AIRBAG SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)
C: DTC 15 DRIVER'S AIRBAG FAILURE
DTC DETECTING CONDITION:
•Airbag main harness circuit (Driver's side) is shorted to power supply.
•Airbag module harness circuit (Driver's side) is shorted to power supply.
•Roll connector is shorted to power supply.
•Driver's airbag module is faulty.
•Airbag control module is faulty.
CAUTION:
•Before diagnosing the airbag system, be sure to turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the
ground terminal from battery, and wait more than 20 seconds before starting to work.
•After replacing the airbag module, seat belt pretensioner, roll connector, control module and sen-
sor, reconnect each part and confirm that the warning light operates properly.
•When inspecting the airbag main harness, disconnect the airbag module connectors and seat belt
pretensioners of the driver’s and passenger’s seats for safety reasons.
NOTE:
Prior to starting work, prepare two airbag resistors (98299PA040).

A: REMOVAL
1) Lift-up the vehicle, and then remove the front
wheels.
2) Remove the front exhaust pipe.
3) Remove the front crossmember support plate.
Support Plate.>
4) Remove the front stabilizer. MOVAL, Front Stabilizer.>
5) Disconnect the tie-rod end from housing.
6) Remove the front arm. AL, Front Arm.>
7) Remove the nuts attaching the engine mount
cushion rubber to crossmember.
8) Remove the steering universal joint.
9) Disconnect the power steering hose from steer-
ing gearbox.
10) Lift the engine approx. 10 mm (0.39 in) using
the chain block.
11) Support the crossmember with a jack, remove
the bolts securing crossmember to body, and then
gradually lower the crossmember with steering
gearbox as a unit.
CAUTION:
When removing the crossmember downward,
be careful that the tie-rod end does not interfere
with drive shaft boot.
B: INSTALLATION
1) Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
•Use a new bolt and self-locking nut. For parts
which are not reusable, refer to “COMPONENT”.
tion.>
•Always tighten the stabilizer bushing in the state
where the vehicle is at curb weight and the wheels
are in full contact with the ground.
Tightening torque:
Crossmember to body:
95 N·m (9.7 kgf-m, 70.1 ft-lb)
Engine mounting to Crossmember:
85 N·m (8.7 kgf-m, 62.7 ft-lb)
Front arm to Crossmember:
95 N·m (9.7 kgf-m, 70.1 ft-lb)
Front arm to Support plate:
145 N·m (14.8 kgf-m, 106.9 ft-lb)
Support plate to Body:
150 N·m (15.3 kgf-m, 110.6 ft-lb)
Tie–rod end to housing:
27.0 N·m (2.75 kgf-m, 19.9 ft-lb)
After tightening to the specified torque, tighten the
castle nut further but within 60° until the hole in the
ball stud is aligned with a slot in castle nut
Universal joint:
24 N·m (2.4 kgf-m, 17.4 ft-lb)
Stabilizer clamp
25 N·m (2.5 kgf-m, 18.1 ft-lb)
Stabilizer link:
60 N·m (6.1 kgf-m, 44.3 ft-lb)
Power steering hose to Steering gearbox:
15 N·m (1.5 kgf-m, 11 ft-lb)
2) Purge air from the power steering system.
3) Inspect the wheel alignment and adjust if neces-
sary.
C: INSPECTION
Check the crossmember for wear, damage or
cracks, and then repair or replace if faulty.
