Precautions for Vehicles Equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System
S7RS0B0000001
WARNING!
• The configuration of air bag system parts are as shown in the figure. When it is
necessary to service (remove, reinstall and
inspect) these parts, be sure to follow
procedures described in Air Bag System
section. Failure to follow proper
procedures could result in possible air bag
system activation, personal injury, damage
to parts or air bag system being unable to
activate when necessary.
• If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, SUZUKI
recommends that the air bag system be
repaired first, to help avoid unintended air
bag system activation.
• Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard, or any other air bag system
components. Modifications can adversely
affect air bag system performance and
lead to injury.
• If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93 °C (200 °F) (for
example, during a paint baking process),
remove the air bag system components
beforehand to avoid component damage
or unintended air bag system activation.

Diagnosis
• When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to follow “Diagnosis” in Air Bag System section.
Bypassing these procedures may result in extended
diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect
parts replacement.
• Never use electrical test equipment other than that specified.
WARNING!
Never attempt to measure the resistance of
the air bag (inflator) modules (driver,
passenger, side and curtain) and seat belt
pretensioners (driver and passenger). It is
very dangerous as the electric current from
the tester may deploy the air bag or activate
the pretensioner.

General PrecautionsS7RS0B0000002
The WARNING and CAUTION describe some general
precautions that you should observe when servicing a
vehicle. These general precautions apply to many of the
service procedures, and they will not necessarily be
repeated with each procedure to which they apply.
WARNING!
• Whenever raising a vehicle for service, be sure to follow the instructions under
“Vehicle Lifting Points in Section 0A”.
• When it is necessary to do service work with the engine running, make sure that
the parking brake is set fully and the
transmission is in Neutral (for manual
transmission vehicles) or Park (for
automatic transmission vehicles), Keep
hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from
the fan and belts when the engine is
running.
• When it is necessary to run the engine indoors, make sure that the exhaust gas is
forced outdoors.
• Do not perform service work in areas where combustible materials can come in
contact with a hot exhaust system. When
working with toxic or flammable materials
(such as gasoline and refrigerant), make
sure that the area you work in is well-
ventilated.
• To avoid getting burned, keep away from hot metal parts such as the radiator,
exhaust manifold, tail pipe, muffler, etc.
• New and used engine oil can be hazardous. Children and pets may be
harmed by swallowing new or used oil.
Keep new and used oil and used engine oil
filters away from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine oil
has been found to cause [skin] cancer in
laboratory animals. Brief contact with used
oil may irritate skin. To minimize your
exposure to used engine oil, wear a long-
sleeve shirt and moisture-proof gloves
(such as dish washing gloves) when
changing engine oil. If engine oil contacts
your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and
water. Launder any clothing or rags if wet
with oil, recycle or properly dispose of
used oil and filters. • Be sure to observe following instructions
when handling service materials such as
fuel, oil, fluid, coolant, grease, sealant,
thread lock cement, etc. Otherwise, your
health may be ruined.
– Whenever handling any of these service materials, wear safety glasses to protect
your eyes. If it gets into your eye, it may
cause inflammation.
– Whenever handling any of these service materials, wear moistu re-proof gloves to
protect your skin. If it adheres to your
skin, it may cause inflammation.
– Do not swallow any of these service materials. It would cause diarrhea or
nausea.
– Keep all these materials out of children’s reach.
• Make sure the bonnet is fully closed and latched before driving. If it is not, it can fly
up unexpectedly during driving,
obstructing your view and resulting in an
accident.

• Before starting any service work, cover fenders, seats and any other parts that are likely to get scratched or
stained during servicing. Also, be aware that what you
wear (e.g., buttons) ma y cause damage to the
vehicle’s finish.

Precautions for Electrical Circuit ServiceS7RS0B0000008
• When replacing a fuse, make sure to use a fuse of the specified capacity. Use of a fuse with a larger capacity
will cause a damage to the electrical parts and a fire.
• When disconnecting and connecting coupler, make sure to turn ignition switch OFF, or electronic parts
may get damaged.
• When disconnecting connectors, never pull the wiring harness. Unlock the connecto r lock first and then pull
them apart by holding connectors themselves. • When connecting connectors, also hold connectors
and put them together until th ey lock securely (a click
is heard).
• When installing the wiring harness, fix it with clamps so that no slack is left.
• When installing vehicle parts, be careful so that the wiring harness is not interfered with or caught by any
other part.
• To avoid damage to the harnes s, protect its part which
may contact against a part forming a sharp angle by
winding tape or the like around it.

