Control Unit Input Test ('96 - 98 models and'99 - 00 models without
Keyless Entry System)
1. Remove the driver's door panel (see section 20).
2. Disconnect the 12P connector from the control unit.
3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact
a lf the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the svste-
. lf the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.
- lf any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the syslem
lf all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.

Transmitter Programming ('99 - 00 modelsl
Storing transmitter codes;
The codes of up to three transmitters can be read into
the keyless receiver unit memory. (lf a fourth code is
stored, the code which was input first will be erased.)
NOTE: lt is important to maintain the time limits
between the steps.
'1. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
2. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or unlock
button with the transmitter aimed at the vehicle.
3. Within I to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON 1ll).
5. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
vehicle.
6. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
8. Within 1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
vehicle.
9.Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
Within '1 to 4 sec., push the transmitter lock or
unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the
vehicle.
Confirm you can hear the sound of the door lock
acIuarors.
Within 8 sec., aim the transmitters (up to three)
whose codes you want to store at the receiver, and
press the transmitter lock or unlock buttons.
Contirm that you can hear the sound of the door
lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.
Turn the ignition switch OFF, and pull out the key.
Confirm proper operation with the new code(s).

Description
)
The sRS is a safety device which, when used in coniunction with the seat belt, is designed to help protect the driver land
front passenger) in a frontal impact exceeding a certain set limit. The system consists of the sRS unit {including safing
sensor and impact sensor), the cable reel, the driver's airbag (and front passenger's airbag)

Operation
The main circuit in the SRS unit senses and judges the force of impact and, if necessary, ignites the inflator charge(s) lf
battery voltage is too low or power is disconnected due to the impact, the voltage regulator and the back-up power clrcult
resoectivelv will keep voltage at a constant level.
For the SRS to operate:
(1) The impact sensor must activate. and send electric signals to the mlcroprocessor'
(2) The microprocessor must compute the signals' and must send signals to the airbag inflator(s)'
{3) The inflator(s) must ignite and deploy the airbag(s)'

Self-diagnosis System
A self-diagnosis circuit is built into the SRS unit; when the ignition switch is turned ON (ll), the SRS indicator light comes
on and goes off after about six seconds if the system is operating normally
lf the liglt does not come on, or does not go off after six seconds, or if it comes on while driving, it indicates an abnormal-
ity in the system. The system must be inspected and repaired as soon as possible
For better serviceability, the memory will store the cause of the malfunctlon, and the data link circuit passes on the infor-
mation from the memory to the data link connector (DLC). This intormation can be read with the Honda PGM Tesler con-
nected to the DLC (16P).

Precautions/ Procedures
)General Precautions
r Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it Do
not install any part that shows signs of being dropped
or improperly handled' such as dents, cracks or defor-
mation:
- Airbags- Cable reel
- SRS unit
-
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system lf
it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output ls
1O 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'
I Do not install used SRS parts from another vehicle
When making SRS repairs, use only new pans'
) Except when performing electrical inspections'
always disconnect both the negative cable and posl-
tive cable from the battery, and wait at least three
minutes before beginning work
r Replacement of the combination light and wiper/
washer switches and cruise control switch can be
done without removing the steering wheel:
- Combinalion light and wiper/washer switch replace
ment, see section 23
- Cruise control sevresume switch replacement' see
section 23.
. 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 airbag(s) could accidental-
ly deploy and cause damage or injury'
. Whenever the airbag{s) has(have) been activated'
replace the SRS unit.l,

Airbag Handling and Storage
Do not try to disassemble the airbag assembly. lt has no
serviceable parts Once an airbag has been operated
(deployed). it cannot be repaired or reused'
For temporary storage of the airbag assembly during ser-
vice. olease observe the following precauttons:
. store the .emoved airbag assemblv with the pad sur-
face uo The driver's (and front passenger's) airbag
connecto''s'-as {have) a built.in short contact (see

. Store the removed airbag assembly on a secure flat
surface away from any high heat source {exceeding
