SRS Unit Replacement

Removal

1. Disconnect the battery negative cable, and wait at least 3 minutes before beginning work.
2. Disconnect the airbag connectors.
3. Remove the console panel.




4. Disconnect the SRS main harness 18P connector (A) from the SRS unit.




5. Remove the three Torx bolts (A) from the SRS unit, then pull out the SRS unit from the bracket.

Installation




1. Install the new SRS unit (A) with new Torx bolts (B), then connect the SRS main harness 18P connector (C) to the SRS unit, and push them into place until they click.

NOTE:
- When tightening the Torx bolts to the specified torque after replacement, be careful to turn them in so that their heads rest squarely on the brackets.
- Secure the SRS unit with new Torx bolts. Torx bolts cannot be reused because they are treated with special parts.

2. Install the console panel.
3. Reconnect the airbag connectors.
4. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
5. After installing the SRS unit, confirm proper system operation: Turn the ignition switch ON (II); the SRS indicator should come on for about 6 seconds and then go off.
