5–8840–2421–0 SRS Driver/Passenger
Load Tool
901RS146The SRS Driver/Passenger Load Tool 5–8840–2421–0 is
used only when called for in this section. It is used as a
diagnostic aid and safety device to prevent inadvertent air
bag assembly deployment.
The load tool has three yellow connectors attached to its
case.
The three small connectors are electrically functional and
serve as resistive load substitutions.
No more than two connectors are used at any time. One
of the small connectors is used to substitute for the load of
the driver air bag assembly when it is connected at the top
of the column to the SRS coil assembly. Another small
connector is used to substitute for the load of the driver air
bag assembly and the SRS coil assembly when it is
connected at the base of the column to the SRS wiring
harness. The third small connector is used to substitute
for the load of the passenger air bag assembly and
pretensioner seat belt assembly when connected to the
passenger air bag assembly and pretensioner seat belt
assembly harness connector.
By substituting the resistance of the load tool when called
for, a determination can be made as to whether an inflator
circuit component is causing system malfunction and
which component is causing the malfunction. The loadtool should be used only when specifically called for in the
diagnostic procedures.
NOTE: If comand to use 5–8840–2421–0 load tool when
repair the pretensioner seat belt, connect load tool
connector to use for driver air bag and/or passenger air
bag connector.
5–8840–0285–0 DVM
901RS153The 5–8840–0285–0 DVM is the preferred DVM for use in
SRS diagnosis and repair. However, 5–8840–0366–0
may be used if 5–8840–0285–0 is not available. No other
DVMs are approved for SRS diagnosis and repair.

Service Precautions for SRS
Component Service
CAUTION: When fasteners are removed, always
reinstall them at the same location from which they
were removed. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use
the correct part number fastener for that application.
If the correct part number fastener is not available, a
fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger) may
be used. fasteners that are not reused, and those
requiring thread locking compound will be called
out. The correct torque value must be used when
installing fasteners that require it. If the above
conditions are not followed, parts or system damage
could result.
WARNING: WHEN PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
AROUND SRS COMPONENTS OR SRS WIRING,
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES LISTED BELOW TO
TEMPORARILY DISABLE THE SRS. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW PROCEDURES COULD RESULT IN
POSSIBLE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL
INJURY OR OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS REPAIRS.
The SDM in Driver–Passenger SRS can maintain
sufficient voltage to cause a deployment for up to 15
seconds after the ignition switch is turned “OFF,” the
battery is disconnected, or the fuse powering the SDM is
removed.
Many of the service procedures require removal of the
“C–21” fuse, and disconnection of the air bag assembly
from the deployment loop to avoid an accidental
deployment. If the air bag assembly is disconnected from
the deployment loop as noted in the “Disabling the SRS”
procedure that follows, service can begin immediately
without waiting for the 15 second time period to expire.
Disabling The SRS
Removal
Turn the ignition switch to “OFF” and turn the steering
wheel so that the vehicle’s wheels are pointing straight
ahead.
1. Remove SRS fuse “C–21” from left dash side lower
fuse block or disconnect battery.
2. Disconnect yellow 2–pin connector at the base of
steering column.
3 . R e m o v e g l o v e b o x a s s e m b l y ; R e f e r t o “ P a s s e n g e r a i r
bag assembly replacement” in this section.
4. Disconnect passenger air bag assembly yellow 2–pin
connector behind the glove box assembly.
CAUTION: W i t h t h e “ C – 2 1 ” f u s e r e m o v e d a n d
ignition switch “ON,” the “AIR BAG” warning lamp
will be “ON.” This is normal operation and does not
indicate an SRS malfunction.
Enabling The SRS
Installation
Turn ignition switch to “LOCK” and remove key.
1. Connect yellow 2–pin connector passenger air bag
assembly.2. Install glove box assembly. Refer to “Passenger Air
Bag Assembly Replacement” in this section.
3. Connect yellow 2–pin connector at the base of the
steering column.
4. Install “AIR BAG” fuse “C–21” to left dash side lower
fuse block or connect battery.
Turn ignition switch to “ON” and verify that the “AIR BAG”
warning lamp turn on 3.5 seconds and then turns “OFF.” If
it does not operate as described, perform the “SRS
Diagnostic System Check” in this section.
Handling / Installation / Diagnosis
1. Air bag assembly should not be subjected to
temperatures above 93
C (200F).
2. Air bag assembly, and SDM should not be used if they
have been dropped from a height of 100 centimeters
(3.28 feet) or more.
3. When a SDM is replaced, it must be oriented with the
arrow on the SDM pointing toward the front of the
vehicle. It is very important for the SDM to be located
flat on the mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle
datum line. It is important that the SDM mounting
surface is free of any dirt or other foreign material.
4. Do not apply power to the SRS unless all components
are connected or a diagnostic chart requests it, as
this will set a diagnostic trouble code.
5. The “SRS Diagnostic System Check” must be the
starting point of any SRS diagnostics. The “SRS
Diagnostic System Check” will verify proper “AIR
BAG” warning lamp operation and will lead you to the
correct chart to diagnose any SRS malfunctions.
Bypassing these procedures may result in extended
diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect
parts replacements.
Inspections Required After An Accident
CAUTION: C e r t a i n S R S c o m p o n e n t s m u s t b e

Service Precaution
WARNING: IF SO EQUIPPED WITH A
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS),
REFER TO THE SRS COMPONENT AND WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING. WHEN YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE
ON OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING, REFER TO THE SRS SERVICE
INFORMATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