• When ESP ® control module is removed / installed, do
not use impact wrenches which generate shock or
impact to avoid damaging sensors in ESP ® control
module.
• When any of the following operation is done, calibrate steering angle sensor referring to “Sensor Calibration
in Section 4F”.
– When battery or dome fuse is removed.
– When steering angle sensor is replaced.
Brake CautionS7RS0B0000014
CAUTION!
All brake fasteners are important attaching
parts in that they could affect the
performance of vital parts and systems, and/
or could result in major repair expense. They
must be replaced with one of same part
number or with an eq uivalent part if
replacement becomes necessary. Do not use
a replacement part of lesser quality or
substitute design. Torque values must be
used as specified during reassembly to
assure proper retention of all parts. There is
to be no welding as it may result in extensive
damage and weakening of the metal.

Repair Instructions
Electrical Circuit Inspection ProcedureS7RS0B0006001
While there are various electrical circuit inspection
methods, described here is a general method to check
its open and short circuit by using an ohmmeter and a
voltmeter.
Open Circuit Check
Possible causes for the open circuit are as follows. As
the cause is in the connector or terminal in many cases,
they need to be checked particularly carefully.
• Loose connection of connector
• Poor contact of terminal (due to dirt, corrosion or rust
on it, poor contact tension, entry of foreign object etc.)
• Wire harness being open
When checking system circuits including an electronic
control unit such as ECM, TCM, ABS control module,
etc., it is important to perfor m careful check, starting with
items which are easier to check.
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable from battery
2) Check each connector at both ends of the circuit being checked for loose connection. Also check lock
condition of connector if equipped with connector
lock. 3) Using a test male terminal
, check both terminals of
the circuit being checked for contact tension of its
female terminal. Check each terminal visually for
poor contact (possibly caused by dirt, corrosion, rust
entry of foreign object, etc.). At the same time, check
to make sure that each te rminal is locked in the
connector fully.
1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing just for once.

I2RH01010050-01

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 00-13 Precautions:
Short Circuit Check (Wire Harness to Ground)1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Disconnect connectors at bot h ends of the circuit to
be checked.
NOTE
If the circuit to be checked is connected to
other parts (1), disconnect all connectors of
those parts.
Otherwise, diagnosis will be misled.

3) Measure resistance between terminal at one end of circuit (“A-1” terminal in the figure) and body ground.
If continuity is indicated, it means that there is a short
to ground between terminals “A-1” and “C-1” of the
circuit. 4) Disconnect the connector included in circuit
(connector-B) and measure resistance between “A-
1” and body ground. If continuity is indicated, it
means that the circuit is shorted to the ground
between terminals “A-1” and “B-1”.
Intermittent and Poor Connection InspectionS7RS0B0006002
Most intermittent are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring, although a sticking relay or
solenoid can occasionally be at fault. When checking it
for proper connection, perfor m careful check of suspect
circuits for:
• Poor mating of connector halves, or terminals not fully seated in the connector body (backed out).
• Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. The terminals must be clean and free of any foreign material which could
impede proper terminal contact. However, cleaning
the terminal with a sand paper or the like is prohibited.
• Damaged connector body, exposing the terminals to moisture and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper
terminal orientation with the component or mating
connector.

I2RH01010056-01
I2RH01010057-01

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Precautions: 00-14
• Improperly formed or damaged terminals.Check each connector terminal in problem circuits
carefully to ensure good contact tension by using the
corresponding mating terminal.
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase
contact tension or replace.
• Poor terminal-to -wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor
connection by shaking it by hand lightly. If any
abnormal condition is found, repair or replace. • Wire insulation which is rubbed through, causing an
intermittent short as the bare area touches other
wiring or parts of the vehicle.
• Wiring broken inside the insulation. This condition
could cause continuity check to show a good circuit,
but if only 1 or 2 strands of a multi-strand-type wire
are intact, resistance could be far too high.
If any abnormality is found, repair or replace.
1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing just once.
2. Check each terminal for bend and proper alignment.
