SRS component testing
The SRS components are triggered using relatively
low operating currents, always adhere to the
following precautions:
WARNING: Do not use a multimeter or other
general purpose test equipment on SRS system
components or accidental deployment may
occur. Use only Testbook to diagnose system
faults.
WARNING: Do not use electrical test equipment
on the SRS harness while it is connected to any
of the SRS system components. It may cause
accidental deployment and personal injury.
Never apply electrical power to an SRS component
unless instructed to do so as part of an approved test
procedure.
The SRS Diagnostic Control Unit is a non-
serviceable component and no attempt should be
made to repair or modify the unit.Component handling
The SRS components are sensitive and potentially
hazardous if not handled correctly; always comply
with the following handling precautions:
WARNING: The SRS components are sensitive
and potentially hazardous if not handled
correctly; always comply with the following
handling precautions:
lNever drop an SRS component. The airbag
diagnostic control unit is a particularly
shock sensitive device and must be handled
with extreme care. Airbag modules and seat
belt pre-tensioner units could deploy if
subjected to a strong shock.
lNever wrap your arms around an airbag
module. If an airbag module has to be
carried, hold it by the cover, with the cover
uppermost and the base away from your
body.
lNever transport airbag modules or seat belt
pre-tensioners in the cabin of a vehicle.
Always use the luggage compartment of the
vehicle for carrying airbag modules and seat
belt pre-tensioner units.
WARNING: Never attach anything to an airbag
cover or any trim component covering an airbag
module. Do not allow anything to rest on top of
an airbag module.
WARNING: Always keep components cool, dry
and free from contamination.

WARNING: For front seat buckle type pre-
tensioners, hold by the piston tube, with the open
end of the piston tube pointing towards the
ground and the buckle facing away from your
body. Do not cover the end of the piston tube.
DO NOT hold buckle pre-tensioners by the
bracket assembly or steel cable. NEVER point
the piston tube towards your body or other
people.
CAUTION: Do not apply grease or cleaning
solvents to seatbelt pre-tensioner units,
component failure could result.Storage
There are regulations for the safe storage of SRS
components which must be observed, consult your
local authority for details.
WARNING: Airbag modules and seat belt pre-
tensioners are classed as explosive devices. For
overnight and longer term storage, they must be
stored in a secure steel cabinet which has been
approved as suitable for the purpose and has
been registered by the local authority.
WARNING: Store the airbag module with the
deployment side uppermost. If it is stored
deployment side down, accidental deployment
will propel the airbag module with enough force
to cause serious injury.
CAUTION: Improper handling or storage can
internally damage the airbag module, making it
inoperative. If you suspect the airbag module has
been damaged, install a new module and refer to
the Deployment/Disposal Procedures for
disposal of the damaged module.
Always observe the following precautions when
temporarily storing an airbag module:
lEnsure the cover is facing upwards and the
luggage compartment is secured.
lAlways keep components cool, dry and free
from contamination.
lDo not allow anything to rest on the airbag
module.
lStore any removed airbag assembly on a
secure flat surface away from electrical
equipment and heat sources (exceeding 85° C
(185° F).

VEHICLE RECOVERY
Observe the following procedures for vehicle towing
after a collision has taken place:
Towing – SRS components not deployed
Normal towing procedures are unlikely to cause an
SRS module to deploy. However, as a precaution,
switch the ignition off and then disconnect both
battery leads. Disconnect the negative '-' lead first.
Towing – SRS components deployed
Once the driver's airbag has been deployed, the
vehicle must have a front suspended tow. However,
as a precaution, switch the ignition off and then
disconnect both battery leads. Disconnect the
negative '-' lead first.

SRS component manual deployment
If a vehicle is to be scrapped and contains an
undeployed airbag module, the module must be
manually deployed. Always observe the following
precautions:
WARNING: Only personnel who have undergone
the appropriate training should undertake
deployment of airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner
modules.
WARNING: A deployed airbag or seatbelt pre-
tensioner is very hot, DO NOT return to a
deployed airbag module until at least 30 minutes
have elapsed since deployment.
WARNING: Only use approved deployment
equipment, and only deploy SRS components in
a well ventilated designated area. Ensure SRS
components are not damaged or ruptured before
deployment. Notify the relevant authorities.
WARNING: If a vehicle is to be scrapped,
undeployed airbag modules and pre-tensioner
units must be deployed in accordance with the

SRS component replacement policy
The following information details the policy for
replacement of SRS components; either as a result
of a vehicle accident or as a result of vehicle age.
Impacts which do not deploy the airbags or seat
belt pre-tensioners
Check for structural damage in the area of the
impact, paying particular attention to bumper
armatures, longitudinals, crash cans and bracketry.
Impacts which deploy the airbags and/or seat
belt pre-tensioners
The inspection and replacement policy is dependent
on the type and severity of the crash condition. The
following guidelines are the minimum that should be
exercised as a result of the deployment of specific
SRS components.
Front airbag/ seat belt pre-tensioner deployment
(driver and passenger)
If the front airbags and/or seat belt pre-tensioners are
deployed as a result of a front, front angled or side
impact, the following parts must be replaced:
lDriver airbag module
lPassenger airbag module (where fitted)
lSRS flyleads
lSRS DCU
lRotary coupler
lFront seat belt pre-tensioners
In addition, the following should be inspected for
damage and replaced as necessary:
lFront seat belt and buckle tongue (anchorage
points, webbing etc.)
lFascia moulding adjacent to passenger airbag
module (where fitted)
lSteering wheel (if damage is evident)
lFront seat frames and head restraints (if there is
evidence of damage to the seat frame or
cushion pan)
lSteering column (if adjustment is lost or there
are signs of collapse)
lFront seat belt height adjusters on 'BC' posts (5
door models only)
lRear seat belts and seat belt buckles (webbing,
buckle covers, body anchorage and tongue
latching function)Rear Impact
If the seat belt pre-tensioners are deployed during a
rear impact, the following components must be
replaced:
lSeat belt pre-tensioners
lFront and rear automatic seat belt assemblies
used during an impact.
lSRS DCU
In addition, the following components should be
inspected for damage and replaced as necessary:
lFront seat frames
lFront seat belts and buckle (retractors,
webbing, tongue latching, buckle covers, body
anchorages and 'D' loops)
lSeat belt height adjusters (5 door models only)
lRear seat belts and seat belt buckles (webbing,
buckle covers, body anchorage and tongue
latching function)
Periodic replacement of SRS components
The performance of the propellants within airbags
and seat belt pre-tensioners will deteriorate over a
period of time. As a result, it is essential that the
airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners are periodically
replaced to maintain occupant safety. Airbags, seat
belt pre-tensioners and the rotary coupler should be
replaced at the recommended intervals.
