SUPPLEMENTAL INFLATABLE RESTRAINTS (SIR) 8B – 89
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
HANDLING, INSTALLATION AND
DIAGNOSIS
S Airbag modules should not be subjected to temper-
ature above 65 degrees Celsius(149 degrees Fahr-
enheit).
S An airbag and SDM should not be used if it has
been dropped from height of 0.9 meters(3 feet) or
greater.
S When an SDM is replaced, it must be oriented with
the arrow on the SDM pointing toward the front of
the vehicle.
S It is very important for the SDM to be installed flat
on the mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle’s
longitudinal axis.
S To avoid setting diagnostic trouble codes(DTCs), do
not apply power to the SIR unless all components
are connected or a diagnostic chart request it.
S The SIR Diagnostic System Check must be the
starting point of any SIR diagnostics. The SIR Diag-
nostic System Check will verify proper airbag indi-
cator operation and will lead you to correct chart to
diagnose any SIR malfunctions. Bypassing these
procedures may result in extended diagnostic time
incorrect parts replacement.
REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS
REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT
CAUTION : Any repairs to the vehicle’s structure
must return it to the original production configu-
ration. Deployment requires replacement of
SDM, the inflator modules and a dimensional in-
spection of the steering column.
S If any SIR components are damaged, they must be
replaced. If SIR components mounting points are
damaged, they must be repaired or replaced.
S Never use SIR parts from another vehicle. This
does not include remanufactured parts purchased
from an authorized source.
S Do not attempt to service the SDM, the clock spring
or other airbag modules, these items must be re-
placed if they are defective.
S Verify the part number of replaced airbag modules.
Some inflator modules look identical but contain
different internal components.

ACCIDENT WITH DEPLOYMENT
COMPONENTS REPLACEMENTS
All SIR components must be replaced after frontal
crash involving airbag deployment. After deployment,
a powdery residue may be on the surface of the air-
bag. The powder consists primarily of corn-
starch(used to lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by–
products of the chemical reaction. The sodium
hydroxide then quickly reacts with atmospheric mois-
ture and is converted to sodium bicarbonate(also
known as baking soda). Therefore, it is unlikely that
sodium hydroxide will be present after deployment.
Replace the following SIR components.
CAUTION : Wear gloves and safely glasses dur-
ing the disposal procedure. Refer to ”Deployed
airbag module disposal procedure” in this sec-
tion.

S Airbag modules and pretensioners
S SIR wiring
S Clock spring
ACCIDENT WITHOUT DEPLOYMENT
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Certain inspection must be performed after any
crash, whether the airbag has deployed or not. :
S The steering column must be dimensionally in-
spected.
S Inspect the knee bolsters and mounting points for
distortion, bending and cracking or other damages.
S Inspect the instrument panel(I/P) and steering col-
umn reinforcement plate for distorsion, bending and
cracking or other damage.
S Inspect the I/P braces for distortion, bending and
cracking or other damage.
S Inspect the seat belt and mounting points. Refer to
Section 8A, Seat Belts.
SENSING AND DIAGNOSTIC
MODULE (SDM)
CAUTION : During service procedure, be very
careful when handling the SDM. Never strike or
jar the SDM. Never power the supplemental inflat-
able restraints(SIR) when the SDM is not rigidly
attached to the vehicle. All SDM mounting bolts
must be carefully tightened , and the arrow on the
SDM must be point toward the front of the vehicle
to ensure proper operation of the SIR. The SDM
could be activated if it is powered when it is not
rigidly attached to the vehicle, resulting in unex-
pected deployment and possible injury.

DAEWOO V–121 BL4
Important : If the vehicle interior has been exposed to ex-
tensive water intrusion such as water leaks, driving
through high water, flooding or other causes, then the
SDM and SDM connector may need to be replaced. With
the ignition OFF, inspect the area of SDM, including the
carpet. If any significant soaking or evidence of previous
soaking is detected, the water must be removed, the water
damage repaired and the SDM and SDM connector must
be replaced. Before attempting any of these repairs, the
SRS must be disabled. Refer to ”Disabling the SIR” in this
section.
Removal and Installation Procedure
1. Disable the supplemental inflatable restraints(SIR).

