Driver Side

After a collision involving a driver side air bag deployment, replace the following components. If you detect any damage to the mounting points or mounting hardware, repair or replace the mounting points and mounting hardware as needed.
^ Inflatable Restraint Driver Seat Module
^ Inflatable Restraint Side Impact Sensor (LH)
^ Inflatable Restraint Side Impact Sensor (LH) mounting bracket

After a collision involving driver side air bag deployment, inspect the LH front door harness, LH door seal and driver seat for cutting/chafing or other damage due to a side impact. Perform this component inspection in addition to the inspections indicated above in Accident With or Without Air Bag Deployment. If you detect any damage, replace the component. If you detect any damage to the mounting points or mounting hardware, repair the component or replace the hardware as needed. If Current DTC 56 is set, the SDM must also be replaced. This is because the vehicle has been involved in 3 driver side air bag deployment collisions, the maximum number of driver side air bag deployments allowed with one SDM. Select and read Reset Driver Side Air Bag from the SIR Data List using the scan tool to verify that the Driver Side Air Bag has deployed 3 times.
