19. SRS AIR BAG (INSPECT FOR SRS SYSTEM)M1001003700326
The entire SRS including air bag and pre-tensioner seat belt
must be inspected by an authorized MITSUBISHI MOTORS
dealer 10 years.
SRS WARNING LIGHT CHECK
Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position. Does the
"SRS" warning light illuminate for several seconds, and then go
out? If yes, the SRS system is functioning properly. If no, refer
to GROUP 52B, Diagnosis P.52B-215.
SRS COMPONENT VISUAL CHECK
Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the bat-
tery cable before doing any further work. The SRS
system is designed to retain enough voltage to
deploy the air bag for a short time even after the bat-
tery has been disconnected. Serious injury may result
from unintended air bag deployment if work is done
on the SRS system immediately after the battery
cable is disconnected.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories con-
tain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER
HANDLING.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position,
disconnect the negative battery cable and tape the terminal.
2. Remove the floor console assembly (Refer to GROUP 52A,
Floor Console P.52A-10).
3. Disconnect a connector from the SRS-ECU.
