Repairs and Inspections Required After a Collision: Service and Repair
Component Replacement/Inspection After Deployment
NOTE: Before doing any SRS repairs, use the PGM Tester SRS menu method to check for DTCs.
After a collision where the seat belt tensioners deployed, replace these items:
-
Seat belt tensioners
-
Seat belt buckle tensioner
-
SRS unit
-
Front impact sensors
After a collision where the front airbag(s) deployed, replace these items:
-
SRS unit
-
Deployed airbag(s)
-
Seat belt tensioners
-
Seat belt buckle tensioners
-
Front impact sensors
After a collision where the side airbag(s) deployed, replace these items:
-
SRS unit
-
Deployed side airbag(s)
-
Side impact sensor(s) for side(s) deployed
During the repair process, inspect these areas:
-
Inspect all the SRS wire harnesses. Replace, don't repair, any damaged harnesses.
-
Inspect the cable reel for heat damage. If there is any damage, replace the cable reel.
After the vehicle is completely repaired, turn the ignition switch ON (II). If the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and then goes off, the SRS
airbag system is OK. If the indicator does not function properly, use the PGM Tester SRS Menu Method to read the DTC. If this doesn't retrieve any
codes, use the Tester's SCS menu method. If you still cannot retrieve a code, go to SRS Indicator Circuit Troubleshooting.
