AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES

M1524001202093

When discarding the air bag modules or a vehicle
with SRS air bags, be sure to deploy the air bags in
advance as specified in the service procedure that
follows.

AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-153

DISPOSAL OF UNDEPLOYED AIR BAG
MODULES

CAUTION

• If the vehicle is to be scrapped or disposed of,

deploy the air bags inside the vehicle.

• If the vehicle is still to be used and only the

air bag modules are to be discarded, deploy
the air bags outside the vehicle.

• Since a large amount of smoke is produced

when the air bags are deployed, avoid resi-
dential areas whenever possible. Also, do not
perform the operation near the smoke detec-
tor.

• Since there is substantial report when the air

bags are deployed, avoid residential areas
whenever possible. If anyone is nearby, give
warning of the impending noise.

• Suitable ear protection must be put on by per-

sonnel performing these procedures or by
people in the immediate area.

DRIVER'S AIR BAG MODULE
DEPLOYMENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE

1. Move the vehicle to flat and isolated spot.

CAUTION

Disconnect the battery cable connection, and
wait for 60 seconds or more before starting the
work.

2. Disconnect the (

−) and (+) terminals of battery

cable, and then remove the battery from the
vehicle.

3. Remove the Steering column lower cover (Refer

to GROUP 37

− Steering column shaft assembly ).

4. Remove the connection between the clock spring

connector (4-pin) and the harness side connector
(4-pin).

NOTE: Once disconnected from the instrument
panel wiring harness, both electrodes of the clock
spring connector short automatically. This pre-
vents the driver's air bag from accidental deploy-
ment caused by static, etc.

Deployment wires

Connection

6 m or longer

5. Obtain two suitable wires, which are 6 m or

longer, as deployment wires. Then connect the
wires at one end to short.

6. Touch the vehicle's body with bare hands to

discharge static in you.

7. Cut with a pliers, etc. the instrument panel wiring

harness shown in the figure of the instructions,
while the clock spring connector is disconnected.

NOTE: The disconnection location should be suf-
ficiently away from the harness side connector
with consideration to the expansion harness con-
nection location upon disconnections.

8. Connect the deployment wires on the two

instrument panel wiring harnesses disconnected,
cover the connection areas with insulator tape
and then pull out the deployment wires outside the
vehicle.

9. Connect the harness side connector connected

with an expansion harness to the clock spring
connector.

WARNING

If the glass is scratched, the glass may be
shattered at deployment. Therefore, cover
with a vehicle cover to avoid danger.

10.In order to suppress the operation sound as much

as possible, fully close all the door windows, close
the doors, and then cover the vehicle with a
vehicle cover.

CAUTION

• Make sure that no one is present inside or

near the vehicle before deploying the air bag.

• Immediately after the air bag deployment, the

inflator is extremely hot. Thus, before han-
dling, leave the inflator for 30 minutes or more
to cool.

• If the air bag module does not deploy, consult

with your distributor.

11.Disconnect the deployment wire connection at a

place as far as possible from the vehicle. Then,
connect the wires to the removed vehicle battery
to deploy the air bag module.

12.Discard the deployed air bag module according to

the disposal procedures (Refer to

P.52B-163

).

PASSENGER'S (FRONT) AIR BAG
MODULE DEPLOYMENT INSIDE THE
VEHICLE

1. Move the vehicle to flat and isolated spot.

CAUTION

Disconnect the battery cable connection, and
wait for 60 seconds or more before starting the
work.
2. Disconnect the (

−) and (+) terminals of battery

cable, and then remove the battery from the
vehicle.

3. Remove the passenger's (front) air bag module

from the vehicle (Refer to

P.52B-136

).

4. Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the

locking button of floor harness connector. After
releasing the lock, disconnect the connector.

NOTE: When the passenger's (front) air bag mod-
ule connector is disconnected from the inflator,
the two pins of inflator connector are automatically
shorted. This prevents the unintentional deploy-
ment of passenger's (front) air bags caused by the
static or others.

5. Connect the deployment wires of 6 m or more to

each of the two wiring harnesses of special tool
adapter harness (MB991885), and cover the
connection areas with insulation tape. Keep the
other ends of deployment wires connected to
each other (shorted).

NOTE: This prevents the unintentional activation
of inflator caused by the static or others.

6. Connect the adapter harness to the passenger's

(front) air bag module.
