Chapter Four: Airbag System
Section One: Operating Precautions
I. Preventive Measures to be Taken in Operation
Improper maintenance will cause the incidental inflation of airbag and serious
consequential accidents, which may lead to trigger failures of airbag when needed. Do
read carefully following instructions before maintenance (including disassembling,
assembling, checking and replacing parts) and operate in accordance with proper
procedures specified in Maintenance Manual.
(1). Sometime the symptoms of SRS (auxiliary protection system) are difficult to
diagnose, therefore fault code is the most important information source of diagnosis.
Always check against fault code first before disconnecting battery when diagnosing
auxiliary protection system.
(2). Always start maintenance after ignition switch is turned to LOCK position and
battery cathode (-) terminal has been disconnected for five minutes, for auxiliary
protection system is equipped with a backup power source.
(3). In case SRS is not activated in slight collision, check steering wheel airbag
assembly and airbag sensor assembly.
(4). Do not use SRS parts from other vehicles. Always use new parts for replacement.
(5). Do not repair steering wheel airbag assembly or airbag sensor assembly for reuse.
(6). Do not shake steering wheel pad nor place a magnet close to the pad. Do not
expose steering wheel pad or airbag sensor assembly in hot air or flame.
(7). If steering wheel pad or airbag sensor assembly falls off, or casing, bracket or
connector has defects like crack and dent, replace them with new parts. Any liquid
such as grease, detergent, engine oil or water spilled on steering wheel pad shall be
wiped off immediately with dry cloth.
Chery A15 Maintenance Manual
(8). Steering wheel pad shall be placed on a stable place with the top surface upward.
Do not place any other objects on the pad.
(9). Always dispose of airbag before abandoning vehicle or steering wheel pad.
(10). The inflating device in steering wheel pad will be hot after airbag is inflated.
Dispose of the device after it cools down.
(11). Circuitry faults shall be diagnosed with a high-impedance (min. 10kΩ/V)
volt-ohmmeter.
(12). Follow the precautions specified on the rating plates of SRS parts.
(13). Check SRS warning light performance after maintenance of auxiliary protection
system.
II. Spiral Cable
Spiral cable (as shown in figure below) serves as circuit connection between vehicle
body and steering wheel. Steering wheel must be installed on steering post properly
with the spiral cable at the middle position; otherwise the spiral cable might come off
or cause other faults. Please refer to this manual for proper installation of steering
wheel.
III. Steering Wheel Pad
Chery A15 Maintenance Manual
1. SRS airbag is fitted in steering wheel. Airbag includes a trigger, an ignitor, a gas
generator, etc. When airbag sensor assembly sends a signal, the trigger will activate
inflation of airbag.
2. Steering wheel pad shall be placed with top surface upward when disassembling or
replacing. Lock the locking bar of dual-lock connector and handle with care to avoid
damaging connector. Do not place a steering wheel pad over another (If the pad is
placed with the metal surface upward, the airbag might be incidentally triggered and
cause serious accidents).

3. Do not measure the trigger resistance (to avoid incidental trigger, which is
extremely dangerous).
4. Do not apply grease on steering wheel pad, nor clean it with detergent of any kind.
5. Store steering wheel pad in an ambient temperature lower than 93ºC (200ºF) and
humidity lower than 40%, and keep it away from electric noises.
6. Disconnect airbag connector before any welding operation.
7. Trigger the airbag with a special tool before disposing of the vehicle or the steering
wheel pad.
IV. BCM (Airbag Control Module)
1. BCM (airbag control module, as shown in the figure) is located on the floor under
warm air water tank. BCM consists of airbag sensor, safety sensor, diagnostic circuit,
ignition control, driving circuit, etc. BCM receives signal from airbag sensor and
Chery A15 Maintenance Manual
determines whether to activate SRS.
BCM
2. If the airbag is triggered due to collision, do not reuse airbag computer.
3. Maintenance (including loosening the set bolt of airbag central sensor assembly)
may be started only after ignition switch is turned to LOCK position and battery
cathode terminal has been disconnected for five minutes.
V. Wiring and Connector
SRS wirings are all held in a yellow corrugated tube, and all connectors are
standard-yellow colored. In case wiring comes off or connector is damaged due to
incident, repair or replace as per corresponding instructions.
VI. SRS Connector
All SRS connectors are yellow-colored to be distinguished from other connectors.
SRS connectors with special functions and designs ensure high reliability by using gilt
terminals. A dual-locking pin locks the electronic connector lug mechanism to prevent
terminals from sliding out, as the figure shows.
