Front Seat Belt Pre-tensioner with Load LimiterEHS000W5
The seat belt pre-tensioner system with load limiter is installed for
both the driver's seat and the front passenger's seat. It operates
simultaneously with the SRS air bag system in the event of a frontal
collision with an impact exceeding a specified level.
When the frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level
occurs, seat belt slack resulting from clothing or other factors is
immediately taken up by the pre-tensioner. Vehicle passengers are
securely restrained.
When passengers in a vehicle are thrown forward in a collision and
the restraining force of the seat belt exceeds a specified level, the
load limiter permits the specified extension of the seat belt by the
twisting of the ELR shaft, and a relaxation of the chest-area seat belt
web tension while maintaining force.
Front Side Air BagEHS000W6
Front side air bag modules are built into the front seatback assemblies.
Vehicles with side air bags are equipped with labels as shown.
Side Curtain Air BagEHS000W7
Side curtain air bag modules are located above the vehicle headlining.
Vehicles with side curtain air bags are equipped with labels as
shown.
Occupant Classification System EHS000W8
The occupant classification system identifies different size occupants, out of position occupants, and detects if
child seat is present in the front passenger seat. The occupant classification system receives inputs from the
occupant classification system sensor (located inside the passenger seat cushion assembly) and belt tension
sensor (part of the passenger front seat belt assembly and located at the belt anchor location). Depending on
classification of passenger, the occupant classification system sends a signal to the air bag diagnosis sensor
unit. The air bag diagnosis sensor unit uses this signal to determine deployment or non deployment of the pas-
senger front air bag in the event of a collision. Depending on the signal received, the air bag diagnosis sensor

CONSULT-II Function (AIR BAG)EHS001BB
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II FunctionEHS000WE
HOW TO CHANGE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE WITH CONSULT-II
From User Mode to Diagnosis Mode
After selecting “AIR BAG” on the “SELECT SYSTEM” screen, User mode automatically changes to Diagnosis
mode.
From Diagnosis Mode to User Mode
To return to User mode from Diagnosis mode, touch “BACK” key of CONSULT-II until “SELECT SYSTEM”
appears, Diagnosis mode automatically changes to User mode.
AIR BAG diagnostic mode Description
SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]A current Self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the number of warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis
mode) is displayed on the CONSULT-II screen in real time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requir-
ing repairs.
SELF-DIAG [PAST]Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory are displayed on the CONSULT-II screen. The
stored results will remain until memory erasing is executed.
TROUBLE DIAG RECORDWith TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be dis-
played on the CONSULT-II screen.
ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.The air bag diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle
model is assigned with its own, individual classifi-
cation number. This number will be displayed on
the CONSULT-II screen, as shown. When replac-
ing the air bag diagnosis sensor unit, refer to the
part number for the compatibility. After installation,
replacement with a correct unit can be checked by
confirming this classification number on the CON-
SULT-II screen.
For INFINITI MODEL JA60, the air bag diagno-
sis sensor unit discriminated number assigned
is F615.

HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS

“SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]”
A current self-diagnosis result is displayed on the CONSULT-II
screen in real time.
After the malfunction is repaired completely, no malfunction is
detected on “SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]”.

“SELF-DIAG [PAST]”
Return to the “SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]” CONSULT-II screen by
touching “BACK” key of CONSULT-II and select “SELF-DIAG
[PAST]” in SELECT DIAG MODE. Touch “ERASE” in “SELF-
DIAG [PAST]” mode.
NOTE:
If the memory of the malfunction in “SELF-DIAG [PAST]” is
not erased, the User mode will continue to show the system
malfunction by the operation of the warning lamp even if
the malfunction is repaired completely.

“TROUBLE DIAG RECORD”
The memory of “TROUBLE DIAG RECORD” cannot be erased.
Self-Diagnosis Function (Without CONSULT-II)EHS000WF

The reading of these results is accomplished using one of two modes — “User mode” and “Diagnosis
mode”.

After a malfunction is repaired, turn the ignition switch OFF for at least one second, then back ON. Diag-
nosis mode returns to the User mode. At that time, the self-diagnostic result is cleared.

For removal/installation of the direct-connect SRS connectors, refer to SRS-7, "Direct-connect SRS Com-
ponent Connectors" .
CAUTION:

Always work from the side of or under front passenger air bag module.

After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to check that no malfunction is detected.
Refer to SRS-20, "
SRS Operation Check" .
Service Replacement Passenger Air Bag Module
1. Install the front passenger air bag module to the instrument
panel pad assembly.
2. Install the instrument panel assembly. Refer to IP-10, "
INSTRUMENT PANEL ASSEMBLY" .
3. Connect the front passenger air bag module harness connector to yellow 4-pin service replacement air
bag connector and fasten connector to mounting bracket.
CAUTION:

Always work from the side of or under front passenger air bag module.

After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to check that no malfunction is detected.
Refer to SRS-20, "
SRS Operation Check" .
WIRING HARNESS MODIFICATION
The passenger air bag module originally installed in the vehicle uses direct-connect style harness connectors.
Service replacement passenger air bag modules use tab-locking style harness connectors. If the passenger
air bag module is replaced or if the direct-connect harness connectors are damaged, the vehicle wiring har-
ness must be modified to allow connection of the service replacement passenger air bag module.
NOTE:
The wiring harness modification is to be performed only if the vehicle is equipped with the original passenger
air bag which uses direct-connect harness connectors. If the passenger air bag is to be replaced in a vehicle
that has already had the service replacement passenger air bag installed, the wiring harness modification is
not required.
CAUTION:

Do not attempt to repair or replace damaged direct-connect front passenger air bag module con-
nectors. If a direct-connect harness connector is damaged, the front passenger air bag must be
replaced and the wiring harness modified.

Before servicing SRS, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both battery cables and wait at least
3 minutes.

Always work from the side of or under front passenger air bag module.

After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to check that no malfunction is detected.
Refer to SRS-20, "
SRS Operation Check" .
1. Locate the yellow and orange direct-connect passenger air bag module harness connectors.
2. Use wire cutters to cut back both previously used direct-connect passenger air bag module harness con-
nectors from the vehicle wiring harness approximately 50 mm (1.9 in) from the connectors.
3. Remove approximately 150 mm (5.9 in) of the vehicle harness covering from the cut end.
