11. Inspect the J 38826 and the appropriate pigtail adapter for damage. Replace as needed.
12. Short the 2 SIR deployment harness leads (1) together using one banana plug seated into the other.
IMPORTANT: Refer to Tools Required list for the correct adapter.
13. Connect the appropriate pigtail adapter (2) to the SIR deployment harness (1).
14. Extend the SIR deployment harness and adapter to full length from the deployment fixture.
IMPORTANT: On the steering wheel dual stage inflator module both connectors must be attached to the deployment harness adapter. This will
ensure that both stage 1 and stage 2 of the deployment loops are energized, regardless of the deployment state.
15. Connect the inflator module to the adapter (2) on the SIR deployment harness (1).
16. Place a 12 V minimum/2 A minimum power source, i.e., vehicle battery, near the shorted end of the harness.
IMPORTANT:
-
The rapid expansion of gas involved with deploying an inflator module is very loud. Notify all the people in the immediate area that you intend to
deploy the inflator module.
-
When the inflator module deploys, the deployment fixture may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This is a normal reaction of the inflator module
due to the force of the rapid expansion of gas inside the inflator module.
-
If you are deploying a dual stage inflator module with stage 1 already deployed, the fixture may not move and the noise may have been reduced.
17. Clear the area of people.
