Switch Test (With SRS)

AWARNING Store a removed airbag assembly with the pad surface up. If the air bag is improperly stored face down, accidental deployment could propel the unit with enough force to cause serious injury.

CAUTION:
•   Carefully inspect the airbag assembly before installing. Do not install an airbag assembly that shows signs of being dropped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or deformation.
•   Do not install used SRS parts from another car. When reparing an SRS, use only new parts.
•   Always keep the short connector on the airbag connector when the harness is disconnected.
•   Do not disassemble or tamper with the airbag assembly.

1. Disconnect the battery negative cable, then disconnect the positive cable.

2. Make sure the wheels are turned straight ahead.
3. Remove the dashboard lower cover.

4. Remove the access panel below the airbag, then remove the short connector from the panel.

5. Disconnect the connector between the airbag and the cable reel.

6. Install the short connector on the airbag.

7. Disconnect the cable reel harness 6-P connector from the SRS main harness, then connect Test Harness C only to the cable reel harness.

8. Check for continuity between the No. 3 terminal and body ground with the horn switch pressed. There should be continuity.

9. Remove the 2 TORX° bolts using a TORX° T30 bit, then remove the airbag assembly.