DRIVER AIRBAG MODULE
Removal and Installation Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
CAUTION : The sensing and diagnostic mod-
ule(SDM) can maintain sufficient voltage to
deploy the airbags and pretensioners for 1 min-
ute after the ignition is OFF and the fuse has been
removed. If the airbags and pretensioners are not
disconnected, do not begin service until one
minute has passed after disconnecting power to
SDM. If the airbags are disconnected, service can
be excuted immediately without waiting for one–
minute time period to expire. Failure to tempo-
rarily disable the SIR during service can result in
unexpected deployment, personal injury and un-
necessary SIR repairs.
2. Remove two driver airbag module mounting bolts
and discard them.

DAEWOO V–121 BL4
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
HEADLAMPS–ON REMINDER CHIME
When the headlamp switch is in the headlamps–on or
parking lamps–on position, voltage is applied to the chime
module. When the ignition is in ON, ACC or START, volt-
age is applied through the fuse block to the module. These
two voltages are sensed, and the chime module is not
sounded.
When the ignition is not in ON, ACC or START, the module
loses voltage. The chime module senses change. If the
voltage is still available, it is applied to sound the chime.
The chime can be turned off by turning the headlamp
switch off. The module no longer senses voltage from the
headlamp switch, so the chime module does not sound.
HEADLAMPS
The headlamps are controlled by the multifunction lever
located on the left side of the steering column. They will
come on with the ignition switch in any position. Turning
the headlamp switch to the first position turns on the park-
ing lamps, the license plate lamps and the instrument pan-
el illumination. Turning the switch to the second position
turns on all of the previous lamps and the headlamps.
Turning the switch to the OFF position turns off all the
lamps.
Headlamp high beams and low beams are also controlled
by this lever. When the headlamps are on, pushing the le-
ver away from the driver until the switch clicks changes the
lamp from low beam to high beam. An indicator lamp on
the instrument cluster assembly will come on when the
high beam headlamps are on. To return the headlamps to
low beam, pull the lever toward the driver.
The headlamps must be aimed for proper illumination of
the road. Headlamp aim should be checked whenever a
new headlamp assembly is installed, or whenever service
repairs to the front end area may have disturbed the head-
lamp assembly or its mountings.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
The Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) will come on when:
S The ignition is ON.
S The light is OFF.
S The parking brake is released.
When the exterior lights are on, the DRL will turn off. To
turn the DRL off when idling, apply the parking brake.
PARKING AND TURN SIGNAL LAMPS
The parking lamps can be turned on by turning the lighting
switch to the first position. The parking lamps can be
turned off by turning the switch to the OFF position.When the turn signals are activated, the front and rear turn
signal lamps flash to signal a turn. The turn signals work
only when the ignition is ON.
The turn signals are controlled by the light switch on the
left side of the steering column. Moving the lever all the
way up or down (past the detent) will turn on the front and
rear turn signals. When the turn is completed, the lever will
return to horizontal and the turn signals will stop flashing.
For changing lanes, or for shallow turns in which the steer-
ing wheel does not turn far enough to cancel the signal,
move the signal lever only to the first detent and hold it
there. When the lever is released, it will return to horizontal
and the turn signals will cancel.
FOG LAMPS
The fog lamp switch is on the instrument panel to the right
of the steering column. To use the fog lamps, first turn on
the headlamps or the parking lamps. Then push the fog
lamp switch. The indicator light in the switch will illuminate
to indicate that the fog lamps are on. Push the switch again
to turn off the fog lamps. The indicator light will then go off.
The fog lamps should not be used as a substitute for the
headlamps.
The fog lamps must be aimed for proper illumination of the
road. Fog lamp aim should be checked when a new bulb
is installed or if service or repairs in the front end area may
have disturbed the fog lamp mountings.
REAR COMBINATION LAMPS
The taillamps, stoplamps, turn signal lamps and backup
lamp are one assembly.
Turning on either the headlamps or the parking lamps will
also turn on the taillamps. When the brake pedal is
pushed, the taillamps will glow brighter to serve as sto-
plamps.
The center high–mounted stoplamp is located in the rear
window and will come on when the brake pedal is pressed.
LICENSE PLATE LAMP
The license plate lamps will come on when the headlamps
or the parking lamps are on. The license plate lamps are
mounted above the license plate.
INTERIOR COURTESY LAMP
The courtesy lamp is located on the headliner just behind
the front seats. The lamp switch has three positions. If the
switch is left in the center position, the lamp will go on
whenever a door is opened and go off when it is closed.
In the ON position, the lamp will stay on until it is turned off.
In the OFF position, the lamp will not come on, even when
a door is opened.
LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LAMP
The luggage compartment lamp is located under the deck
lid sill plate on the notchback. The lamp is located on the
left–side wheelhouse trim panel on the hatchback. It will
come on whenever the luggage compartment is opened.

