Component Test
Carry out the appropriate Functional Test(s) as determined in Inspection and Verification.
Functional Test I (Buckle and Tongue)
The safety belt buckle and tongue assembly must operate freely during the latching and unlatching
function. Fasten the safety belt by inserting the tongue (male portion) into the buckle (female portion).
1. Verify the following during the latching sequence: zTongue insertion is not hindered by excessive effort.
z A click is heard when the buckle latches the tongue.
2. Verify the system integrity by forcefully pulling on the belt webbing.
3. Unlatch the belt by fully depressing the buckle release button, and allowing the belt to release and retract.
4. Verify the following during the unlatching process: zPush-button depression does not require excessive effort.
z Tongue can be removed easily from the buckle.
5. Repeat the above steps three times.
6. If the inspection reveals an obvious concern(s) that can be readily identified, service as required. Do not attempt to carry out any repair on the buckle and tongue assembly. If a
concern exists with either component, a new safety belt buckle and safety belt and retractor
assembly must be installed.
Functional Test II (Retractor)
The safety belt and retractor assembly must be freely operational for extraction and retraction of the
safety belt webbing between full extension and in- vehicle stowed positions.
1. Extract and retract the safety belt between the full extension and stowed positions.
2. Verify the retractor operates without excessive effort or binding.
3. Install a new safety belt buckle retractor and tongue assembly if no obvious concerns are noticed and the complaint has been verified. z

2. Position the height adjuster in the full down or up position.
3. Latch the seat belt buckle and tongue assembly.
4. Pull the shoulder belt out until the automatic locking retractor (ALR) feature is activated.
5. Release the shoulder belt and allow it to retract until it stops.
6. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not
locked, install a new safety belt and retractor assembly.
7. Unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its stowed position.
8. Pull the shoulder belt to verify the retractor assembly has converted automatically out of the ALR mode. If the shoulder belt remains locked in the stowed position, install a new safety belt
and retractor assembly. Klj . 4 ba

Most air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) diagnostic procedures will require the use of the
deactivation and reactivation procedures in this section.
The deactivation and reactivation require the installation and removal of restraint system diagnostic
tools. These procedures require removal of driver air bag module, and the disconnection of the
passenger air bag module. This reduces the risk of deployment of air bag modules and safety belt
pretensioners while diagnostics are being carried out.
Restraint system diagnostic tools are required to carry out diagnosis and testing of the supplemental
restraint system (SRS). It is not acceptable to short-circuit the air bag module connections with a
jumper wire. If a jumper wire is used to short- circuit the air bag module connections, a lamp fault code
(LFC) will be displayed.
WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only.
Remove from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to remove could result in injury and possible
violation of vehicle safety standards.
The reactivation procedure requires the removal of any restraint system diagnostic tools installed and
the reconnection of any air bag modules disconnected.
Deactivation Procedure
WARNING: If the supplemental restraint system (SRS) is being serviced, the system must
be deactivated and restraint system diagnostic tools must be installed. Refer to Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) in this section.
The air bag restraint system diagnostic tools must be removed and the air bag modules
reconnected when the system is reactivated to avoid non- deployment in a collision, resulting in
possible personal injury.
NOTE: Diagnostics or repairs are not to be performed on a seat equipped with a seat side air bag with
the seat in the vehicle. Prior to attempting to diagnose or repair a seat concern when equipped with a
seat side air bag, the seat must be removed from the vehicle and the restraint system diagnostic tools
must be installed in the seat side air bag electrical connectors. The restraint system diagnostic
tools must be removed prior to operating the vehicle over the road.
NOTE: After diagnosing or repairing an SRS, the restraint system diagnostic tools must be
removed before operating the vehicle over the road.
NOTE: After diagnosing or repairing a seat system, the restraint system diagnostic tools must be
removed before operating the vehicle over the road.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the
backup power supply must be depleted before repairing or replacing any front or side air
bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before servicing, replacing,
adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such as doors,
instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches.
Please refer to the appropriate vehicle shop manual to determine location of the front air
bag sensors.
The side air bag sensors are located at or near the base of the B- pillar. Klj . 2 ba
