SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM {SRSI
The Integra SRS includes a driver's airbag. located in the steering wheel hub, In addition, all models except the
RS model for Canada have a front passenger's airbag located in the dashboard above the glove box. Information
necessarv to safely service the SRS is included in this Service Manual. ltems marked with an asterisk {') on the
contents page include, or are located near, SRS components. Servicing. disassembling or replacing these items
will require special precautions and tools, and should therefore be done by an authorized Acura dealer.
a To avoid rsndering ths SRS inoporative, which could load to po.sonal iniury 01 d€ath in th€ event ot a ssvare
lrontal collision, all SRS service work muat be performod by an authorizod Acura deal6t.
a lmploper service procodules. including incorloct romoval and installation of the SRS, could lead to personal iniu-
ry caused by unintontional activation ot the airbags.
a All SRS elsctdcal wiring harnesses ara covorod with ysllow insulation. Rolalod compon€nts 8re locatsd in tho
stse ng column, tront console, dashboard, and dashboard lower panel, and in the dashboard above the glove
box. Do not use oloctrical tost equipmoni on thosa cilcuits.
NOTE: The original radio has a coded thett protection circuit. Be sure to get the customer's code number before
- disconnecting the battery.- removing the No. 32 (7.5 A) tuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box.
- removing the radio.
Alter service, reconnect power to the radio and turn it on. When the word "CODE" is displayed' enter the cus-
tomer's 5-digit code to restore radio operation.

System Description
Fluid Flow Diagram
The system is a compact rotary-valvs-type power stssring, connocted to the st€oring gearbox. Th6 fluid pressure is pro-vided by a vane-type pump which is driven by the engine crank pulley. The amount of fluid and pressurs is regulsted bythe flow control valve built into ths pump, The fluid prssaurs from th6 pump is dolivsred to tho valve unit sround the pin-ion of the steering g€arbox. The vslv€ inside the valvs unit controls the hydraulic prossur€ End changos the direction otthe flow. The fluid then flows to the power cylinder, where rack thrust is gen6rat6d. Fluid returning from th6 powsr cylin-der flows back to the .eservoir, where the fluid is 'filtered" and supplied to the pump Egain.

System Description
Steering Gearbox
The rack-and-pinion type steering gearbox has a valve unit incorporated with the pinion to control the steering fluid pres-
sure. Steering fluid from the pump is regulated by a rotary valve in the valve unit and is sent through the cylinder pipe to
the power cylinder, where hydraulic pressure is applied. The steering fluid in the other side of the power cylinder returns
through the cylinder pipe and valve unit to the reservoir.
VALVE UNIT
CYLINDER PIPE
POWEB CYLINDER
Valve Unit
Inside the valve unit is the valve, which is coaxial with the pinion shaft, and controls the steering fluid pressure. The valve
housing is connected with the fluid pipe from the pump, return pipe to the pump, and the two cylinder pipes from the
respective power cylinder.
The pinion shaft is double - structured with the input shaft connected to the pinion gear, both of which are interconnected
with the torsion bar.
The pin insened in the valve and the pinion shaft groove engage; this allows the pinion shaft to rotate together with the
Because of this construction, the difference in angle in the circumferential direction between the input shaft and the valve
becomes larger according to the torsional strength of the pinion or steering resistance. However, maximum torsion
between the shafts is regulated by the engaged splines of the shafts at the pin engagement section to hold the torsion bar
within the set value.
This allows the steering system to lunction as an ordinary rack-and-pinion type steering if the steering fluid is not pressur-
ized because of a faulty pump.

Pressure Control
Low assist at higher speeds:
When steering resistance is low. such as when driving at high speeds. or when driving straight ahead, the input shaft is
near or in the neutral position, so there is little or no flow to any of the power cylinder orifices, Most of the feed pressure
trom the pump is bypassed to the reservoir. Because of this, the pressure stays the same in both sides of the power cylin-
der, resulting in low or no assist.
vaz =- S\->/-\7/RETURN PASSAGE(To RESERVOIRI
VALVE UNIT
High assist at lower speeds:
When steering resistance is high, such as when driving at low speed, or when turning the wheel with the car stopped, the
difference in angle created between the input shaft and the valve opens the fluid passage on one side, and closes the fluid
passage on the other side, at each pair of orifices. The fluid pressure increases in the side of the power cylinder fed by the
larger fluid passage. This increased pressure pushes on the rack piston, allowing the steering wheel to be turned with light
effon. On the other side of the power cylinder, the return passage opens allowing the steering fluid to return through the
input shaft to the reservoir. The fluid passages to the power cylinder automatically change in size, increasing as the steer-
ing resistance increases. In other words, the passages become larger and power assist increases when the steering effort
would normally be high, (for example. when parking or making low speed turns). and the passages become smaller and
power assist decreases when the steering effort would normally be low, (for example, when driving at high speeds or
straight ah€ad).

Check the following betore you begin:
. Has the susp€nsion been modified in a way that would affect steering?. Are tire sizes and air pressure correct?
. ls the steering whe€l original squipment or equivalent?
. ls the power steering pump belt properly adiusted?
o ls steering fluid reservoir filled to proper level?
o ls the engine idle speed correct and steady?

lf it reads high, check the feed line or valve body
unit (see General Troubleshooting l7-10).
Close the shut-off valve. then close the pressure
