REMOVAL
WARNING:
• Before servicing the SRS, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both battery terminals and wait at
least three minutes.
• Do not use old bolts; replace with new bolts.
• Check diagnosis sensor unit bracket to make sure it is free of deformities, dents, cracks or rust. If it
shows any visible signs of damage, replace with new one.
• Replace diagnosis sensor unit if it has been dropped or sustained an impact.
• Never use air tools or el ectric tools for servicing.
• When replacing the air bag diagnosis sensor unit, always check with the parts department for the lat-
est parts information. Installing an incorrect air bag diagnosis sensor unit may or may not cause the
air bag warning lamp to illuminate and may cause incorrect deployment of the supplemental air bags
and seat belt pre-tensioner in a collision r esulting in serious personal injury or death.
1. Disconnect the both the negative and positive battery terminals, then wait at least three minutes.
2. Disconnect the harness connectors for each air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner. Refer to SR-5,
"Removal and Installation", SR-10, "Removal and Installation", SR-13, "Removal and Installation", SE-69,
"Disassembly and Assembly", SB-4, "Removal and Installation of Front Seat Belt".
3. Remove center console. Refer to IP-20, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Disconnect diagnosis sensor unit harness connectors.
5. Remove bolts from the diagnosis sensor unit.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to check that no malfunction is detected. Refer to SRC-
13, "SRS Operation Check".
CAUTION:
• The diagnosis sensor unit must always be installed with the arrow mark " ⇐" pointing toward the
front of the vehicle for proper operation.
• Never damage the harness while installing.
• If malfunction is detected by the air bag warnin g lamp, after repair or replacement of the malfunc-
tioning parts, reset the memory using sel f-diagnosis or CONSULT-III. Refer to SRC-15, "
Self-Diagno-
sis Function (Without CONSULT-III)".
• After the work is completed, check that no system malfunction is detected by air bag warning lamp.

DIAGNOSIS SENSOR UNIT
• After replacing the air bag diagnosis sensor unit, confirm using CONSULT-III that the ECU discrimi-
nated number (identification number) of the new replacement air bag diagnosis sensor unit matches
the ECU discriminated number (identification number ) of the replaced (old) air bag diagnosis sensor
unit.
NOTE:
If the ECU discriminated number of the new replacement air bag diagnosis sensor unit differs from the ECU
discriminated number of the replaced air bag diagnosis sensor unit, reconfirm the parts information and verify
that the correct air bag diagnosis sensor unit was installed.
