SRS Unit, Front and Side Impact Sensors, Driver's Seat Position Sensor and Front Passenger's Weight Sensors
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Some systems store data in memory that is lost when the battery is disconnected. Before disconnecting the battery, refer to BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION AND RECONNECTION
.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION AND RECONNECTION ), then wait at least 3 minutes before beginning installation or replacement of the SRS unit or disconnecting the connectors from the SRS unit.
- Be careful not to bump or impact the SRS unit, the front impact sensors, or the side impact sensors when the ignition switch is in ON (II), or for at least 3 minutes after the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0).
- Do not reconnect any connectors to the SRS unit until it is fully installed, including torquing the TORX bolts.
- During installation or replacement, be careful not to bump (by impact wrench, hammer, etc.) the area around the SRS unit, the front impact sensors, or the side impact sensors. The airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injury.
- After a collision where the front airbag, the side airbag, the side curtain airbags, or the seat belt tensioner deployed, go to COMPONENT REPLACEMENT/INSPECTION AFTER DEPLOYMENT . After a collision where the airbags or the side airbags did not deploy, inspect for any damage or any deformation on the SRS unit, the front impact sensors and the side impact sensors. Also, do the front seat active head restraint inspection (see FRONT SEAT ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT INSPECTION ). Replace all damaged parts.
- Do not disassemble the SRS unit, the front impact sensors, the side impact sensors, the driver's seat position sensor, and front passenger's seat weight sensors.
- Always install the SRS unit and all impact sensors securely with the new TORX bolts to the specified torque.
- Do not spill water or oil on the SRS unit or any of the sensors.
