Certain air bag system components must be inspected after any
crash, whether the air bag system activated or not.
Those components are :
• Steering column (1) and shaft joints
– Check for length, damage and bend according to “CHECK-
ING STEERING COLUMN FOR ACCIDENT DAMAGE” in
SECTION 3C.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty

– Check for damage and bent.
If any faulty condition is found in above checks, replace faulty

CAUTION:
• All air bag system components, including the electrical harness (component mounting points),
must be inspected after an accident. If any components are damaged or bent, they must be replaced
even if air bag system activation did not occur.
• Never use air bag system parts from another vehicle.
• Do not attempt to service the parts below. Service of these parts is by replacement only.
– Driver/Passenger/Side air bag (inflator) module, Driver/Passenger seat belt pretensioner
– SDM

used. Refer to “AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK” when checking the SDM.
