General Precautions
Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it.
Do not install any part that shows sings of being
dropped or improperly handled, such as dents,
cracks or deformation:
— Airbag assembly (driver's and passenger's).
— Dash sensors.
— Cable reel.
— SRS unit.
— Seat belt tensioner (driver's and passenger's).
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If
it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output is
10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the smallest
value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higher
output could damage the airbag circuit or cause ac-
cidental deployment and possible injury.
Do not install used SRS parts from another car.
When making SRS repairs, use only new parts.
Except when performing electrical inspections, always
disconnect both the negative cable and positive ca-
ble at the battery before beginning work.

wiper/washer switches and cruise control switch
