Note:
When the seat belt pretensioner deploys, the deployment fixture may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This is a normal
reaction of the seat belt pretensioner due to the force of the rapid expansion of gas inside the pretensioner.
Place a 12V minimum/2A minimum power source (i.e., vehicle battery) near the shorted end of the harness.
16.
Connect the SIR deployment harness wires to the power source. Pretensioner deployment will occur when contact is made.
17.
Disconnect the SIR deployment harness from the power source after the pretensioner deploys.
18.
Seat one banana plug into the other in order to short the deployment harness leads.
19.
If the pretensioner did not deploy, disconnect the adapter and discontinue the procedure. Contact the Technical Assistance Group.
Otherwise, proceed to the following steps.
20.
Put on a pair of shop gloves.
21.
Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the pretensioner as soon as possible.
22.
Inspect the pigtail adapter and the SIR deployment harness. Replace as needed.
23.
Dispose of the deployed pretensioner through normal refuse channels.
24.
Wash hands with a mild soap.
