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.

Air Bag Assembly Scrapping Procedure
During the course of a vehicle's useful life, certain
situations may arise which will necessitate the disposal
of a live (undeployed) air bag assembly. This
information covers proper procedures for disposing o
f
a live air bag assembly.
Before a live air bag assembly can be disposed of, it
must be deployed.
A live air bag assembly must not
be disposed of through normal refuse channels.
WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROPER
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY DISPOSAL PROCEDURES CAN
RESULT IN AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT WHICH MAY
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY. AN UNDEPLOYED
AIR BAG ASSEMBLY MUST NOT BE DISPOSED
OF THROUGH NORMAL REFUSE CHANNELS.
THE UNDEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
CONTAINS SUBSTANCES THAT CAN CAUSE
SEVERE ILLNESS OR PERSONAL INJURY IF THE
SEALED CONTAINER IS DAMAGED DURING
DISPOSAL. DISPOSAL IN ANY MANNER
INCONSISTENT WITH PROPER PROCEDURES
MAY BE A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL, STATE, AND
/
OR LOCAL LAW.
In situations which require deployment of a live air bag
assembly, deployment may be accomplished inside o
r
outside the vehicle. The method employed depends
upon the final disposition of the particular vehicle, as
noted in “Deployment Outside Vehicle” and
“Deployment Inside Vehicle” in this section.
Deployment Outside Vehicle (Driver Air
Bag Assembly)
Deployment outside the vehicle is proper when the
vehicle is to be returned to service. This includes, fo
r
example, situations in which the vehicle will be
returned to useful service after a functionally o
r
cosmetically deficient air bag assembly is replaced.
Deployment and disposal of a malfunctioning air bag
assembly is, of course, subject to any required
retention period.
For deployment of a live (undeployed) air bag
assembly outside the vehicle, the deployment
procedure must be followed exactly. Always wea
r
safety glasses during this deployment procedure until
a deployed air bag assembly is scrapped or until an
undeployed air bag assembly is shipped. Before
performing the procedures you should be familiar with
servicing the SRS and with proper handling of the ai
r
bag assembly. Procedures should be read fully before
they are performed.
The following procedure requires use of a 5-8840-
2468-06 SRS deployment harness with appropriate
pigtail adapter. Do not attempt the procedure without
a 5-8840-2468-0 adapter.
WARNING: F
AILURE TO FOLLOW PROCEDURES
IN THE ORDER LISTED MAY RESULT IN
PERSONAL INJURY. NEVER CONNECT THE
DEPLOYMENT HARNESS TO ANY POWER
SOURCE BEFORE CONNECTING THE
DEPLOYMENT HARNESS TO THE DRIVER AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY. DEPLOYMENT HARNESS
SHALL REMAIN SHORTED AND NOT BE
CONNECTED TO A POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE
AIR BAG IS TO BE DEPLOYED. THE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY WILL IMMEDIATELY DEPLOY THE AIR
BAG WHEN A POWER SOURCE IS CONNECTED
TO IT. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES THROUGHOUT
THIS ENTIRE DEPLOYMENT AND DISPOSAL
PROCEDURE.
NOTE: This information applies only to driver air bag
assembly. Refer to “Deployment Outside Vehicle
(Passenger Air Bag assembly)” in this section fo
r
information on passenger air bag assembly scrapping.
1. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK”, remove the ke
y
and put on safety glasses.
2. Inspect the 5-8840-2468-0 SRS Deployment Harness and appropriate pigtail adapter fo
r
damage. If the harness or pigtail adapter is
damaged, discard and obtain a replacement.
3. Short the two SRS deployment harness leads together by fully seating one banana plug into the
other. The SRS deployment harness shall remain
shorted and not be connected to a power source
until the air bag is to be deployed.
827RS004
4. Connect the appropriate pigtail adapter to the SRS deployment harness.
5. Remove the driver air bag assembly from the vehicle. Refer to “Inflator Module Removal” in this
manual.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM 9A-25
NOTE: W hen the air bag deploys, the driver air bag
assembly may jump about 30 cm (one foot) vertically.
This is a normal reaction of the driver air bag to the
force of the rapid gas expansion inside the air bag.
NOTE: W hen the air bag deploys, the rapid gas
expansion will create a substantial noise. Notify all
people in the immediate area that you intend to deplo
y
the driver air bag.
WARNING: THE DEPLOYMENT HARNESS SHALL
REMAIN SHORTED AND NOT BE CONNECTED TO
A POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE AIR BAG IS TO BE
DEPLOYED. THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WILL
IMMEDIATELY DEPLOY THE AIR BAG WHEN
A
POWER SOURCE IS CONNECTED TO IT.
CONNECTING THE DEPLOYMENT HARNESS TO
THE POWER SOURCE SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE
LAST STEP IN THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
DEPLOYMENT PROCEDURE. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW PROCEDURES IN THE ORDER LISTED
MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
16. Connect the SRS deployment harness wires to the power source to immediately deploy the driver ai
r
bag. Recommended application: 12 volts
minimum, 2 amps minimum. A vehicle battery is
suggested.
17. Disconnect the SRS deployment harness from the power source.
18. Short the two SRS deployment harness leads together by fully seating one banana plug into the
other.
19. In the unlikely event that the driver air bag assembly did not deploy after following these
procedures, proceed immediately with Steps 24
through 26. If 19. the driver air bag assembly did
deploy, proceed with Steps 20 through 23.
20. Put on a pair of shop gloves and safety glasses to protect your hands and eyes from possible
irritation and heat when handling the deployed
driver air bag assembly. After the air bag assembl
y
has been deployed, the surface of the air bag may
contain a powdery residue. This power consists
primarily of cornstarch (used to lubricate the bag
as it inflates) and by-products of the chemical
reaction. Sodium hydroxide dust (similar to lye
soap) is produced as a by-product of the
deployment reaction. The sodium hydroxide then
quickly reacts with the atmospheric moisture and
is converted to sodium carbonate and sodium
bicarbonate (baking soda). Therefore, it is unlikel
y
that sodium hydroxide will be present after
deployment.
WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED WHEN HANDING A DEPLOYED AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY. AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE
METAL SURFACES OF THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
WILL BE VERY HOT. ALLOW THE INFLATOR
MODULE TO COOL BEFORE HANDLING ANY
METAL PORTION OF IT. DO NOT PLACE THE
DEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY NEAR ANY
FLAMMABLE OBJECTS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
PROCEDURES MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
AFTER A DRIVER AIR BAG ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN
DEPLOYED, THE METAL CANISTER AND
SURROUNDING AREAS OF THE DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY WILL BE VERY HOT. DO NOT TOUCH
THE METAL AREAS OF THE DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES AFTER
DEPLOYMENT. IF THE DEPLOYED DRIVER AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY MUST BE MOVED BEFORE IT IS
COOL, WEAR GLOVES AND HANDLE BY THE AIR
BAG OR TRIM COVER.
21. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the driver ai
r
bag assembly as soon after deployment as
possible. This will prevent damage to the pigtail
adapter or SRS deployment harness due to
possible contact with the hot driver air bag
assembly canister. The pigtail adapter can be
reused. They should, however, be inspected fo
r
damage after each deployment and replaced i
f
necessary.
22. Dispose of the deployed driver air bag assembl
y
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 driver air bag assembly did not
deploy after following these 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 driver ai
r
bag assembly.
WARNING: WHEN STORING A LIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY OR WHEN LEAVING A LIVE
INFLATOR MODULE UNATTENDED ON A BENCH
OR OTHER SURFACE, ALWAYS FACE THE BAG
AND TRIM COVER 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.

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.
