Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair
General Precautions
Please read the following precautions carefully before servicing the airbag system. Observe the instructions described in this manual, or the airbags could
accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
-
Except when doing electrical inspections, always turn the ignition switch OFF, ground the SCS line with the HDS to take the PCM out of active
status, disconnect the negative cable from the battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before beginning work.
NOTE: The SRS memory is not erased even if the ignition switch is turned OFF or the battery cables are disconnected from the battery.
-
Use replacement parts which are manufactured to the same standards and quality as the original parts. Do not install used SRS parts. 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 audio system has a coded theft protection circuit. Make sure you have the anti-theft codes for the audio system and the navigation
system (if equipped)
-
Before returning the vehicle to the client, enter the anti-theft codes for the audio system and the navigation system (if equipped)
-
If you disconnects the battery cable, the power tilt and telescopic steering wheel system needs to be reset when you reconnect the battery cable. Do
the Steering Column Position Memorization.
