PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR LOOP IS SHORTED
TO GROUND
Circuit Description
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the sensing and
diagnostic module(SDM) will perform turn–on test to diag-
nose critical malfunctions within SDM itself.
Upon passing these test ignition and deployment loop volt-
ages are measured to ensure that they are within their nor-mal voltage ranges. The SDM monitors the voltages at the
driver low and the passenger low to detect shorts to
ground or voltage in the deploy loops.
DTC 84 Will Set When
S The side airbag sensor wiring of passenger’s high
is shorted to ground.
S The side airbag sensor wiring of passenger’s low is
shorted to ground.

CAUTION : The sensing and diagnostic module(SDM)
can maintain sufficient voltage to deploy the airbags
and pretensioners for 1 minute after the ignition is
OFF and the fuse has been removed. If the airbags
and pretensioners are not disconnected, do not be-
gin service until one minute has passed after discon-
necting power to SDM. Otherwise, injury could result.
CAUTION : During service procedure, be very careful
when handling the SDM. Never strike or jar the SDM.Never power the supplemental inflatable re-
straints(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 op-
eration of the SIR. The SDM could be activated if it is
powered when it is not rigidly attached to the vehicle,
resulting in unexpected deployment and possible in-

Removal and Installation Procedure
CAUTION : The sensing and diagnostic mod-
ule(SDM) can maintain sufficient voltage to
deploy the airbags and pretensioners for 1minute
after the ignition is OFF and the fuse has been re-
moved. 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 the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the trim from B pillar.
3. Remove the side airbag sensor mounting bolts.
4. Remove the side airbag sensor.
5. Installation should follow the removal procedure in
the reverse order.
Tightening torque of the side airbag sensor mounting
bolts is 8 NSm (71 lb–in).
FRONT SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
For removal and installation, refer to Section 8A, Seat
Belts.
AIRBAG MODULE DEPLOYMENT
(INSIDE OF VEHICLE)
Deploy the airbags before disposing them. If a vehicle
to be scrapped, the airbag may be deployed inside the
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.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
SUPPLEMENTAL INFLATABLE
RESTRAINTS(SIR)
The supplemental inflatable restraints(SIR) is a safety de-
vice used in conjunction with the seat belt. The air bag
does not replace the fuction of the seatbelt. The driver and
the passengers must always fasten their seat belts and
adjust them for a proper fit.
The SIR is designed to protect the driver and the front seat
passenger in the event of a significant frontal impact to the
vehicle. The airbags deploy if the force is applied from a
direction within 30 degrees of the vehicle’s center line.
The SIR system consists of a
S Driver airbag module
S Driver side airbag module
S Passenger airbag module
S Passenger side airbag module
S Driver’s and front passenger’s seat belt pretension-
ers(and load limiter for some model).
S Sensing and diagnostic module(SDM)
S Clock spring.
S Wire harness and connectors.
S AIRBAG indicator on the instrument cluster.
S Side airbag sensor
AIRBAG MODULES
Driver Airbag Module
CAUTION : Tempering with driver airbag module
creates the risk of an injury from unexpected deploy-
ments. Therefore, the driver airbag module should
never be disassembled.
The driver airbag module is under the center pad of the
steering wheel. The driver airbag module contained an ig-
niter charge and a gas generator to inflate the folded air-
bag.The airbag connector contains a shorting bar, which
makes the circuit shorted when the connector is discon-
nected. The shorting bar prevents current from travelling
through the driver airbag module during servicing. The
shorting bar is disengaged when the connector is con-
nected.
Passenger Airbag Module
CAUTION : Tempering with passenger airbag module
creates the risk of an injury from unexpected deply-
ment. Therefore, the passenger airbag module
should never be disassembled. The passenger airbag
module is on the passenger part of the instrument
panel. The passenger airbag module contains an ig-
niter charge and a gas generator to inflate the folded
airbag .
The passenger airbag module is on the passenger part of
the instrument panel. The passenger airbag module con-
tains an igniter charge and a gas generator to inflate the
folded airbag .
The airbag connector contains a shorting bar, which
makes the circuit shorted when the connector is discon-
nected. The shorting bar prevents current from travelling
through the passenger airbag module during servicing.
The shorting bar is disengaged when the connector is con-
nected.
Side Airbag Module
CAUTION : Tempering with side airbag module
creates the risk of an injury from unexpected deploy-
ments. Therefore, the driver airbag module should
never be disassembled.
The side airbag modules are in the driver’s and passen-
ger’s seats. The side airbag module contains an igniter
charge and a gas generator to inflate the folded airbag .
The airbag connector contains a shorting bar, which
makes the circuit shorted when the connector is discon-
nected. The shorting bar prevents current from travelling
through the side airbag module during servicing. The
shorting bar is disengaged when the connector is con-
nected.
