Inspection Locations After a Collision
3. Inspection Locations After a
Collision
A: REPLACEMENT
When airbag system is deployed, replace the fol-
lowing parts.
1. FRONT COLLISION
1) Driver’s airbag module
2) Passenger’s airbag module
3) Driver’s seat belt (pretensioner, lap seat belt pre-
tensioner)
4) Passenger’s seat belt (pretensioner)
5) Airbag control module
6) Front sub-sensor
7) Roll connector
2. SIDE COLLISION
1) Airbag control module
2) Side airbag module (operating side seat bag)
3) Side airbag sensor (operating side)
3. INSPECTION OF OTHER PARTS
Check for the following parts, replace the damaged
parts with new ones.
1) Steering wheel and steering shaft
Check the steering wheel and steering shaft for
mounting condition and deflection of axial and radi-
al direction. Check the steering shaft for deflection
of axial direction with tilt lever released. (After a col-
lision, absorbing part of steering shaft may inflate.)
2) Check the direct type connector of driver’s air-
bag module, pretensioner, etc. for damage, and
also check each harness for pinch and connector
damage. If damage is found, replace the harness
as a unit.
B: INSPECTION
If the vehicle is involved in a collision on any side,
even if it is a slight collision, be sure to check the
following system parts.
1. DRIVER’S AIRBAG MODULE
1) Check for the following, and replace damaged
parts with new ones.
 Airbag module is cracked or deformed.
 Harness and/or connector is cracked, deformed
or open. Lead wire is exposed.
 The module surface is fouled with grease, oil,
water or cleaning solvent.
2) When installing a new driver’s airbag module,
check the following. If necessary, install a new air-
bag module and steering wheel.
 The steering wheel is in the way, making it diffi-
cult to install the airbag module. The clearance between the driver’s airbag mod-
ule and steering wheel is not constant.
 The steering wheel deformation in axial and radi-
al directions exceed limits.
Specifications:
Height deflection A
Less than 6 mm (0.24 in)
O.D. deflection L
Less than 17 mm (0.67 in)
2. PASSENGER’S AIRBAG MODULE
Check for the following, and replace damaged
parts with new ones.
 Airbag module is cracked or deformed.
 Harness and/or connector is cracked, deformed
or open. Lead wire is exposed.
 Mounting bracket is cracked or deformed.
3. SIDE AIRBAG MODULE
Check for the following, and replace damaged
parts with new ones.
 Front seat is damaged or deformed.
 Harness and/or connector is cracked, deformed
or open.
 Lead wire is exposed.
4. AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE
Check for the following, and replace damaged
parts with new ones.
 Control module is cracked or deformed.
 Mounting bracket is cracked or deformed.
 Connector is scratched or deformed.
 Airbag is deployed.
 Side airbag is deployed.
