Improper Handling Of Airbag Assembly
-
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:
-
Airbag assemblies
-
Cable reel
-
SRS unit
-
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output is 10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to
the smallest value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher output could damage the airbag circuit or cause accidental deployment and
possible injury.
-
Do not install used SRS parts from another vehicle. When making SRS repairs, use only new parts.
-
Except when performing electrical inspections, always disconnect both the negative cable and positive cable from the battery, and wait at least
three minutes before beginning work.
-
Replacement of the combination light and wiper washer switches and cruise control switch can be done without removing the steering wheel:
*
Combination light and wiper/washer switch replacement.
*
Cruise control set/resume switch replacement.
-
Whenever the ignition switch is ON, or has been turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful not to bump the SRS unit; the airbags could
accidentally deploy and cause damage or injury.
-
Whenever the airbag has been activated, replace the SRS unit.
-
The original radio has a coded theft protection circuit. Be sure to get the customer's code number before disconnecting the battery cables.

WARNING:
Do not use test equipment on the yellow SRS wires and connectors in the steering column, console, dashboard, and floor. You could
unintentionally set off the airbags, which could cause injury to you and others.
While working on other systems, be careful not to damage SRS wiring or components. Damage could make the airbags inoperative, which
could lead to the driver's or the passenger's injury or death it the car were in a severe frontal collision.
