GENERAL PROCEDURES
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Deactivation and
Reactivation
Deactivation
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury
in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Carry a live air bag module with the air bag and trim cover pointed away from
your body. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Do not set a live air bag module down with the trim cover face down. This will
reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: After deployment, the air bag surface can contain deposits of sodium
hydroxide, a product of the gas generant combustion that is irritating to the skin. Wash your
hands with soap and water afterwards.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air
bag deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: The safety belt buckle pretensioner and safety belt retractor pretensioner are
pyrotechnic devices. Never probe a pretensioner electrical connector. Doing so could result in
pretensioner or air bag deployment and could result in personal injury.
WARNING: Vehicle sensor orientation is critical for proper system operation. If a vehicle
equipped with an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) is involved in a collision, inspect
the sensor mounting bracket and wiring pigtail for deformation. Replace and properly position
the sensor or any other damaged supplemental restraint system (SRS) components whether or
not the air bag is deployed.
WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only.
Remove from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to remove could result in injury and possible
violation of vehicle safety standards. SECTION 501-
