Precautions/Procedures
SRS Unit Precautions
Take extra care when painting or doing body work in
the area below the dashboard. Avoid direct exposure
of the SRS unit or wiring to heat guns, welding, or
spraying equipment.
Disconnect the driver's/front passenger's airbag con-
nectors and seat belt tensioner connectors before
working below the dashboard near the SRS unit.
After any degree of frontal body damage, or after a
collision without airbag deployment, inspect the SRS
unit for physical damage. lf it is dented, cracked, or
detormed, reolace it,
Be sure the SRS unit is installed securelv.
Do not disassemble the SRS unit.
Store the SRS unit in a cool {less than about
104"F/40"C) and dry {less than 80o/o humidity. no
moisture) place. Do not spill water or oil on the SRS
unit, and keep it awav from dust.
During installation or replacement, be careful not to
bump (impact wrench, hammer, etc.) the area a[ound
the SRS unit, The airbags could accidentally deploy
and cause damage or injury.
24-20
,..4
Inspection After Deployment
After a collision in which the airbags were deployed.
replace the SRS unit, and inspect the following:
1. Inspect all the SRS wire harnesses. Replace, don't
repair, any damaged harnesses
2. Inspect the cable reel for heat damage, lf there is any
damage. replace the cable reel.
3. After the vehicle is completely repaired, turn the
ignition switch on. lf the SRS indicator light comes
on for about six seconds and then goes off, the SRS
system is OK. lf the indicator light does not function
properly, go to SRS Troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting
Self-diagnostic Procedures
The self-diagnostic function of the SRS system allows it to locate the causes of system problems and to store this informa-
tion in memory, For easier troubleshooting, this data can be retrieved via a data link circuit.
. When you turn the ignition switch ON (ll). the SRS indicator will come on. lf it goes off after six seconds, the system is
normal.
. lf there is 8n abnormality, the system locates and defines the problem. stores this information in memory, and turns
the SRS indicator light on. The data will remain in the memory even when the ignition switch is turned off or if the bat-
terv is disconnected.
. When you connect the SCS service connector to the service check connector (2P), and turn the ignition switch ON (ll),
the SRS indicator light will indicate the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) by the number of blinks.
. After reading and recording the DTC, proceed with the troubleshooting forthis code.
Precsutions
. Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. lf it's not a Honda multimeter. make sure its output is 10 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 accidental airbag deployment and possible injury.
. Whenever the ignition switch isON (ll). or has been turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful nottobumpthe
SRS unit; the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
. Before you remove the SRS main harness, disconnect the airbag and tensioner connectors (see page 24-23).
. Make sure the battery is sufficiently charged (see section 23). lf the battery is dead or low, measuring values won't be
correct.
. Do not touch a tester probe to the terminals in the SRS unit or harness connectors, and do not connect the terminals
with a jumper wire. Use only the backprobe set and the SCS service connector.
For backprobing spring-loaded lock type con nectors, .efet to page 24-22.
Reading the DTC
When the SRS indicator light is on, read the DTC using one of these methods;
A. Connect the Honda PGM Tester to the 16P Data Link Connector {DLC), and follow the tester's prompts. lf the tester
indicates no DTC, DTC 9-1 and DTC 9-2, double-check by jumping the service check connector (2P) and watching the
SRS indicator light (see next page).

Troubleshooting
Erasing the DTC Memory
To erase the DTC{S) from the SRS unit, use a Honda
PGM Tester (see the Honda PGM Tester SRS Vehicle
System Supplement) or the following procedure.
1. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF.
2. Connect the SCS service connector to the MES con,
nector (2P). Do not use a jumper wire.

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll),
4. The SRS indicator light comes on for about six sec-
onds and then goes off. Remove the SCS servjce con
nector from the MES connector {2P) within four sec-
onds after the SRS indicator light went otf.
5. The SRS indicator light comes on again. Reconnect
the SCS service connector to the MES connector(2P) within four seconds after the SRS indicator lioht
comes on,
6. The SRS indicator light goes otf. Remove the SCS
service connector from the MES connector (2P)
within four seconds.
7. The SRS indicator light indicates that the memory is
erased by blinking two times.
L Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for ten sec
onos.

Troubleshooting Intermittent
Failures
lf there was a malfunction. but it doesn't recur, it will be
stored in the memory as an intermittent failure, and the
SRS indicator light comes on.
After checking the DTC, troubleshoot as follows:
1. Read the DTC (see "Reading the DTC").
4.
Erase the DTC memory (see "Erasing the DTC
Memory").
With the shift lever in neutral, turn the ignition switch
ON (ll), and let the engine idle.
The SRS indicator ljght comes on for about six sec-
onds and then goes off.
t*F

lt--- _l
Shake the wire harness and the connector, take a test
drive (quick acceleration, quick braking, cornering),
and turn the steering wheel fully left and right, and
hold it there for five to ten seconds to find the cause
of the intermittent failure.
lf the problem recurs, the SRS indicator light will
stay on.
-+t 6!.c l.-
Problem recurs, light stays on.
6. lf you can't duplicate the intermiftent tailure, the sys-
tem is OK at this time.
