GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: THIS SYSTEM IS A SENSITIVE, COM-
PLEX ELECTRO±MECHANICAL UNIT. DISCONNECT
AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE CABLE
BEFORE BEGINNING AIRBAG SYSTEM COMPO-
NENT REMOVAL OR INSTALLATION PROCEDURES.
THIS WILL DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAIL-
URE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY COULD
RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT
AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
ALLOW SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE
FOR ONE MINUTE BEFORE REMOVING AIRBAG
COMPONENTS.
DO NOT PLACE AN INTACT UNDEPLOYED AIRBAG
FACE DOWN ON A SOLID SURFACE, THE AIRBAG
WILL PROPEL INTO THE AIR IF ACCIDENTALLY
DEPLOYED AND COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY. WHEN CARRYING OR HANDLING AN UNDE-
PLOYED AIRBAG MODULE, THE TRIM SIDE OF THE
AIRBAG SHOULD BE POINTING AWAY FROM THE
BODY TO MINIMIZE POSSIBILITY OF INJURY IF ACCI-
DENTAL DEPLOYMENT OCCURS.
REPLACE AIRBAG SYSTEM COMPONENTS WITH
MOPARTREPLACEMENT PARTS. SUBSTITUTE
PARTS MAY APPEAR INTERCHANGEABLE, BUT
INTERNAL DIFFERENCES MAY RESULT IN INFE-
RIOR OCCUPANT PROTECTION.
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES, RUBBER GLOVES,
AND LONG SLEEVES CLOTHING WHEN CLEANING
POWDER RESIDUE FROM VEHICLE AFTER AIRBAG
DEPLOYMENT. SODIUM HYDROXIDE POWDER
RESIDUE EMITTED FROM A DEPLOYED AIRBAG
CAN CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION. FLUSH AFFECTEDAREA WITH COOL WATER IF IRRITATION IS EXPE-
RIENCED. IF NASAL OR THROAT IRRITATION IS
EXPERIENCED, EXIT THE VEHICLE FOR FRESH AIR
UNTIL THE IRRITATION CEASES. IF IRRITATION
CONTINUES, SEE A PHYSICIAN.
DO NOT USE A REPLACEMENT AIRBAG THAT IS
NOT IN THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING, IMPROPER
DEPLOYMENT AND PERSONAL INJURY CAN
RESULT.
THE FACTORY INSTALLED FASTENERS,
SCREWS AND BOLTS USED TO FASTEN AIRBAG
COMPONENTS HAVE A SPECIAL COATING AND
ARE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE FASTENERS,
USE ONLY ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT FASTENERS
LISTED IN THE PARTS CATALOG WHEN FASTENER
REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED.
NOTE: Airbags should be stored in a cool dry loca-
tion away from excessive heat and static electrical
activity with the fabric airbag facing UP, or a prema-
ture deployment can result.
If the Driver/Passenger Airbag Module is defective
and not deployed, refer to DaimlerChrysler Corpora-
tion current return list for proper handling proce-
dures.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE (ACM)
The Airbag Control Module (ACM) contains the
sensing element, safing sensor, and energy reserve
capacitor. The module is mounted on the tunnel/floor
pan between the gear shift lever and the park brake
PLPASSIVE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS 8M - 1

lever (Fig. 1). The ACM monitors the system to deter-
mine the system readiness. The ACM contains
on-board diagnostics, and will illuminate the AIR-
BAG warning lamp in the cluster when a fault
occurs. The warning equipment is tested for six to
eight seconds every time the vehicle is started.
CLOCKSPRING
The clockspring is mounted to the steering column
behind the steering wheel (Fig. 2). The clockspring is
used to maintain a continuous electrical circuit
between the wiring harness and the:
²Driver's airbag module
²Speed control switches
²Horn switch
The clockspring consists of a flat, ribbon like, elec-
trically conductive tape which winds and unwinds
with the steering wheel rotation.
