[52B] SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) - - AIR BAG MODULE(S) AND CLOCK SPRING - INSPECTION | PRINT PAGE / INDEX / PRIOR / NEXT

INSPECTION
| AIR BAG MODULE CHECK WARNING If any component damage is found during the following inspection, replace the air bag module(s) with a new one. Dispose of the old one according to the specified procedure (Refer to ). Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of he air bag module (squib) even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental air bag module(s) deployment will result in serious personal injury. Check the pad cover for dents, cracks or deformation.
| Check the connectors for damage, the terminals for deformation, and the harness for binds. Check the air bag inflator case for dents, cracks or deformation. Install the air bag module (driver’s side) to the steering wheel and check fit and alignment with the wheel. Install the air bag module (front passenger’s side) to the instrument panel and front deck crossmember and check fit and alignment.
| FRONT SEATBACK ASSEMBLY WITH SIDE AIR BAG MODULE CHECK WARNING If any improper part is found during the following inspection, replace the front seatback assembly with a new one. Dispose of the old one according to the specified procedure (Refer to ). Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the air bag module (squib) even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental air bag deployment will result in serious personal injury.
| Check the air bag module deployment section for dents or deformation. Check the connector for damage, the terminals for deformation, and the harness for binds.
| CLOCK SPRING CHECK
| If any malfunction is found in the following inspections, replace the clock spring with a new one. Check the connectors and protective tube for damage, and the terminals for deformation. Visually check the case for damage. Check to see that there is a charge (continuity) between the C-308 clock spring connector terminal 1 and C-305 horn switch.
| CAUTION Do not directly insert a probe, etc. into the terminal from the front of the connector. Insert the special tool harness set (MB991222) from behind the C-306 air bag module connector (driver's side). As shown in the Figure, connect the circuit tester to the special tool harness set (MB991222) and check to see that there is a charge between the terminals.
