WARNING: Store a removed airbag assembly with the pad surface up. If the airbag is improperly stored face down, accidental deployment
could propel the unit with enough force to cause serious injury.
CAUTION:
-
Carefully inspect the airbag assembly before installing. Do not install an airbag assembly that shows signs of being dropped or
improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or deformation.
-
Before disconnecting the airbag connector(s), turn off the ignition switch and wait for at least 3 minutes to let the capacitor in the
back-up circuit discharge. This will prevent a malfunction of the seat belt pretensioners.
-
Before disconnecting any part of the SRS wire harness, install short connectors (RED) on the air- bag(s) and both seat belt pretensioners.
After installing the short connector(s) on the airbag(s), immediately install one Short Connector "A" (Tool Number O7MAZSPOO2OO)
on the cable reel connector (for the driver's airbag), and another on the SRS main harness connector (for the passenger's airbag). This
will prevent any static electricity from triggering the seat belt pretensioners before you disconnect them - refer to "Short Connector
Installation" procedure.
-
Do not disassemble or tamper with the airbag assembly.
NOTE: Before disconnecting the battery cable, be sure you get the customer's anti-theft radio code number.
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable and then disconnect the positive cable.
2. Make sure the wheels are aligned straight ahead.
3. Remove the dashboard lower panel and glove box.
4. Install the short connector on the airbag(s) and the seat belt pretensioners - refer to "Short Connector Installation" procedure.
5. Remove the upper and lower column covers.
