Check for loose retainer (A) and rubber seals (B).
The backs of some connectors are packed with
dielectric grease. Add grease if necessary. lf thegrease is contaminated, replace it.
lnsert the connector all the way and make sure it is
securelv locked.
Position wires so that the open end of the cover faces
oown.

Handling Wires and Harnesses. Secure wires and wire harnesses to lhe frame with
their respective wire ties at the designated locations.. Remove clips carefully; don't damage their locks (A).
Slip pliers (A) under the clip base and through the
hole at an angle, then squeeze the expansion tabs to
release the clip.
After installing harness clips, make sure the harness
doesn't interfere with any moving pans.
Keep wire harnesses away from exhaust pipes and
other hot parts, from sharp edges of brackets and
holes, and from exposed screws and bolts.
Seat grommets in their grooves properly {A). Do not
leave grommets distorted (B).

Body Electrical
General Troubleshooting Information (cont'dl
Five-step Troubleshooting
'1. Verify The Complaint
Turn on allthe components in the problem circuit
to verify the customer complaint. Note the
symptoms. Do not begin disassembly or testing
until you have narrowed down the problem area.
2. Analyze The Schematic
Look up the schematic for the problem circuit.
Determine how the circuit is supposed to work by
tracing the current paths from the power feed
through the circuit components to ground. lf
several circuits fail at the same time, the fuse or
ground is a Iikely cause.
Based on the symptoms and your understanding of
the circuit operation, identify one or more possible
causes of the problem.
3. lsolate The Problem By Testing The Circuit
Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made
in step 2. Keep in mind that a logical, simple
procedure is the key to efficient troubleshooting.
Test for the most likely cause of failure first, Try to
make tests at points that are easily accessible.
4. Fix The Problem
Once the specific problem is identified. make the
repair. Be sure to use proper tools and safe
proceoures.
5. Make Sure The Circuit Works
Turn on all components in the repaired circuit in all
modes to make sure you've fixed the entire
problem. lf the problem was a blown fuse, be sure
to test all of the circuits on the fuse. Make sure no
new problems turn up and the original problem
does not recur.

Seat Belts
Inspection (cont'd)
RetraEtor, Rear Center
1. Before installing the retractor, check that the seat
belt can be pulled out freely.
2, Make sure that the seat belt does not lock when the
retractor (A) is leaned slowly up to 15' from the
mounted position.
lnsideForward
3,
4.
Lean the retractor over 40', and make sure that the
seat belt does not lock when pulled out over 900
mm (35.4 in.). Do not aftempt to disassemble the
retractor.
Replace the seat belt with a new assembly if there
is any abnormality. Do not disassemble any part of
the seat belt for any reason.
23-10
\,J
In-vehicle
1. Check that the seat belt is not twisted or caught on
anything.
2. After installing the anchors. check for free
movement on the anchor bolts. lf necessary,
remove the anchor bolts and check that the
washers and other parts are not damaged or
improperly installed.
3. Check the seat belts for damage or discoloration.
Clean with a shop towel if necessary. Use only
soap and water to clean.
NOTE: Dirt build-up in the loops of the upper
anchors can cause the seat belts to retract slowly.
Wipe the inside of the loops with a clean cloth
dampened in lsopropyl alcohol.
Check that the seat belt does not lock when pulled
out slowly. The seat belt is designed to lock only
during a sudden stop or impact.
For rear center shoulder belt, check that the seat
belt locks when pulled out over 400 mm (15.7 in.)
with the seat-back folded down.
Make sure that the seat belt will retract
automatically when released.
For each passenger's seat belt, check the seat belt
retractor locking mechanism ALR (automatic
locking retractor). This function is for securing child
seats.
-1 Pullthe seat belt allthe way outto engage the
ALR. The seat belt should retract with a
ratcheting sound, but not extend. This is
normal.
-2 To disengage the ALR, release the seat belt and
allow itto fully retract, then pullthe seat belt
out part-way. The seat belt should retract and
extend normally.
Replace the seat belt with a new assembly if there
is any abnormality. Do not disassemble any part of
the seat belt for any reason.

Airbag Handling and Storage
Do not disassemble an airbag, lt has no serviceable
parts. Once an airbag has been deployed, it cannot be
repaired or reused.
For temporary storage of an airbag during service,
observe the following precautions.
. Store the removed airbag with the pad surface up.
Never put anything on the airbag.
To prevent damage to the airbag, keep it free from
any oil, grease, detergent, or water,
23-15
. Store the removed airbag on a secure, flat surface
away from any high heat source (exceeding 200'Fi
Never perform electrical inspections to the airbags,
such as measuring resistance.
Do not position yourself in front of the airbag during
removal, inspection, or replacement.
Refer to the scrapping procedures for disposal of a
damaged airbag.

Precautions and Procedures {cont'dl
SRS Unit, Front lmpact Sensors, and Side
lmpact Sensors
. Be careful not to bump or impact the SRS unit, front
impact sensors, or side impact sensors whenever the
ignition switch is ON (ll), or for at least 3 minules after
the ignition switch is turned OFF.
. During installation orreplacement, be careful notto
bump (by impact wrench, hammer, etc.) the area
around the SRS unit, front impact sensors, and sjde
impact sensor. The airbags could accidentally deploy
and cause damage or injury.
After a collision in which any airbags or seat belt
tensioners were deployed. replace the SRS unit, front
impact sensors, and other related components (see
page 23-112). After a collision in which a side airbag
was deployed. replace the side impact sensor on the
deployed side and the SRS unit. After a collision in
which the airbags or the side airbags did not deploy,
inspect for any damage or any deformation on the
SRS unit, front impact sensors, and the side impact
sensors. lf there is any damage, replace the SRS unit
and/or the sensors.
23-16
.j
. Do not disassemble the SRS unit, front impact sensors,
or side impact sensors.
. Turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect the battery
negative cable, and wait at least 3 minules before
beginning installation or replacement of the SBS unit,
or disconnecting the connectors from the SRS unit.
. Be sure the SRS unit, front impact sensors, and side
impact sensors are installed securely. with the
mounting bolts torqued to 9.8 N.m (1.0 kgf.m,7.2 lbf.ft)
. Do not spill wateroroil on the SRS unit, front impact
sensors, or the side impact sensors, and keep them
away from dust.
. Store the SRS unit, front imDact sensors and side
impact sensors in a cool (less than 104"F/40'C) and
dry (less than 80 % relative humidity, no moisture)
area.