DRIVER and PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE
WARNING: NEVER DISASSEMBLE THE DRIVER OR
PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULES, THERE ARE NO
SERVICEABLE PARTS WITH IN THE MODULES.
The Driver Airbag Module located on the steering
wheel is the most visible part of the system (Fig. 3).
The airbag module contains a housing to which the
cushion, inflator and cover are attached to.
The driver side inflator assembly is mounted from
the back of the module housing. When supplied with
the proper electrical signal the inflator assembly will
produce a gas and discharge it directly into the cush-
ion. A protective cover is fitted to the front of the
Driver Airbag Module and forms a decorative cover
in the center of the steering wheel. The Driver Air-bag Module is mounted directly to the steering
wheel.
The Passenger Airbag Module is located beneath
the decorative cover of the instrument panel, facing
the passenger seat (Fig. 3).
The passenger inflator assembly is within the mod-
ule housing. The module is mounted to the instru-
ment panel retainer and support structure. When
supplied with the proper electrical signal the inflator
will produce a gas and discharge it directly into the
cushion. A protective cover is fitted over the airbag
module and forms a decorative cover.

they cannot be reused.
²Passenger Airbag Module
Inspect all the attaching hardware and instrument
panel for damage. If damage is evident, components
should be replaced.
HANDLING AIRBAG MODULES
DEPLOYED AIRBAG MODULE
The vehicle interior may contain a very small
amount of sodium hydroxide powder, a by-product of
airbag deployment. Sodium hydroxide powder can
irritate the skin, eyes, nose and throat. Wear safety
glasses, rubber gloves, and long sleeved clothing
when cleaning any of the powder residue from the
vehicle.
If you find that the cleanup is irritating your skin,
run cool water over the affected area. Also, if you
experience nasal or throat irritation, exit the vehicle
for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation
continues, see a physician.
UNDEPLOYED AIRBAG MODULE
The airbag modules must be stored in its original
special container until used for service. At no time
should a source of electricity be permitted near the
inflator on the back of an airbag module. When car-
rying or handling an undeployed airbag module, the
trim side of the airbag should be pointing away from
the body to minimize possibility of injury if acciden-
tal deployment occurs. Do not place undeployed air-
bag face down on a solid surface, the airbag will
propel into the air if accidentally deployment occurs.
MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
(1) Check the airbag warning lamp for proper
operation as follows:
(a) Turn ignition switch to the ON position, the
airbag warning lamp should light. If not, test the
system using a DRB llltscan tool and the proper
Body Diagnostic Procedures Manual.
(b) The airbag warning lamp lights, but fails to
go out after eight seconds. Test the system using a
DRB llltscan tool and the proper Body Diagnostic
Procedures Manual.
(c) After correcting active malfunction erase
stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's).
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE (ACM)
WARNING: THE ACM CONTAINS THE SENSING
ELEMENT AND A SAFING SENSOR WHICH
ENABLES THE SYSTEM TO DEPLOY THE AIR-
BAGS. TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT,
NEVER CONNECT ACM ELECTRICALLY TO THE
SYSTEM WHILE VEHICLE BATTERY IS CON-
NECTED.
DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY NEG-
ATIVE (GROUND) CABLE BEFORE BEGINNING ANY
AIRBAG SYSTEM COMPONENT REMOVAL OR
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE. THIS WILL DISABLE
THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DISCONNECT
BATTERY COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG
DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
ALLOW SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE
FOR 1 MINUTE BEFORE REMOVING ANY AIRBAG
COMPONENTS.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable (Fig. 4).
(2) Remove center console. Refer to Group 23 Body,
Floor Console Removal and Installation.
(3) Remove module mounting nuts and remove
module (Fig. 6).
(4) Disconnect ACM 23-way connector.
(5) Remove ACM from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Connect ACM connector and ensure that the
connector and all locking tabs are engaged.
CAUTION: USE SUPPLIED NUTS ONLY
(2) Position ACM (arrow pointing forward) in the
console floor bracket, attach the nuts and tighten to
9.6 to 14 N´m (85 to 125 in. lbs.) torque.
