properly perform ªAir Bag Diagnostic System
Check Flow Tableº may also result in
misdiagnosis. Therefore, check ªAIR BAGº
warning lamp circuit again according to ªAir
Bag Diagnostic System Check Flow Tableº.
2) Is ªAIR BAGº warning lamp circuit in good

warning lamp circuit.
21) Clear diagnostic trouble codes.
2) Is DTC 61 set ?Substitute a known-
good SDM and recheck.Recheck air bag system,
referring to ªAir Bag
Diagnostic System
Check Flow Tableº.
NOTE:
Upon completion of inspection and repair work, perform following items.
1) Reconnect all air bag system components, ensure all components are properly mounted.
2) Repeat ªAir Bag Diagnostic System Check Flow Tableº, referring to p. 10B-11 to confirm that the trouble
has been corrected.

HANDLING AND STORAGE
SDM
WARNING:
Never power up air bag system when SDM is not rigidly at-
tached to the vehicle. Otherwise, personal injury may result.
CAUTION:
After detecting one time of such collision as to meet deploy-
ment conditions, the SDM must not be used.
Refer to ªDiagnosisº when checking the SDM.
Never attempt disassembly of SDM.
When storing SDM, select a place where neither high tempera-
ture nor high humidity is anticipated and oil, water and dust are
kept off.
If SDM was dropped from a height of 90 cm (3 ft) or more or if it
is found to be damaged or deformed, replace it with a new one.
If installation part of SDM was damaged, repair that part com-
pletely before reinstallation.
All SDM and mounting bracket fasteners must be carefully
torqued and the arrow must be pointed toward the front of the ve-
hicle to ensure proper operation of the air bag system.

REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT
CAUTION:
All air bag system components, including the electrical harness (component mounting points), must
be inspected after an accident. If any components are damaged or bent, they must be replaced even
if air bag system activation did not occur.
Never use air bag system parts from another vehicle.
Do not attempt to service the parts below. Service of these parts is by replacement only.
± Driver/Passenger air bag (inflator) module
± Driver/Passenger seat belt pretensioner
± SDM
± Contact coil and combination switch assembly
± Air bag wire harness
Proper operation of the sensors and air bag system requires that any repairs to the vehicle structure
return it to its original production configuration.
CAUTION:
After detecting one time of such collision as to meet deployment conditions, the SDM must not be used.
Refer to ªDiagnosisº when checking the SDM.
ACCIDENT WITH DEPLOYMENT ± COMPONENT
REPLACEMENT
Certain air bag system components must be replaced. Those com-
ponents are:
Driver and passenger air bag (inflator) modules
± Replace with new one.
Driver and passenger seat belt pretensioners
± Replace with new one as an assembly.
SDM after detecting such collision as to meet deployment condi-
tions
± Replace with new one.

ACCIDENT WITH OR WITHOUT DEPLOYMENT ± COM-
PONENT INSPECTIONS
Certain air bag and restraint system components must be in-
spected after any crash, whether the air bag deployed or not.
Those components are:
Steering column and shaft joints
± Check for length, damage and bend according to ªChecking
Steering Column for Accident Damageº in SECTION 3C1.
Steering column bracket and capsules
± Check for damage and bent.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
Steering wheel and driver air bag (inflator) module
± Check for damage or air bag (inflator) module fitness.
± Check trim cover (pad surface) for cracks.
± Check wire harness and connector for damage or tightness.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty
part.
Contact coil and combination switch assembly
± Check wire harness and connectors for damage or tightness.
± Check contact coil case for damage.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace.

4) Remove driver or passenger air bag (inflator) module from ve-
hicle, referring to SECTION 3C1 or 10B.
WARNING:
Always carry live air bag (inflator) module with trim cov-
er away from you.
When storing a live air bag (inflator) module or when
leaving a live air bag (inflator) module unattended on a
bench or other surface, always face the bag and trim
cover up and away from the surface. As the live passen-
ger air bag (inflator) module must be placed with its bag
(trim cover) facing up, place it on the workbench with
a slit or use the workbench vise to hold it securely at its
lower mounting bracket.
This is necessary so that a free space is provided to al-
low the air bag to expand in the unlikely event of acci-
dental deployment.
Failure to follow procedures may result in personal inju-
ry.
5) Temporarily place driver or passenger air bag (inflator) module
on the workbench or the vise according to above WARNING.
