General Module: Testing and Inspection

Integrated Control Unit - Input Test:

CAUTION:
^ All SRS wire harnesses are covered with yellow insulation. Before you disconnect any part of an SRS wire harness, disconnect the airbag connectors.
^ Whenever the ignition switch ON (II), or has been turned OFF for less than three minutes, be careful not to bump the SRS unit; the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
^ For additional precautions, refer to Air Bags and Seat Belts.

Integrated Control Unit - Input Test:

1. Remove the driver's side kick panel, then disconnect the 16-P connector from the integrated control unit.
2. Remove the integrated control unit from the under-dash fuse/relay box.
3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
^ If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
^ If the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connectors.
- If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
- If all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.
