Airbag Operating Instructions

3. BEFORE STARTING TROUBLESHOOTING

• Even if any part must be replaced as the result of troubleshooting, do not use an airbag part or pretensioner
part from other vehicles. Always replace the defective parts with new parts.
• When checking the airbag system, be sure to use a digital circuit tester. Use of an analog circuit tester may
cause the airbag to activate erroneously due to a minimal current inside tester.

terminals directly.

• When checking, use a test harness (1). Damage to connector terminal causes malfunction. Do not directly
put the tester probe on airbag connector terminal.
