- Work must be started after 90 seconds from the time the ignition switch
is turned to the LOCK position and the negative battery
cable has been disconnected. The SRS is equipped with a back-up power source
so that if work is started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the negative
battery cable, the SRS may deploy. When the negative terminal cable is disconnected
from the battery, memory of the clock and radio will be canceled. Before
you start working, make a note of the contents memorized by the audio memory
system. When you have finished working, reset the audio systems and adjust
the clock. Never use a back-up power supply from outside the vehicle.
- In the event that of a minor frontal collision where the air bag does
not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front air bag sensors and center air
bag sensor assembly should be inspected.
- Before repairs, remove the air bag sensors if shocks are likely to be
applied to the sensors during repairs.
- Never disassemble and repair the steering wheel pad, front air bag sensors
or center air bag sensors.
- Do not expose the steering wheel pad, front air bag sensors or center
air bag sensor assembly directly to flames or hot air.
- If the steering wheel pad, front air bag sensors or center air bag sensor
assembly have been dropped, or there are cracks, dents or other defects
in the case, bracket or connectors, have them replaced with new ones.
- Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components.
Follow the instructions of the notices.
- After arming the system, check for proper operation of the SRS warning
light.
- If the wiring harness in the SRS system is damaged, have the entire harness
assembly replaced.
