Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair

Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming

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 Procedures.

Please read the precautions carefully before servicing the SRS, or the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.

- Except when doing electrical inspections that requires battery power, always turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait at least 3 minutes before starting work.
NOTE: The SRS memory is not erased even if the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0) or the battery cables are disconnected from the battery.