console. To use the lighter, push it in completely. When the
lighter is hot, it will release itself from contact with the heat-
ing element. The lighter and the heating element can be
damaged if the lighter is not allowed to release itself fully
from the heating element.
ASHTRAY
The ashtray is located below the audio system. To access
the ashtray, pull it out from the center console. The ashtray
lamp will go on when the parking lamps or the headlamps
are turned on.
INSTRUMENT PANEL VENTS
The center and the side vents in the instrument panel can
be adjusted up and down and from side to side. The side
vents can also be aimed toward the side windows in order
to defog them.
GLOVE BOX
The glove box can be opened by pulling up on the latch
handle. The glove box must be removed in order to gain
access to the passenger’s side airbag module.
DIGTAL CLOCK
The digital clock is located in the instrument panel, above
the audio system. The clock is capable of a 12–hour or a
24–hour display.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
The instrument cluster is located above the steering col-
umn and in the instrument cluster trim panel. The instru-
ment cluster contains the instruments that provide the
driver with vehicle performance information. The instru-
ment cluster contains a speedometer, an odometer, a trip
odometer, a temperature gauge, a fuel gauge, and several
indicator lamps. For replacement of the indicator lamp
bulbs contained in the instrument cluster, refer to ”Instru-
ment Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications” and”Instru-
ment Cluster Indicator Lamps” in this section.
SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER/TRIP
ODOMETER
The speedometer measures the speed of the vehicle in
km/h (mph in some countries). It consists of an instrument
cluster gauge connected to the vehicle speed sensor
(VSS) on the transaxle output shaft.The odometer measures in kilometers (miles in some
countries) the total distance the vehicle has traveled since
it was manufactured. It consists of an instrument cluster
gauge connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft.
The trip odometer measures the distance the vehicle has
traveled since the odometer was last reset. It consists of
an instrument cluster gauge connected to the VSS on the
transaxle output shaft. The trip odometer can be reset to
zero at any time so that the driver can record the distance
traveled from any starting point.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge consists of an instrument cluster gauge
connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank
only when the ignition switch is turned to ON or ACC.
When the ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer
may come to rest at any position.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The temperature gauge consists of an instrument cluster
gauge connected to a temperature sensor that is in con-
tact with the circulating engine coolant.
The temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the
coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather
may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of the
gauge. The engine is overheating if the pointer moves into
the red zone at the upper limit of the gauge.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR
LAMPS
The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that indi-
cate the functioning of certain systems or the existence of
potential problems with the operation of the vehicle. The
indicator lamps are replaceable. For replacement of the in-
dicator lamps contained in the instrument cluster, refer to
”Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications”
and”Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps” in this section.
