Passenger-side air bag module

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Mazda CX-30. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
  • The passenger-side air bag module is a dual inflator type. If the inflators are activated (deployed) one by one, the other side may be activated (deployed) unexpectedly. To prevent injury when disposing of the air bag module, always activate (deploy) both inflators on the passenger-side air bag module using the following procedure.
  1. Remove the following parts:
    1. Dashboard under cover (See DASHBOARD UNDER COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    2. Passenger-side decoration panel (See DECORATION PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    3. Passenger-side front scuff plate (See FRONT SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    4. Passenger-side front side trim (See FRONT SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    5. Passenger-side lower panel (See LOWER PANEL DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY (US) .)

  2. Pull out the connector stopper plate using a flathead screwdriver.
  3. Disconnect the connectors.
  4. Connect the processing wiring harness to the passenger-side air bag module.
  5. Verify that all persons are standing at least 6 m {19 ft} away from the vehicle.
  6. Untwist the processing wiring harness.
  7. Connect the processing wiring harness to the lead-acid battery and activate the inflator.
WARNING:
  • Check that the air bag module makes two activation sounds (explosion sounds). If there is no or only one activation sound (explosion sound), the inflators on both sides have not activated (deployed) properly, and may cause injury due to unexpected activation (deployment). If the two operation (explosive) sounds are not heard, perform Step  7 again. If the two activation sounds (explosion sounds) cannot be verified even after performing Step  7 again, wait for 30 min or more and then approach the air bag module.
