vehicle.
CAUTION : To avoid injury while deploying an air-
bag or a pretensioner in the vehicle, observe the
following precaution :
S Before deploying the airbags, remove all loose ob-
jects from the airbag’s expansion area.
S Deploy the airbags with the vehicle doors closed
and the side windows open.
S Deploy the airbags only in an evacuated area. Ser-
vice personnel who must be present during the de-
ployment should be at least 10 meters(33 feet) in
front of the vehicle.
S Do not connect the voltage source until after having
completed all other preparations for the deployment
of airbags.
S Allow a deployed airbag module or pretensioner
cool for 30 minutes before handling.
S Wear gloves and eye protection during the disposal
procedure.
S If the deployment fails, disconnect the voltage
source and wait 5 minutes before approaching the
vehicle.

Deployment Procedure
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 executed immediately without waiting for
one–minute time period to expire. Failure to tem-
porarily disable the SIR during service can result
in unexpected deployment, personal injury and
unnecessary SIR repairs.
1. Disconnect both battery cables and place the bat-
tery at least 10 meters (33 feet) from the vehicle.
2. Remove the driver side knee bolster or instrument
panel lower cover from the steering column. Refer
to Section 9G, Interior Trim.
3. At the lower steering column, cut the two wires
leading from the supplemental inflatable re-
straints(SIR) harness to the clock spring.
4. Strip 13mm(0.5 inch) of the insulation from the end
of the wires leading to the clock spring.
5. Use two additional wires, each at least 10 me-
ters(33 feet) long, to reach from the deployment
battery to the inflator module.
6. Strip 13mm(0.5 inch) of the insulation from the end
of these two additional wires.
7. Twist the two wires together at one end.
8. Place the twisted ends of the two wires near the
deployment battery. Do not connect the wires to the
battery at this time.
9. Using the free ends of the 10 meters(33 feet) wires
leading to the clock spring, make two splices, one
at each wires from the airbag modules.
10. Wrap the wires with insulation tape.
11. Now that the free ends of the 10 meters(33 feet)
wires are spliced to the airbag module wires, and
the ends that are twisted together are near the de-
ployment battery. Clear the area.
12. Untwist the wires that near the deployment battery.
13. Touch one wire to the positive battery terminal and
touch the other wire to the negative battery termi-
nal. The airbag will deploy.
14. Repeat this procedure for the passenger airbag,
side airbags and pretensioners.
15. Using proper precautions, dispose of the deployed
airbags/pretensioners. Refer to ”Deployed Airbag
Module Disposal Procedure” in this section.

FRONT SEAT BELT
PRETENSIONERS
CAUTION : Tempering with seat belt pretensioner
creates the risk of an injury from unexpected deploy-
ment. Therefore, the driver airbag module should
never be disassembled.
The seat belt pretensioners(with load limiter for some ve-
hicles) are assembled with each front seat belt retractors
to retract the seat belt webbing when accounted frontal
collision. The seat belt pretensioners are controlled by
sensing and diagnostic module(SDM). The seat belt pre-
tensioner contains an igniter charge and a gas generator
to pull the seat belt webbing. The seat belt pretensioner
must be replaced after an accident that causes its activa-
tion.
The seat belt pretensioner also contains a shorting bar to
prevent current from travelling through the seat belt pre-
tensioner during servicing. The shorting bar is disengaged
when the connector is connected.
SENSING AND DIAGNOSTIC
MODULE (SDM)
CAUTION : During the service procedures, be careful
when handling the SDM. Never shake or jar the SDM.
Never apply power to SIR when the SDM is not rigidly
attached to the vehicle. All SDM mounting bolts and
grounding nuts must be fully tightened. Failure to fol-
low these precautions could cause deployment and
result in personal injury.
The SDM is located on the floor beneath the floor console
assembly. The SDM performs the following functions :
S Monitors the supplemental inflatable restraints(SIR)
electrical components and sets a diagnostic trouble
code(DTC) when malfunction is detected.
S Records any faults that are discovered.
S Displays SIR diagnostic trouble codes and system
status information when connected to a scan tool.
S Illuminates the airbag indicator to alert the driver to
any fault.S Provides a reserve power source to deploy the air-
bags and pretensioners if an accident has disabled
the normal power source.
S Monitors vehicle velocity changes to detect frontal
impacts, which are severe enough to warrant de-
ployment.
S Causes current to flow through the airbag modules
and pretensioner to cause deployment if a frontal
impact of sufficient force is detected.
The SDM contains no user–serviceable parts.
AIRBAG WARNING LAMP
The instrument cluster contains an airbag warning indica-
tor and sensing and diagnostic module(SDM). The SDM
performs a turn–on test when the ignition is turned ON.
The SDM flashes the airbag indicator seven times by sup-
plying an intermittent ground to the indicator lamp circuit.
After flashing seven times, the airbag indicator will turn off
if no more malfunctions have been detected.
If the SDM has detected malfunctions in the internal and
external circuits, which could potentially affect the opera-
tion of the supplemental inflatable restraints(SIR), the air-
bag indicator stays on. Some malfunctions could result in
non–deployment when necessary or deployment under
conditions which would not normally result in deployment.
When the SDM is not properly attached to its connector,
the airbag circuit is shorted to ground because there is a
shorting bar in the SDM electrical connector. The shorting
bar is disengaged when proper connection is made, but if
a poor connection exists the SDM connector supplied a
ground to the airbag indicator independently of the SDM,
and the airbag indicator turns on.
CLOCK SPRING
CAUTION : Disassembling the clock spring can cause
injury or cause the clock spring to malfunction.
CAUTION : Over–rotating the clock spring (over 3 and
one quarter turns to one direction) without the steer-
ing wheel in position could damage the clock spring
and result in an inoperative driver airbag.
There is a coil assembly in the steering which is referred
to as a clock spring because of its internal resemblance to
the type of spring used in a mechanical clock. The coil
SECTION : 9A
BODY WIRING SYSTEM
CAUTION : Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool
or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable will help
prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted.
