SRS Coil Assembly
The SRS coil assembly consists of two current
carrying coils. This is attached to the steering column
and allows rotation of the steering wheel while
maintaining continuous contact of the drive
r
deployment loop to the driver air bag assembly.
There is a shorting clip on the yellow connector nea
r
the base of steering column which connects the SRS
coil to the SRS wiring harness.
The shorting clip shorts to the SRS coil and driver ai
r
bag assembly when the yellow connector is
disconnected. The circuit to the driver air bag
assembly is shorted in this way to help prevent
unwanted deployment of the air bag when servicing
the steering column or other SRS components.

Air Bag Assemblies
The air bag assembly consists of an inflatable air bag
assembly and an inflator. W hen the vehicle is in a
frontal crash of sufficient force the SRS control unit
causes current flow through the deployment loops.
Current passing through the inflator ignites the
material in the air bag assembly. The gas produced
from this reaction rapidly inflates the air bag assembly.
There is a shorting clip on the driver air bag assembl
y
connector which connects the SRS coil assembly. The
shorting clip shorts across the driver air bag assembl
y
circuits when the driver air bag assembly connector is
disconnected.
The circuit to the driver air bag assembly is shorted in
this way to help prevent unwanted deployment of the
air bag when servicing the driver air bag assembly, the
steering column or other SRS components.




RTW 79ASH001001

There is a shorting clip on the passenger air bag
assembly connector which connects to the SRS
harness. The shorting clip shorts across the
passenger air bag assembly circuit when the
passenger air bag assembly connector is
disconnected. The circuit to the passenger air bag
assembly is shorted in this way to help prevent
unwanted deployment of the air bag when servicing
the passenger air bag assembly, the instrument panel
or other SRS components.

another vehicle or different model year air bag
assembly.
Use only a new air bag assembly matched to the
TFR/S which is being repaired.
CAUTION: Proper operation of the sensors and
supplemental restraint system (SRS) requires that
any repairs to the vehicle structure return it to the
original production configuration. Deployment
requires, at a minimum, replacement of the SRS
control unit, air bag assembly and dimensional
inspection of the steering column. Any visible
damage to the SRS control unit mounting bracket
(s) requires replacement, and the steering column
must be dimensionally inspected, whethe
r
deployment occurred or not.
Accident With Deployment – Component
Replacement And Inspections
Certain SRS components must be replaced or
inspected for damage after a frontal crash involving air
bag deployment. Those components are:
• Air bag assembly
• SRS control unit

CAUTION: Refer to “SRS control unit Replacement
Guidelines” below for important information on
SRS control unit replacement in both deployment
and non-deployment crashes.

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 UNNECESSARY SRS
REPAIRS.
The SRS control unit in Driver–Passenger SRS can
maintain sufficient voltage to cause a deployment fo
r
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 assembl
y
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 the
key.
1. Remove the SRS fuse “SRS”, from the side of the driver’s side of the instrument panel fuse block o
r
disconnect the battery.
2. Disconnect the yellow connector at the base of the steering column.
3. Remove the glove box assembly, refer to “Passenger Air Bag Assembly Replacement” in
this manual.
4. Disconnect the yellow connector behind the glove box assembly.
CAUTION: With the “SRS” fuse removed and
ignition switched “ON”, the “SRS” 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 or different model year air bag
assembly.
Use only a new air bag assembly matched to the
TFR/S which is being repaired.
Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove the
key.
1. Connect the yellow connector passenger air bag assembly.
2. Install the glove box assembly. Refer to “Passenger air bag assembly replacement” in this
manual.
3. Connect the yellow connector at the base of the steering column.
4. Install the “AIR BAG” fuse “SRS” to the side of the driver’s side of the instrument panel fuse block o
r
connect the battery.
Turn the ignition switch to “ON” and verify that the
“SRS” warning lamp flashes seven times and then
turns to “LOCK”. If it does not operate as described,
perform the “SRS Diagnostic System Check” in this
manual.

Handling / Installation / Diagnosis
1. The air bag assembly should not be subjected to temperatures above 65
°C (150°F).
2. The 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. W hen the 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 “SRS”
warning lamp operation and will lead you to the
correct chart to diagnose any SRS malfunctions.
Bypassing these procedures may result in
extended diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and
incorrect parts replacement.

20. The passenger inflator requires no special
precaution after deployment. 95% of the
particulate emission is potassium chloride (KLC),
which is commonly sold as an edible salt-
substitute. Even if water is applied, post
deployment products are relatively pH neutral.
Disposing of the inflator by burying it in a landfill
will not produce any hazardous products. As with
any dusty environment, safety goggles, dust mask
and gloves should be worn.
WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED WHEN HANDLING A DEPLOYED AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY. AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE
METAL SURFACES OF THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
WILL BE HOT. ALLOW THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
TO COOL BEFORE HANDLING ANY METAL
PORTION OF IT. DO NOT PLACE THE DEPLOYED
INFLATOR MODULE NEAR ANY FLAMMABLE
OBJECTS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROCEDURES
MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
AFTER AN AIR BAG ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN
DEPLOYED, THE METAL CANISTER AND
SURROUNDING AREAS OF THE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY WILL BE HOT. DO NOT TOUCH THE
METAL AREAS OF THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY FOR
ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES AFTER DEPLOYMENT.
IF THE DEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY MUST BE
MOVED BEFORE IT IS COOL, WEAR GLOVES AND
HANDLE BY THE AIR BAG ITSELF.
21. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the air bag assembly as soon after deployment as possible to
avoid damage to the pigtail adapter or SRS
deployment harness from contacting the hot ai
r
bag assembly canister. The pigtail adapter and
SRS deployment harness are designed to be
reused. They should, however, be inspected fo
r
damage after each deployment and replaced if
necessary.
22. Dispose of the deployed air bag assembly through normal refuse channels after it has cooled for at
least 30 minutes.
23. W ash your hands with mild soap and wate
r
afterward.
NOTE: The remaining steps are to be followed in the
unlikely event that the air bag assembly did not deplo
y
after following the above procedures.
24. Ensure that the SRS deployment harness has been disconnected from the power source and that
its two banana plugs have been shorted togethe
r
by fully seating one banana plug into the other.
25. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the air bag assembly.

WARNING: WHEN STORING A LIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY OR WHEN LEAVING A LIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY UNATTENDED ON A BENCH OR
OTHER SURFACE, ALWAYS FACE THE BAG UP
AND AWAY FROM THE SURFACE. THIS IS
NECESSARY SO THAT A FREE SPACE IS
PROVIDED TO ALLOW THE AIR BAG TO EXPAND
IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT OF
ACCIDENTAL
DEPLOYMENT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
PROCEDURES MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY.
26. Temporarily store the air bag assembly with the bag facing up, away from the surface upon which it
rests.

Service Precautions for SRS
Component Service
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
r
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 a 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.
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

The SRS control unit in the 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 assembl
y
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

f
steering column.
3. Remove the glove box assembly; Refer to “Passenger air bag assembly replacement” in this
section.
4. Disconnect the passenger air bag assembly yello
w
connector behind the glove box assembly.

CAUTION: With the “SRS” fuse removed and the
ignition switch to “ON,” the “SRS” warning lamp
will be “ON.” This is normal operation and does
not indicate an SRS malfunction.
Enabling The SRS
Installation
Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove the
key.
1. Connect the yellow connector passenger air bag assembly.
2. Install the glove box assembly. Refer to “Passenger Air Bag Assembly Replacement” in
