Carefully read and observe the information in the SERVICE PRECAUTIONS (P.52B-3.) prior to any service.

For information concerning troubleshooting or maintenance, always observe the procedures in the Troubleshooting
(P.52B-6.) section.

If any SRS components are removed or replaced in connection with any service procedures, be sure to follow the
procedures in the INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SERVICE section (P.52B-22.) for the components involved.

If you have any questions about the SRS, please contact your local distributor.

SRS – General Information52B-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
To improve safety, the SRS is available as optional
part.
The SRS consists of two air bag modules, SRS
air bag control unit (SRS-ECU), SRS warning lamp
and clock spring. One air bag is located in the
centre of the steering wheel and another above
the glove box. Each air bag has a folded air bag
and an inflator unit. The control unit under the floor
console monitors the system and has a safing G
sensor and an analog G sensor. The warning lamp
on the instrument panel indicates the operationalstatus of the SRS. The clock spring is installed
in the steering column.
Only authorized service personnel should do work
on or around the SRS components. Those service
personnel should read this manual carefully before
staring any such work. Extreme care must be used
when servicing the SRS to avoid injury to the service
personnel (by inadvertent deployment of the air
bags) or the driver (by rendering the SRS
inoperative).

SRS – SRS Service Precautions52B-3
SRS SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
1. In order to avoid injury to yourself or others
from accidental deployment of the air bag during
servicing, read and carefully follow all the
precautions and procedures described in this
manual.
2. Do not use any electrical test equipment on
or near SRS components, except those
specified on P.52B-5.
3. Never Attempt to Repair the Following
Components:

SRS air bag control unit (SRS-ECU)

Clock Spring

Air Bag Module
(Driver‘s side or front passenger’s side*)NOTE
*: Vehicles with front passenger’s air bag
If any of these components are diagnosed as
faulty, they should only be replaced, in
accordance with the INDIVIDUAL COM-
PONENT SERVICE procedures in this manual,
starting at page 52B-22.
4. After disconnecting the battery cable, wait 60 seconds
or more before proceeding with the following work.
The SRS system is designed to retain enough voltage
to deploy the air bag for a short time even after the
battery has been disconnected, so serious injury may
result from unintended air bag deployment if work
is done on the SRS system immediately after the
battery cables are disconnected.
5. Do not attempt to repair the wiring harness connectors
of the SRS. If any of the connectors are diagnosed as
faulty, replace the wiring harness. If the wires are
diagnosed as faulty, replace or repair the wiring harness
according to the following table.

module and clock spring before drying or baking the vehicle after painting.
7. Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check warning lamp operation to make sure that the system
functions properly. (Refer to P.52B-14.)
8. Make certain that the ignition switch is LOCK (OFF) position when the MUT-II is connected or
