9A-8 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
The SRS control unit is connected to the SRS wiring
harness by a 52–pin connector. This harness
connector uses a shorting clip across certain terminals
in the contact area. This shorting clip connects the
“AIR BAG” warning lamp to ground when the SRS
control unit harness connector is disconnected or CPA
(Connector Position Assurance) is not inserted even if
completely connected. This will cause the “AIR BAG”
warning lamp to come “ON” steady whenever the
ignition switch is at the ON or START positions with
the SRS control unit disconnected.

Component Description
SRS Control Unit
WARNING: DURING SERVICE PROCEDURES, BE
VERY CAREFUL WHEN HANDLING A SRS
CONTROL UNIT NEVER STRIKE OR JAR THE SRS
CONTORL UNIT. NEVER POWER UP THE SRS
WHEN THE SRS CONTROL UNIT IS NOT RIGIDLY
ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE. ALL SRS
CONTROL UNIT AND MOUNTING BRACKET
FASTENERS MUST BE CAREFULLY TORQUED
AND THE ARROW MUST BE POINTED TOWARD
THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE TO ENSURE
PROPER OPERATION OF THE SRS. THE SRS
CONTROL UNIT COULD BE ACTIVATED WHEN
POWERED WHILE NOT RIGIDLY ATTACHED TO
THE VEHICLE WHICH COULD CAUSE
DEPLOYMENT AND RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY.
The SRS control unit is designed to perform the
following functions in the SRS:
1. Energy Reserve — The SRS control unit maintains
24–
Volt Loop Reserve (24VLR) energy supply to
provide deployment energy when ignition voltage is
lost in a frontal crash.
2. Frontal Crash Detection — The SRS control uni
t
monitors vehicle velocity changes to detect frontal
crashes which are severe enough to warran
t
deployment.
3. Air Bag Deployment — When a frontal crash o
f
sufficient force is detected, the SRS control unit
will cause enough current to flow through the air
bag assembly to deploy the air bag.
4. Malfunction Detection —The SRS control uni
t
performs diagnostic monitoring of SRS electrical
components and sets a diagnostic trouble code
when a malfunction is detected.
5. Frontal Crash Recording — The SRS control uni
t
records information regarding SRS status during
frontal crash.
6. Malfunction Diagnosis —The SRS control uni
t
displays SRS diagnostic trouble codes and system
status information through the use of a scan tool.
7. Driver Notification — The SRS control unit warns
the vehicle driver of SRS malfunctions b
y
controlling the “Air Bag” warning lamp.
“Air Bag” Warning Lamp
Ignition voltage is applied to the “AIR BAG” warning
lamp when the ignition switch is at the ON or START
positions. The SRS control unit controls the lamp by
providing ground with a lamp driver. The “AIR BAG”
warning lamp is used in the SRS to do the following:
1.
Verify lamp and SRS control unit operation by
flashing SEVEN (7) times when the ignition switch
is first turned “ON”.
2. Warn the vehicle driver of SRS electrical system
malfunctions which could potentially affect the
operation of the SRS. These malfunctions could
result in nondeployment in case of a frontal crash
or deployment for conditions less severe than
intended.
The “AIR BAG “ warning lamp is the key to driver
notification of SRS malfunctions. For proper lamp
operation, refer to the “SRS Diagnostic System Check”
in this section.

On–Vehicle Service
Service Precaution
WARNING: WHEN PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
AROUND SRS COMPONENTS OR SRS WIRING,
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES LISTED BELOW TO
TEMPORARILY DISABLE THE SRS. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW PROCEDURES COULD RESULT IN
POSSIBLE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL
INJURY OR OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS
REPAIRS.
The SRS control unit in Driver–Passenger SRS can
maintain sufficient voltage to cause a deployment for
up to 15 seconds after the ignition switch is turned
“OFF,” the battery is disconnected, or the fuse
powering the SRS control unit is removed.
Many of the service procedures require removal of the
“SRS” fuse, and disconnection of the air bag assembly
from the deployment loop to avoid an accidental
deployment. If the air bag assembly is disconnected
from the deployment loop as noted in the “Disabling
the SRS” procedure that follows, service can begin
immediately without waiting for the 15 second time
period to expire.
Disabling The SRS
Removal
Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove key.
1. Remove SRS fuse “SRS”, from the side of the
driver side of instrument panel fuse block o
r
disconnect battery.
2. Disconnect yellow connector at the base o
f
steering column.
3. Remove glove box assembly, refer to “Passenge
r
Air Bag Assembly Replacement” in this manual.
4. Disconnect yellow connector behind the glove box
assembly.
CAUTION: With the “SRS” fuse removed and
ignition switch “ON”, the “AIR BAG” warning lamp
will be “ON”. This is normal operation and does
not indicate an SRS malfunction.
Enabling The SRS
Installation
CAUTION: Never use the air bag assembly from
another vehicle and difference model year air bag
assembly.
Use only new air bag assembly proper to the
TFR/S which is being repaired.
Turn ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove key.
1. Connect yellow connector passenger air bag
assembly.
2. Install glove box assembly. Refer to “Passenger ai
r
bag assembly replacement” in this manual.
3. Connect yellow connector at the base of steering
column.
4. Install “AIR BAG” fuse “SRS” to the side of the
driver side of instrument panel fuse block o
r
connect battery.
Turn ignition switch to “ON” and verify that the “AIR
BAG” warning lamp flashes seven times and then
turns “OFF.” If it does not operate as described,
perform the “SRS Diagnostic System Check” in this
manual.
Handling / Installation / Diagnosis
1. Air bag assembly should not be subjected to
temperatures above 65
C (150F).
2.
Air bag assembly, and SRS control unit should not
be used if they have been dropped from a height
of 100 centimeters (3.28 feet) or more.
3. When a SRS control unit is replaced, it must be
oriented with the arrow on the sensor pointing
toward the front of the vehicle. It is very important
for the SRS control unit to be located flat on the
mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle datum
line. It is important that the SRS control unit
mounting surface is free of any dirt or other foreign
material.
4. Do not apply power to the SRS unless all
components are connected or a diagnostic chart
requests it, as this will set a diagnostic trouble
code.
5. The “SRS Diagnostic System Check” must be the
starting point of any SRS diagnostics. The “SRS
Diagnostic System Check” will verify proper “AIR
BAG” warning lamp operation and will lead you to
the correct chart to diagnose any SRS
malfunctions. Bypassing these procedures ma
y
result in extended diagnostic time, incorrect
diagnosis, and incorrect parts replacement.

CAUTION: When fasteners are removed, always
reinstall them at the same location from which
they were removed. If a fastener needs to be
replaced, use the correct part number fastener fo

that application. If the correct part number
fastener is not available, a fastener of equal size
and strength (or stronger) may be used. fasteners
that are not reused, and those requiring thread
locking compound will be called out. The correct
torque value must be used when installing
fasteners that require it. If the above conditions
are not followed, parts or system damage could
result.
