Inspection After Deployment

After a collision in which the airbags were deployed, inspect the following:

1. Inspect the dash sensors for physical damage. If the sensors are damaged, replace them.
2. Inspect all the SRS wire harness. Replace, don't repair, any damaged harness.
3. Inspect the cable reel for heat damage. If there is any damaged, replace the cable reel.
4. Remove the glove box and the access panel. Remove the passenger side airbag assembly.
5. Check for cracks around the passenger side airbag opening. If any cracks are found, replace the dashboard.
6. After the car is completely repaired, turn the ignition switch ON. If the SRS indicator light comes ON for about six seconds and then goes OFF, the SRS system is OK. If the indicator light does not function properly, refer to On Board Diagnostics.
