DANGER

•

In order to avoid injury to yourself or others from
accidental deployment of the air bag during servic-
ing, read and carefully follow all the precautions
and procedures described in this manual.

•

After disconnecting the battery cable, wait 60 sec-
onds or more before proceeding with the following
work. The SRS system is designed to retain
enough voltage to deploy the air bag for a short
time even after the battery has been disconnected,
so serious injury may result from unintended air
bag deployment if work is done on the SRS system
immediately after the battery cables are discon-
nected.

WARNING

•

Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS
AFTER HANDLING.

•

Do not use any electrical test equipment on or near
the SRS components, except those specified on

P.52Ba-22

.

•

Never Attempt to Repair the Following Compo-
nents: SRS-ECU, Clock Spring, Air Bag Module,
Front Impact sensor, Side Impact Sensor, Seat Belt
with Pre-tensioner. If any of these components are
diagnosed as faulty, they should only be replaced,
in accordance with the INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT
SERVICE procedures in this manual, starting on

P.52Ba-26

.

•

Do not attempt to repair the wiring harness con-
nectors of the SRS. If any of the connectors are
diagnosed as faulty, replace the wiring harness. If
the wires are diagnosed as faulty, replace or repair
the wiring harness according to the following
table.

WARNING

•

Inspection of the SRS-ECU connector harness
should be carried out by the following procedure.
Insert the backprobing tool into connector from
harness side (rear side), and connect the tester to
backprobing tool. If any tool other than
backprobing tool is used, it may cause damage to
the harness and other components. Furthermore,
measurement should not be carried out by touch-
ing the backprobing tool directly against the termi-
nals from the front of the connector. The terminals
are plated to increase their conductivity, so if they
are touched directly by the backprobing tool, the
plating may break, which will decrease reliability.

•

The SRS components and seat belt with pre-ten-
sioner should not be subjected to heat, so
removed the SRS-ECU, driver’s and front passen-
ger’s air bag modules, clock spring, side-airbag
module, front impact sensor, side impact sensor,
and seat belt pre-tensioner before drying or baking
the vehicle after painting.

•

SRS-ECU, air bag module, clock spring, front
impact sensor, side impact sensor: 93

°C (200°F)

or more

•

Seat belt with pre-tensioner 90

°C (194°F) or

more

•

After servicing the SRS system, check the warning
light operation to make sure that the system func-
tions properly. (Refer to

P.52Bb-2

.)

•

Make certain that the ignition switch is "LOCK"
(OFF) position when the scan tool is connected or
disconnected.

•

If you have any questions about the SRS system,
please contact the MMSA Tech Line.
