After installing the anchors, check for free move-
ment on the anchor bolts lf necessary, remove the
anchor bolts, and check that the washers and other
parts are not damaged or improperly installed.
Check the seat belts for damage or discoloration.
Clean with a shop towel if necessary.
CAUTION: Uso only soap and wator to clean.
NOTE: Dirt build-up in the metal loops of the upper
anchors can cause the seat belts to retract slowly
Wipe the inside of the loops with a clean cloth damP
ened in isopropyl alcohol.
Check that the seat belt does not lock when pulled
out slowlv. The seat belt is designed to lock only
during a sudden stop or impact.
Make sure that the seat belt will retract automatically
when released.
For each passenger's seat belt, make sure that the
locking mechanism in the seat belt retractor will
engage when the seat belt is pulled all the way out.
Replace the seat belt with a new assembly if there is
any abnormality. Do not disassemble any part of
the seat belt for any reason.

Precautions/Procedures
)General Precautions
Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it.
Do not install any part that shows signs of being drop-
ped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or
deformation:
- Airbags- Cable reel- SRS unit- Seat belt tensioners
N
)-
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system, lf
it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output is
10 mA (0,01 A) or less when switched to the smallest
value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher
output could damage the airbag circuit or cause acci-
dental deployment and possible injury.
Do not install used SRS Dans from another vehicle,
When making SRS repairs, use only new pans.
Except when performing electrical inspections,
always disconnect both the negative cable and posi-
tive cable from the batterv. and wait at least three
minutes before beginning work.
Replacement of the combination light and wiper/
washer switches and cruise control switch can be
done without removing the steering wheel:
- Combination light and wiper/washer switch replace-
ment {see section 231.- Cruise control sevresume switch replacement (see
section 41.
Whenever the ignition switch is ON {ll}, or has been
turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful not
to bump the SRS unit; the airbags could accidentally
deploy and cause damage or injuries.
Whenever the airbag has been activated, replace the
SRS unit.
The original radio has a coded theft protection circuit.
Be sure to get the customer's code number before dis-
connecting the battery cables.
)
Airbag/Seat Belt Tensioner
Handling and Storage
Do not try to disassemble an airbag or a seat belt ten-
sioner. They have no serviceable parts. Once an airbag
or a seat belt tensioner have been deployed. they cannot
be repaired or reused.
For temporary storage of an airbag or a seat belt ten-
sioner during service, please observe the following pre-
cautons:
. Store the removed airbag with the pad surface up.
The driver's/front passenger's airbag connectors and
seat belt tensioner connectors have a built-in short
contact (see page 24-211.
@ r th€ airb.g is impropcrty stor€d face down,
accidental deployment could propel the unit with enough
forc€ to caus6 serious iniury,
Store the removed on a secure flat surface awav from
any high heat source (exceeding 212"F/100'C) and
free of any oil, grease. detergent or water.
lmproper handling or storage can internally damage
the airbag and seat belt tensioner. making them inop-
erative.
lf you suspect the airbag and seat belt tensioner have
been damaged, install new units and refer to the
Deploymenvoisposal Procedures for disposing of the
damaoed units.
AIRBAG CONNECTORS

Precautions/Procedures
Disconneeting the Airbag Connectors and the Seat Belt Tensioner
Connectors (cont'd)
1.Disconnect the battery negative cable, then discon-
nect the positive cable from the battery. and wait at
least three minutes.
Disconnect the airbag and tensioner connectors
lsee page 24-22).
Driver's Airbag:
. Remove the access panel from the steering
wheel, then disconnect the 2P connector
between the driver's airbag and cable reel. When
disconnected, the airbag connector is automati-
callv shorted.
DRIVER'S AIRBAG2P CONNECTOR
Front Passsng€/sAirtag:
. Disconnect the 2P connector between the front
passenger's airbag and SRS main harness. When
disconnected. the airbag connector is automati-
callY shorted.

Troubleshooting
Self-diagnostic Procedures
The self-diagnostic function of the SRS system allows it to locate the causes of system problems and to store this informa-
tion in memory, For easier troubleshooting, this data can be retrieved via a data link circuit.
. When you turn the ignition switch ON (ll). the SRS indicator will come on. lf it goes off after six seconds, the system is
normal.
. lf there is 8n abnormality, the system locates and defines the problem. stores this information in memory, and turns
the SRS indicator light on. The data will remain in the memory even when the ignition switch is turned off or if the bat-
terv is disconnected.
. When you connect the SCS service connector to the service check connector (2P), and turn the ignition switch ON (ll),
the SRS indicator light will indicate the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) by the number of blinks.
. After reading and recording the DTC, proceed with the troubleshooting forthis code.
Precsutions
. Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. lf it's not a Honda multimeter. make sure its output is 10 mA (0.01 A)
or less when switched to the smallest value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher output could damage the
airbag circuit or cause accidental airbag deployment and possible injury.
. Whenever the ignition switch isON (ll). or has been turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful nottobumpthe
SRS unit; the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
. Before you remove the SRS main harness, disconnect the airbag and tensioner connectors (see page 24-23).
. Make sure the battery is sufficiently charged (see section 23). lf the battery is dead or low, measuring values won't be
correct.
. Do not touch a tester probe to the terminals in the SRS unit or harness connectors, and do not connect the terminals
with a jumper wire. Use only the backprobe set and the SCS service connector.
For backprobing spring-loaded lock type con nectors, .efet to page 24-22.
Reading the DTC
When the SRS indicator light is on, read the DTC using one of these methods;
A. Connect the Honda PGM Tester to the 16P Data Link Connector {DLC), and follow the tester's prompts. lf the tester
indicates no DTC, DTC 9-1 and DTC 9-2, double-check by jumping the service check connector (2P) and watching the
SRS indicator light (see next page).

Front Passenger's Airbag
Replacement
After a collision in which the airbags were deployed, the
airbags, the seat belt tensioners (if so equipped), and
the SRS unit must be reolaced.
@ store a rsmovod airbag with lhe pad sur-
face up, It the airbag is improporly stor6d face down,
accidental doploym€nl could propsl ths unit withgnough forco to cause serious iniury.
CAUTION:
. Always disconnsqt the front pa3s6ng6r'3 airbag con-
noctor when tho SRS main harness is disconnocted,
. Do not disassambl6 or tamper with tho airbag,
NOTE:
. Do not install us6d SRS parts from another vehicle.
When repairing, use only new SRS parts.
. Carefully inspect the airbag before you install it. Do
not install an airbag that shows signs of being
dropped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks
or deformation.
Disconnect the battery negative cable, then discon-
nect the positive cable from the battery. and wait at
least three minutes.
Remove the glove box (see section 20).
Disconnect the 2P connector between the front Das-
senger's airbag and SRS main harness, When dis-
connected, the airbag connector is automatically
shorted.
