Air Bag Module and Seat Belt Pre-tensioner Disposal Procedures
52B-50
(5) Disconnect the deployment wires as far from the
vehicle as possible and connect the wires to the
terminals of the battery removed from the vehicle.
Deploy the side air bag module.
Caution
1) Before deploying the air bag in this manner,
first check to be sure that there is no one
in or near the vehicle. Wear safety glasses.
2) The deployment of the side air bag makes
the inflator very hot. Before handling the
inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for cooling.
3) If the air bag module fails to deploy when the
procedures above are followed, do not go near
the module. Contact your local distributor.
(6) After deployment, dispose of air bag module according
to the Deployed Air Bag Module and Seat Belt
Pre-tensioner Disposal Procedures. (Refer to
P.52B-58.)
Seat belt pre-tensioner
(1) Remove the center pillar lower trim. (Refer to GROUP
52A)
(2) <Driver’s side>
Remove the connection between the seat belt
pre-tensioner 2-pin connector (red) and the floor wiring
harness connector (2-pin).
<Front passenger’s side>
Remove the connection between the seat belt
pre-tensioner 2-pin connector (red) and the assist
wiring harness connector (2-pin).
NOTE
If the seat belt pre-tensioner connector is
disconnected from the floor or assist wiring harness,
both electrodes of the seat belt pre-tensioner
connector will be automatically shorted to prevent
unintended deployment of the seat belt pre-tensioner
due to static electricity, etc.
(3) Connect two wires, each six meters or longer, to the
two leads of SRS air bag adapter harness and cover
the connections with insulation tape. The other ends
of the two wires should be connected to each other
(short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected
deployment of the seat belt pre-tensioner.
