General Precautions
General Precautions
Please read the following precautions carefully before performing the airbag system service. Observe the instructions described or the airbags could
accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
Except when performing electrical inspections, always turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative cable from the battery, and wait at least
three minutes before beginning work.
NOTE: The contents in the memory is not erased even if the ignition switch is turned OFF or the battery cables are disconnected from the battery.
Use the replacement parts which are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts and quality. Do not install used SRS parts from another
vehicle. Use only new parts when making SRS repairs.
Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it. Do not install any part that shows signs of being dropped or improperly handled, such as dents,
cracks or deformation.
Before removing any of the SRS parts (including the disconnection of the connectors), always disconnect the SRS connector.
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If it is not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output is 10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the
lowest value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher output could cause accidental deployment and possible injury.
Do not put objects on the front passenger's airbag.
The original radio has a coded theft protection circuit. Be sure to get the customer's radio code before disconnecting the battery cable.
