INTRODUCTION
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is safing G sensor and an analog G sensor. The

passenger’s seat belts to help reduce the risk or operational status of the SRS. The clock spring

the floor console monitors the system and has a the driver (by rendering the SRS inoperative).

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT

FUNCTION
The diagnosis unit monitors the SRS system and stores data
concerning any detected faults in the system. When the
ignition key is in “ON” or “START” position, the SRS warning
light should illuminate for about 7 seconds and then turn
off. That indicates that the SRS system is in operational order.
If the SRS warning light does any of the following, immediate
. inspection by an authorized dealer is needed.
SRS warning light (1) The SRS warning light does not illuminate as des?ribed
above.
(2) The SRS warning light stays on for more than 7 seconds.
(3) The SRS warning light illuminates while driving.
. If a vehicle’s SRS warning light is in any of these three
conditions when brought in for inspection, the SRS system
must be inspected, diagnosed and serviced in accordance
with this manual.

4. After disconnecting the battery cable, wait 60 seconds

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 disconnected.

5. Do not attempt to repair the wiring harness connectors

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.

Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check warning light operation to make sure that the system
functions properly. (Refer to P.528-2.)
Make certain that the ignition switch is OFF when the scan tool is connected or disconnected.
If you have any questions about the SRS, please contact the MMSA tech Line.

AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL PROCEDURES 52400120133

Before disposing of an air bag or a vehicle equipped

with an air bag, follow the procedures below to
deploy the air bag (s).

UNDEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL

Caution
1. If the vehicle is to be scrapped or otherwise disposed
of, deploy the air bags inside the vehicle. If the vehicle
will continue to be used and only the air bag modules
are to be disposed of, deploy the air bags outside
the vehicle.
2. Since a large amount of smoke is produced when
the air bag is deployed, avoid residential areas
whenever possible.
3. Since there is loud noise when the air bags are
deployed, avoid residential areas whenever possible.
If anyone is nearby, give warning of the impending
noise.
4. Suitable ear protection should be worn by personnel
performing these procedures or by people in the
immediate area.
DEPLOYMENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE
(when disposing of a vehicle)
* 1. Move the vehicle to an isolated spot.
I 2. Disconnect the negative (-) and positive (+) battery cables
from the battery terminals, and then remove the battery
from the vehicle.
Caution
Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the
battery cables before doing any further work.
(Refer to P.526-11.)

Remove the connection between the clock spring
2-pin connector (red) and the body wiring harness

NOTE
If the clock spring connector is disconnected from
the body wiring harness, both electrodes of the clock
spring connector will be automatically shorted to
prevent unintended deployment of the air bag due
A19S0225
to static electricity, etc.

4. To deploy the air bag module (front passenger’s side):

(1) Remove the glove box. (Refer to P.52B-29.)
(2) Remove the connection between the air bag module
(front passenger’s side) connector (red 2-pin) and
the body wiring harness connector.

5. Connect two wires, each six meters (20 feet) or longer,

to the two leads of SRS air bag adapter harness A and
cover the connections with insulation tape. The other
ends of the two wires should be connected to each other
(short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected
deployment of the air bag.

6. Connect the clock spring or air bag module (front

SRS air bag adapter passenger’s side) 2-pin connector (red) to SRS air bag
harness A MB686560 adapter harness A and move the deployment wires out
of the vehicle.

7. To suppress the operation sound as much as possible,

completely close all door windows, close the door and
put the cover on the vehicle.
Caution
If the glass is scratched, air bag deployment could
cause it to crack and fly out of the vehicle, so always
put a cover over the vehicle.

8. At a location as far away from the vehicle as possible,

disconnect the two connected wires from each other, and
connect them to the two terminals of the battery (which
has been removed from the vehicle) to deploy the air
bag.
Caution
1. Before deploying the air bag in this manner, first
check to be sure that there is no one in or near
the vehicle. Wear safety glasses.
2. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following
the deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to
allow it to cool before attempting to handle it.
Although not poisonous, do not inhale gas from
air bag deployment. See Deployed Air Bag Module
Disposal Procedures (Refer to P.528-39) for
post-deployment handling instructions.
3. If the air bag module fails to deploy when the
procedures above are followed, do not go near
the module. Contact the MMSA Tech Line.
9. After deployment, dispose of the air bag module according
to the Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
(Refer to P.52B-39.)
DEPLOYMENT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
Caution
1. Deploy the air bag in a wide, flat area at least 6 m
(20 feet) away from obstacles and other people.
2. Do not perform deployment outside, if a strong wind
is blowing, and if there is even a slight breeze, the
air bag module should be placed and deployed
downwind from the battery.
1. Disconnect the negative (-) and positive (+) battery cables
* from the battery terminals, and then remove the battery
from the vehicle. .3
Caution
Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the
battery cables before doing any further work. (Refer
to PS2B-11.).
2. Remove the air bag module from the vehicle.
(Refer to P.52B-27.)
Caution
Store the air bag module on a flat surface with the
pad cover facing up. Do not place anything on top
of it.

DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL

After deployment, the air bag module should be disposed
of in the same manner as any other scrap parts, adhering
to local laws and/or legislation. Observe the following
precautions during air bag disposal:
1. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following
deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it cool
before attempting to handle it.
J
2. Do not put water or oil on the. air bag after deployment.
3. There may be material on the deployed air bag module,
that could irritate the eye and/or skin. Wear gloves and
safety glasses when handling a deployed air bag module.
Caution
If after following these precautions, any material does
get into the eyes or on the skin, immediately rinse
the affected area with a large amount of clean water.
If any irritation develops, seek medical attention.

4. Tightly seal the air bag module in a strong vinyl bag
