Head Curtain Airbag With Igniter, Removing And Installing: Installing
- Follow all safety precautions when working with pyrotechnic components. Refer to PYROTECHNIC COMPONENTS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS .
- Always follow head curtain airbag installation procedure.
Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example, connecting the connector), the person handling it must "discharge static electricity". This can be done by touching the door striker, for example.
-- Engage the head curtain airbag -1- at the rear on the body -arrow A- and push forward.
-- Engage the front head curtain airbag on the body -arrow B-.
-- Tighten the bolt -3-.
-- Connect the connector -1- on the head curtain airbag igniter -2-.
-- Install the connector locking mechanism -arrow B-. While doing this, the connector is pushed into the head curtain airbag igniter and locks into place.
-- Attach the head curtain airbag limiting strap to the A-pillar.
Replace the clips -1- and -2- if the removal is due to a crash.
-- Clip the clips -1 and 2- with the tab -3- for the head curtain airbag in the body.
-- Engage the head curtain airbag in the clips.
-- Install the clips for the head curtain airbag in the following sequence: -1 and 5-. They must audibly clip into the body.
-- Make sure the "black line" -6- is visible over the entire length. By making sure it is will ensure that the head curtain airbag is NOT twisted.
Installation is performed in reverse order of removal, while noting the following:
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. There must not be anyone inside the vehicle when connecting the battery.
-- Connect the battery ground cable with the ignition turned on.
If the Airbag Indicator Lamp -K75- indicates a fault, check the DTC memory, erase it and check it again using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
