SRX RWD V8-4.6L VIN A (2006)
If the conductive portion of the wire is not damaged, locate the problem and apply tape around the wire. If the damage is more extensive, replace the
faulty segment of the wire. Refer to Splicing Copper Wire Using Splice Clips and follow the instruction to repair the wire.
SIR/SRS Wiring Repairs
SIR/SRS WIRING REPAIRS
TOOLS REQUIRED
J-38125 Terminal Repair Kit
The Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) System/Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) requires special wiring repair procedures due to the
sensitive nature of the circuitry. Follow the specific procedures and instructions when working with the SIR/SRS, and the wiring components, such as
connectors and terminals.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the terminals in the kit in order to replace damaged SIR/SRS terminals unless specifically indicated by the terminal
package.
The tool kit J-38125 contains the following items:
-
DuraSeal splice sleeves, in order to repair the SIR/SRS wiring
-
A wire stripping tool
-
A special crimping tool
-
A heat torch
-
An instruction manual
The DuraSeal splice sleeves have the following 2 critical features:
-
A special heat shrink sleeve environmentally seals the splice. The heat shrink sleeve contains a sealing adhesive inside.
-
A cross hatched (knurled) core crimp provides necessary contact integrity for the sensitive, low energy circuits.
The J-38125 also serves as a generic terminal repair kit. The kit contains the following items:
-
A large sampling of common electrical terminals
-
The correct tools in order to attach the terminals to the wires
-
The correct tools in order to remove the terminals from the connectors
SIR/SRS CONNECTOR REPAIR (PLASTIC BODY AND TERMINAL METAL PIN)
Use the connector repair assembly packs in order to repair the damaged SIR/SRS wire harness connectors and the terminals. Do not use the connector
repair assembly pack in order to repair the pigtails. These kits include an instruction sheet and the DuraSeal splice sleeves. Use the DuraSeal splice
sleeves in order to splice the new wires, connectors, and terminals to the harness. The splice crimping tool is color keyed in order to match the splices
from the J-38125. You must use the splice crimping tool in order to apply these splices.
The terminals in the SIR/SRS are made of a special metal. This metal provides the necessary contact integrity for the sensitive, low energy circuits.
These terminals are only available in the connector repair assembly packs. Do not substitute any other terminals for those in the assembly packs.
If the individual terminals are damaged on the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) harness connector, use one of the following 2 components in
order to replace the SDM harness connector:
