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).

Wiring Precautions
. Never attempt to modify, splice or repair SRS wiring'
NOTE: SRS wiring can be identified by special yellow
outer Protective covering.
8e sure to install the harness wires so that they are not
oinched or interfering with other parts.
t
Make sure all SRS ground locations are clean and
grounds are securely fastened for optimum metal-to-
metal contact. Poor grounding can cause intermittent
problems that are difficult to diagnose.

Gonnectors
. When checking voltage or resistance on this type of
connector the flrst time, it is necessary to remove lne
retainer to insert tester probes from the wire side.
NOTE: lt is not necessary to reinstall the removed
retainer; the terminals wi I stay locked in the connec-
tor housrng.
To remove the retainer, insert a flat tip screwdriver
between connector body and retainer, and carefully
pry out the retainer.
NOTE: Take care not to break the connector.

Connect a 12 volt battery to the tool:
. lf the green light on the tool comes on, the aar-
bag igniter circuit is defective and cannot deploy
the airbag. Go to Damaged Airbag Special
Procedure.
. lf the red light on the tool comes on, the airbag is
ready to be deployed.
Push the tool's deployment switch. The airbag
should deploY (deployment is both highly audible
and visible; a loud noise and rapid inflation of the
bag, followed by slow deflation).
. lf the airbags deploy and the green light on the
tool comes on. continue with this procedure.
. l{ an airbag doesn't deploy, yet the green light
comes ON, its igniter is defective. Go to Dam-
aged Airbag Special Procedure.
!!@ During doployment, the airbag sssom'
bly can become hot enough to buln you. Wait thir'
ty minutes aftsr deployment belore touching tho
assembly.
Dispose of the complete airbag assembly. No part
of it can be reused. Place it in a sturdy plastic bag,
and seal it securelY,
CAUTION:
. Wear a fsce shield and gloves when handling a
deployed airbag.
. Wash your hands and rinse them well with
wat6r after handling. deployed airbag.

Doploying th6 Airbag: Out-of-vehicle
NOTE: lf an intact airbag has been removed from a
scrapped vehicle. or has been found defective or dam-
aged during transit, storage or service, it should be
deployed as follows:
@ Po3ition the airbag laca up, outdoors on
flat ground at lsast thirty f€€t (t0 ml from any obstacles
or people.
1. Confirm that the special tool is tunctioning properly
by following the check procedure on this page or on
the tool label.
2. Follow steps 5, 6, 7, and I of the in-vehicle deploy-
menl Drocequre.
Damaged Airbag Spacial Procedure
!@ r an airb.g cannot be deployed, it should
iiiTi-treatcd as normal scrap; il should still be consid-
srsd a potontially oxplosive device that can cau3o ssti-
ous iniury.
1. lf installed in a vehicle, lollow the removal proce-
dure on page 24-67.
2. In all cases. make a short circuit by twisting together
the two airbag inflator wires.
3. Package the airbag in exactly the same packaging
that the new replacement part came in.
4. Mark the outside of the box "DAMAGED AIRBAG
NOT DEPLOYED" so it does not get confused with
your Parts stock.
5. Contact your Honda District Service Manager for
how and where to return it for disposal.
Deployment Tool: Check Procedur€
1. Connect the yellow clips to both switch protector
handles on the tool; connect the tool to a battery.
2. Push the operation switch: green means the tool is
OK: red means the tool is faulty
3. Disconnect the battery and the yellow clips.
