Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair
Enabling the SIR System
The diagnostic energy reserve module or sensing and diagnostic module (DERM/SDM) can maintain enough voltage to cause air bag
deployment for up to two minutes after the ignition switch is turned off and the battery is disconnected. Servicing the SIR system during
this period may result in accidental deployment and personal injury.
1. On models with passenger's air bag, connect yellow 2-way connector to passenger's inflator pigtail, then install Connector Position Assurance
(CPA) and righthand sound insulator.
2. On all models, connect yellow 2-way SIR electrical connector, then install Connector Position Assurance (CPA).
3. Install lefthand sound insulator. If necessary, install courtesy lamp to sound insulator.
4. Install SIR fuse, then turn ignition key to the RUN position and ensure that the "Inflatable Restraint lamp flashes seven to nine times and then turns
off. If lamp does not operate as specified, refer to Testing and Inspection.
