Maintenance Items
CAUTION:
Do not use a circuit tester to check SRS circuit.
1. Check operation of ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp.
After turning ignition key to ``ON'' position, both warning lamps
illuminate. The ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp will go off after about
7 seconds if no malfunction is detected.
If any of the following warning lamp conditions occur, immedi-
ately check the air bag or seat belt pre-tensioner system. Refer
to RS-30 for details.
+The ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned ``ON''.
+The ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp does not go off about 7 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned ``ON''.
+The ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp blinks about 7 seconds after the
ignition switch is turned ``ON''.
2. Visually check SRS components.
(1) Diagnosis sensor unit
+Check diagnosis sensor unit and bracket for dents, cracks or
deformities.
+Check connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities.
(2) Air bag module and steering wheel
+Remove air bag module from steering wheel or instrument
panel. Check harness cover and connectors for damage, ter-
minals for deformities, and harness for binding.
+Install driver air bag module to steering wheel to check ®t or
alignment with the wheel.
+Check steering wheel for excessive free play.
+For dual air bag system, install passenger air bag module to
instrument panel to check ®t or alignment with the instrument
panel.
(3) Spiral cable
+Check spiral cable for dents, cracks, or deformities.
+Check connectors and protective tape for damage.
+Check steering wheel for noise, binding or heavy operation.
(4) Harness related to SRS
+Check connectors for poor connections, damage, and terminals
for deformities.
+Check harnesses for binding, cha®ng or cut.
(5) Seat belt pre-tensioner
+Check harness cover and connectors for damage, terminals for
deformities, and harness for binding.
+Check belts for damage and anchors for loose mounting.
+Check retractor for smooth operation.
+Perform self-diagnosis for seat belt pre-tensioner using
bulb or CONSULT. Refer to ``SRS Operation Check'' for details.

CAUTION:
Replace previously used special bolts, ground bolt and anchor
bolt with new ones.

To repair the SRS for a frontal collision, perform the following steps.
When SRS (except the side air bag) is activated in a collision:
V1Replace the diagnosis sensor unit.
V2Remove the air bag modules.
V3Check the SRS components using the table shown below:
+Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformation).
V4Install new air bag modules.
V5Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT and ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp. Refer to ``SRS Operation Check''
for details (RS-30). Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
When SRS is not activated in a collision:
V1Check the SRS components using the table shown below:
+Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformation).
V2Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT and ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp. Refer to ``SRS Operation Check''
for details (RS-30). Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
