2. Check the SRS components and the related parts using the following table.

-

Replace any SRS components and the related parts showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks,

deformation).

3. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-III and “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to

SRC-12, "SRS Opera-

tion Check"

for details. Make sure entire SRS operates properly.

WHEN SRS IS NOT ACTIVATED IN THE SIDE OR ROLLOVER COLLISION

1. Check the SRS components and the related parts using the following table.

-

If the front seat back assembly is damaged, the front seat back assembly must be replaced.

2. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-III and “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to
