SERVICE POINTS OF REMOVAL1. DISCONNECTION OF THE NEGATIVE
(-) BATTERY
CABLE FROM THE BATTERYTurn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position, disconnect
the negative battery cable and tape the terminal.
Caution
Wait at least 30 seconds after disconnecting the battery
cable before doing any further work. The SRS system is
designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bagfor a short time even after the battery has been
disconnected, so serious injury may result from unin-
tended air bag deployment if work is done on the SRSsystem immediately after the battery cable is discon-
nected.5. DISCONNECTION OF THE SRS DIAGNOSIS UNIT AND
EACH HARNESS CONNECTOR(1) Use a screwdriver to push in the lock spring of the lock
lever of the SRS diagnosis unit to unlock the lock lever.
CautionA double-lock mechanism is employed for the
connector of the SRS diagnosis unit, so care mustbe taken not to damage the connector by using
excessive force or by not disconnecting it correctly.(2) Remove each connector from the SRS diagnosis unit
while pressing down the lock of each connector. (Refer
to
P.52B-9.)
INSPECTIONlCheck the SRS diagnosis unit case and brackets for dents,
cracks or deformities.
lCheck connectors and lock lever for damage, and terminals
for deformities.
CautionIf a dent, cracks, deformation or rust discovered,
replace the SRS diagnosis unit with a new one.
NOTEFor checking of the SRS diagnosis unit other than described
above, refer to the section concerning troubleshooting.
(Refer to
P.52B-17.)

AIR BAG MODULE AND CLOCK SPRINGM52PDCA
Caution1. Never attempt to disassemble or repair the
air bag module or clock spring.
If faulty, replace it.
2. Do not drop the air bag module or clock
spring or allow contact with water, grease or
oil.Replace it if a dent, crack, deformation or
rust are detected.
3.The air bag module should be stored on a flat
surface and placed so that the pad surface isfacing upward.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION1
l After setting the steering wheel antthe front wheels to the stralghtaheaposltion. remove the ignition key.5NmDo not place anything on top of it.
4.Do not expose the air bag module to temper-ILJ
ature over 93°C (200°F).
5After an air bag has deployed, replace with anew air bag module and check the SRS
operability.6. Wear gloves and safety glasses when han-
dling an air bag that has already deployed.
7. An undeployed air bag module should only
be disposed of in accordance with the proce-dures
[P.52B-69 - P.52B-721.

SERVICE POINTS OF REMOVAL1. DISCONNECTION OF THE NEGATIVE (-) BATTERY
CABLE FROM THE BATTERYTurn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position, disconnect
the negative battery cable and tape the terminal.
Caution
Wait at least 30 seconds after disconnecting the battery
cable before doing any further work. The SRS system is
designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bagfor a short time even after the battery has been
disconnected, so serious injury may result from unin-
tended air bag deployment if work is done on the SRSsystem immediately after the battery cable is discon-
nected.2. REMOVAL OF AIR BAG MODULE
(1) Remove the air bag module mounting nut using a
socket wrench from the back side.
(2) When disconnecting the connector of the clock spring
from the air bag module, press the air bag’s lock toward
the outer side to spread it open. Use a screwdriver, as
shown in the figure at the left, to pry so as to remove
the connector gently.
CautionWhen disconnecting the air bag module-clock
spring connector, take care not to apply excessiveforce to it.
(3) The removed air bag module should be stored in a
clean, dry place with the pad cover face up.
8. REMOVAL OF STEERING WHEEL
Remove the steering wheel by using a steering wheel
puller.
CautionDo not hammer on the steering wheel. Doing so may
damage the collapsible column mechanism.
9. DISCONNECTION OF THE SRS DIAGNOSIS UNIT AND
CLOCK SPRING CONNECTION
(1) Remove the rear console assembly.
(Refer to GROUP 52A
- Floor Console.)
(2) Use a screwdriver to push in the lock spring of the lock
lever of the SRS diagnosis unit to unlock the lock lever.
Caution
A double-lock mechanism is employed for the connec-
tor of the SRS diagnosis unit, so care must be taken notto damage it by using excessive force or by not
disconnecting it correctly.

ment.
(4) Reconnect negative terminal of battery, and turn the
ignition key to the “ON” position.
(5) Conduct self-diagnosis using Multi-use Tester to ensure
entire SRS operates properly, except open circuit of air bag
module (“22. SQUIB TRBL 2”). (Refer to
P.52B-18.)(6) Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position, disconnect
the negative battery cable and tape the terminal.
Caution
Wait at least 30 seconds after disconnecting the battery
cable before doing any further work. The SRS system is
designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bagfor a short time even after the battery has been
disconnected, so serious injury may result from unin-
tended air bag deployment if work is done on the SRSsystem immediately after the battery cable is discon-
nected.
11. INSTALLATION OF CLOCK SPRINGAlign the mating mark and “NEUTRAL” position indicator of
the clock spring, and, after turning the front wheels to the
straight-ahead position,install the clock spring to the
column switch.
CautionIf the clock spring’s mating mark, is not properly
aligned, the steering wheel may not be completely
rotational during a turn, or the flat cable within the
clock spring may be severed, obstructing normal
operation of the SRS and possibly leading to serious
injury to the vehicle’s driver.
9. CLOCK SPRING AND SRS DIAGNOSIS UNIT CONNEC-
TIONAfter securely and correctly installing the clock spring’s
connector to the SRS diagnosis unit, be absolutely sure to
press down the lock lever of the SRS diagnosis unit.
13R072113R072;8. INSTALLATION OF STEERING WHEEL
(1) Before installing the steering wheel, be sure to first turn
the vehicle’s front wheels to the straight-ahead position
and align the mating mark and “NEUTRAL” position
indicator of the clock spring.
Caution
Be sure when installing the steering wheel, that the
harness of the clock spring does not become caughtor tangled.
(2) After clamping, turn the steering wheel all the way in
both directions to confirm that steering is normal.
