Alignment area

(a) Whether there are broken connectors or protective

pipes and deformed terminals.

(b) Whether the housing is damaged.

(c) Inspect whether the clock spring's upper connector

terminal and lower corresponding connector terminal is

conducting.

Clock spring central involution

Screw in the clock spring clockwise all the way, and then

turn it 3.5 circles in the reverse direction, until the position

pin's block boss matches the block hole (as shown on the

left).

Caution: If the clock spring is not in the involution

central, the steering wheel will be unable to rotate

midway or cause clock spring circuit failure, which will

obstruct the normal operation of the SRS airbag.

6. Steering wheel and airbag module subassembly installation

(a) After pulling out the clock spring's position pin, install the steering wheel and airbag module subassembly.

Caution: While installing the steering wheel and airbag module subassembly, please do not block the

clock spring wire harness.

(b) After installation, try to turn the steering wheel left and right to its proper position, and check for anything

abnormal.

7. Inspection after installation

(a) Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right to check whether there is anything abnormal or for any

strange noise. (Driver side airbag module, clock spring).

(b) Set the ignition switch to the ON position.

(c) The SRS warning lamp will remain on for 6-7 s and will then die out.

(d) If the warning lamp is always on or shows other symptoms after 6-7 s, troubleshooting must be performed.

(e) Inspect whether the clock spring circuit is open circuited. If yes, please replace it with a new one.

(f) If no, check the other circuits.

Airbag Module Disposal

While discarding the airbag module or a vehicle carrying a SRS airbag, please discard according to the following

steps.

Discarding essentials of the airbag module before deployment

1. Deploy the airbag before discarding SRS airbag.

2. Deploy the airbag outside the vehicle when replacing the airbag module.

3. There may be some smoke when deploying the airbag, so make sure to operate near a smoke

detector.

4. When deploying the airbag, the sound will be very loud. Please ask nearby people to plug their ears,

and try not to operate near residential areas.

Airbag deployment

Warning: The following steps can prevent static

electricity trigged accidental deployment, so please

carefully follow them.

1. Park the vehicle on a flat surface.

2. Disconnect the battery's negative and positive

terminals, and remove the battery from the car.

Caution: Avoid wearing apparel which may generate

friction due to electricity. Disconnect the battery's

positive and negative terminals, and commence

operation after waiting 60 s.

3. Remove the airbag module according to the driver side

airbag's normal removal procedures.

Short circuit area

Longer than 6 m

4. Deploy the wire harness after removing the No. 2

connector of the clock spring.

Prepare two wire harnesses longer than 6 m for deployment,

and connect one of their ends together (to short circuit).

Caution: When deploying the airbag, make sure to

maintain a distance of at least 6 m away from objects

or people, and perform the deployment on a flat sur-

face. While deploying the airbag module outdoors,

avoid strong winds, and ignite it against the wind.

8. Place three old tires with no hub on the tires which are

used to fix in place the driver side airbag module (shown

on the left).

9. Cut off the connection of the driver side airbag module's

wire harness which is used for deployment at a place as

far away from the vehicle as possible and connect it to

the two terminals removed from the vehicle battery, caus-

ing it to deploy (shown on the left).

Caution: Deploy it only after ensuring that there are no

people around the airbag module. After the deployment

of driver side airbag module, the gas generator will be ex-

tremely hot. Continue to use it only after 30 min cooling.

10. Discard the deployed driver side airbag module accord-

ing to the discarding essentials.

5. Insert the airbag deployment wire harness into the

airbag execution device.

6. Install the unused bolts on the driver side airbag

module's inner side bolts, and bound the wheel rim with

a thick metal wire, so as to set the wheel rim in place.

7. Connect the wire harness used for deployment which is

connected with the driver side airbag module with the

lower part of the old tire which is used for installing the

wheel rim. Upwardly fix the driver side airbag module

with the metal wire which is connected to the bolt

(shown on the left).

Airbag’s Diagnostic Methods Without a Diagnostic Scanner

Airbag indicator lamp warning

Check the airbag ECU connectors for looseness,

check for warnings after correct installation.

Inspect whether the clock spring is

conducting

Go to a professional maintenance station to

perform inspection

Disconnect the front passenger side seat belt

pretensioner wires and replace it with a 2 Ω

resistor to see whether airbag warning lamp is

still on.

Disconnect the driver side seat belt pretensioner

wires and replace it with a 2 Ω resistor to see

whether airbag warning lamp is still on.

Disconnect the front passenger side airbag line

and replace it with a 2 Ω resistor to see whether

airbag warning lamp is still on.

Disconnect the driver side airbag line and

replace it with a 2 Ω resistor to see whether

airbag warning lamp is still on.

Check whether the alarm continues
