Procedure In-vehicle Deployment (Driver-side AIR Bag)

  1. Use this procedure if scrapping a vehicle with an undeployed air bag. This procedure assumes that air bag wiring is intact.
  2. Disconnect and shield negative battery cable. Disconnect 2-pin clockspring at base of steering column. Cut 2-pin clockspring connector of at clockspring side of harness.
  3. Strip 1" (25 mm) of insulation from wire ends. Make a harness consisting of 2 wires 20 feet or longer. Connect 20-foot wires to clockspring harness. Ensure there are no loose parts in passenger compartment and no one is within 20 feet of vehicle.
  4. Staying at least 20 feet away from vehicle, connect other 2 ends of 20 foot wires to terminals of a 12-volt battery. When deployment is achieved, loud bang will be heard and air bag will inflate. After air bag module deploys, let module cool and dust settle before approaching. If air bag fails to deploy, go to PROCEDURE 2.
