Battery Interrupt Igniter -N253-, REMOVING AND INSTALLING: Installing
- Follow all Safety Precautions when working with pyrotechnic components. Refer to PYROTECHNIC, ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM COMPONENTS, SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND TESTING PROCEDURES .
- Before handling airbag units (for example, disconnecting electrical connector), the person handling it must "discharge static electricity". This can be done by touching the door striker, for example.
Install in reverse order of removal. Observe the following when doing so:
-- Observe the specified tightening specification. Refer to Tightening Specifications .
Make sure the connectors are installed correctly and are secure.
Make sure the wires do not get caught.
Ignition must be on when connecting battery. If pyrotechnic components (for example, airbag, belt tensioner) are not repaired correctly, they may deploy unintentionally after connecting battery. Maintain personal safety when connecting the battery by staying out of airbag deployment areas, keeping a distance from belt tensioners/seat belts and ensuring no other people are in the vehicle interior at the moment when the battery is connected.
-- Switch on ignition.
-- Turn on the ignition and connect the battery ground cable. Refer to BATTERY, DISCONNECTING AND CONNECTING .
-- Check the Airbag Control Module -J234- DTC memory and correct any faults, if necessary. Refer to Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
