Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Deactivation and Reactivation: Reactivation
- Remove the RCM fuse 22 (10A) from the CJB.
- Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute. For additional information, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
- Remove the restraint system diagnostic tool from the driver seat side air bag electrical connector.
- Connect the driver seat side air bag module electrical connector, located at the lower rear of the seat cushion pan.
- Remove the restraint system diagnostic tool from the passenger seat side air bag electrical connector.
- Connect the passenger seat side air bag module electrical connector, located at the lower rear of the seat cushion pan.
- Disconnect the passenger air bag module jumper harness from the passenger air bag module electrical connector on the vehicle wiring harness.
- Separate the locking inserts and disconnect the 2 restraint system diagnostic tools from the passenger air bag module jumper harness electrical connectors.
- Align and connect the passenger air bag module jumper harness electrical connectors to the passenger air bag module and install the locking inserts.
- Make sure the J-nuts on the passenger air bag module are fully seated into the slots.
- Install the passenger air bag module into the instrument panel.
- Position the passenger air bag module into the instrument panel.
- Install the 2 bolts.
- Tighten to 3 Nm (27 lb-in).
- Through the glove compartment opening, install the 2 passenger air bag module bolts.
- Tighten to 9 Nm (80 lb-in).
- Connect the passenger air bag module electrical connector and attach the pin-type retainer to the bracket.
- Install the trim panel.
- Connect the rear window defrost switch electrical connector.
- If equipped, connect the clock electrical connector.
- Connect the PAD indicator.
- Align the retaining clips, slide the trim panel to the left and push in, seating the retaining clips.
- Connect the glove compartment isolator. Close the glove compartment.
- Remove the 2 restraint system diagnostic tools from the clockspring electrical connectors at the top of the steering column.
- Connect the driver air bag module.
- Connect the horn electrical connector.
- Connect the driver air bag module electrical connectors as noted during removal.
- Install the driver air bag module electrical wiring into the driver air bag wiring clip.
CAUTION: The clockspring electrical connectors are unique and cannot be reversed when connected to the driver air bag module. Match the electrical connector key to the keyway in the driver air bag module. Do not force the electrical connectors into the driver air bag module. - Align the 4 driver air bag module locking pins to the openings in the steering wheel and position the driver air bag module in place.
- With the locking pins aligned and the driver air bag module positioned to the steering wheel, push inward seating the 4 locking pins to the spring clips.
- An audible click should be heard when the driver air bag module locking pins are seated in place to the spring clip. When the 4 locking pins are seated in place, there should be an even uniform gap between the driver air bag module trim cover and the steering wheel.
- Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
- Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
- Install the RCM fuse 22 (10A) to the CJB and install the cover.
- Connect the battery ground cable. For additional information, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
- Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows:
Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light continuously for approximately 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a diagnostic tool.
