connector that is captured on the upper left
inflator mounting stud between the inflator and the
upper trim cover retainer. The connector insulator of
the other horn switch pigtail wire is routed between
the upper right inflator mounting stud and the infla-
tor, where it is captured by a small plastic that is
pushed onto the stud. The driver airbag cannot be
repaired, and must be replaced if deployed or in any
way damaged. The driver airbag trim cover and horn
switch are available as a unit, and may be disassem-
bled from the driver airbag for service replacement.
OPERATION
The driver airbag is deployed by an electrical sig-
nal generated by the Airbag Control Module (ACM)
through the driver airbag line 1 and line 2 (or squib)
circuits. When the ACM sends the proper electrical
signal to the airbag inflator, the electrical energy
generates enough heat to initiate a small pyrotechnic
charge which, in turn, ignites chemical pellets within
the inflator. Once ignited, these chemical pellets burn
rapidly and produce a large quantity of nitrogen gas.
The inflator is sealed to the back of the airbag hous-
ing and a diffuser in the inflator directs all of the
nitrogen gas into the airbag cushion, causing the
cushion to inflate. As the cushion inflates, the driver
airbag trim cover will split at predetermined break-out lines, then fold back out of the way along with
the horn switch. Following an airbag deployment, the
airbag cushion quickly deflates by venting the nitro-
gen gas towards the instrument panel through the
porous fabric material used on the steering wheel
side of the airbag cushion.
Some of the chemicals used to create the nitrogen
gas are considered hazardous in their solid state,
before they are burned, but they are securely sealed
within the airbag inflator. However, the nitrogen gas
that is produced when the chemicals are burned is
harmless. A small amount of residue from the burned
chemicals may cause some temporary discomfort if it
contacts the skin, eyes, or breathing passages. If skin
or eye irritation is noticed, rinse the affected area
with plenty of cool, clean water. If breathing pas-
sages are irritated, move to another area where there
is plenty of clean, fresh air to breath. If the irritation
is not alleviated by these actions, contact a physician.
REMOVAL
The following procedure is for replacement of a faulty
or damaged driver airbag. If the driver airbag has been
deployed, the clockspring and the steering column
assembly must also be replaced. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING - REMOVAL)

switch is in its installed position, the only compo-
nents visible through the dedicated opening of the
cluster bezel are the switch face plate and nomencla-
ture, the key cylinder actuator, and a small round
lens with the text9Off9imprinted on it. The ªOnº
position of the switch is designated by text imprinted
upon the face plate of the switch, but is not illumi-
nated. The remainder of the switch is concealed
behind the switch face plate and the instrument
panel cluster bezel.
The passenger airbag on-off switch housing is con-
structed of molded plastic and has three integral
mounting tabs. These mounting tabs are used to
secure the switch to the back of the molded plastic
switch face plate with three small screws. The
molded plastic face plate also has three integral
mounting tabs that are used to secure the switch and
face plate unit to the instrument panel carrier with
three additional screws. Two short pigtail wires with
molded plastic connector insulators exit the back of
the switch housing and connect the switch to the
vehicle electrical system through two dedicated take
outs of the instrument panel wire harness. The har-
ness take outs are equipped with molded plastic con-
nector insulators that are keyed and latched to
ensure proper and secure switch electrical connec-
tions. The passenger airbag on/off switch cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
switch must be replaced.
OPERATION
The passenger airbag on-off switch allows the cus-
tomer to turn the passenger airbag function On or
Off to accommodate certain uses of the right front
seating position where airbag protection may not be
desired. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for specific recommendations on when to enable
or disable the passenger airbag. The Off indicator of
the switch will be illuminated whenever the switch is
turned to the Off position. The ignition key is the
only key or object that should ever be inserted into
the switch. The on-off switch requires only a partial
key insertion to fully depress a spring-loaded locking
plunger. The spring-loaded locking plunger prevents
the user from leaving the key in the switch. The key
will be automatically ejected when force is not
applied. To actuate the passenger side airbag on/off
switch, insert the ignition key into the switch key
actuator far enough to fully depress the plunger and
rotate to the desired switch position. When the
switch key actuator is rotated to its clockwise stop
(the key actuator slot will be aligned with the Off
indicator lamp), the Off indicator is illuminated and
the passenger airbag is disabled. When the switch is
rotated to its counterclockwise stop (the key actuator
slot will be in a vertical position), the Off indicatorwill be extinguished and the passenger airbag is
enabled.
The passenger airbag switch is connected in series
between the Airbag Control Module (ACM) and the
passenger airbag inflator unit. When the switch is in
the On position, the switch connects the ACM
directly to the passenger airbag inflator. When the
switch is in the Off position it interrupts the inflator
circuits, but replaces the normal resistance in these
circuits with an internal resistor. Thus, the ACM is
unable to distinguish the mode of the switch and still
sends an electrical signal as though it were deploying
the passenger airbag when it detects a sufficient
impact. However, the switch position should not be
changed while the ignition switch is in the On posi-
tion, as the ACM may detect a fault, record a Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC), and illuminate the Airbag
indicator in response to a momentary open it senses
in the passenger airbag inflator circuits as the on/off
switch changes states.
