Non-SRS Wiring Repairs: Genesis

Posted on 25 February 2022 | Share:

What is a non-SRS wiring repair? It is the repairing of an electrical component that is not part of the supplemental restraints system circuit (usually identified by yellow wire looms). As technology increases on vehicles so does the number of components that utilize electricity. Many of the sensors and modules are becoming smarter and more sensitive. If the wire is too long, wrong gauge, or spliced in the wrong location it can cause malfunctions in the components that it’s powering. Many OEMs have different restrictions and guidelines for repairing wiring that does not control SRS components. On the other hand, there are OEMs that don’t allow wiring repairs at all, so full harness replacement is the only option.

To access Genesis wiring repair information, go to www.genesistechinfo.com. Once logged in:

  1. Click on ETM from the Quick Menu (left-side of webpage)
  2. Select Model, Year, and Engine
  3. Click Search

Underneath the search bar, a menu for the Wiring Repair Kit (User’s Guide & Parts Information) will be on the left-hand side of the page.

In the wiring repair kit, you will find procedures for repairing wires and changing connectors, how to use electrical tools, and more. Here are some examples of information from the 2021 Genesis G70 Wiring Repair Kit:

  • "NOTICE - Staggering the splices will help avoid shorts."
  • "If the incorrect crimping slot is used, the terminal may be damaged and may not fit into the connector."
  • "Remove the terminal and check the terminal condition, if it is damaged, replace it with a new terminal."

It is important to read the service and repair manuals to make sure what repairs can be carried out and where, to achieve a complete, safe, and quality repair.
