OEM Restraints System Part Replacement Search


2018 Alfa Romeo GIULIA

DISABLE PROCEDURE AND TIME (Always Check Service Manual)

WARNING: To avoid potential physical injury or damage to sensitive electronic circuits and systems, always disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable and the positive cable, then ground the positive cable to discharge the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) capacitor before performing any welding operations on the vehicle.

1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable.
2. Allow system capacitor to discharge for two minutes before performing further diagnosis or service.

PARTS THAT MUST BE REPLACED FOLLOWING A DEPLOYMENT

If the driver airbag is deployed:
After a Driver airbag has been deployed due to a collision, the following MUST be replaced:
• Driver airbag [AIRBAG,STEERING WHEEL]
• Clockspring
• Steering Column Assembly including Intermediate Shaft/Coupler
• Both front seat belt anchor tensioners
• Both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies
• Both rear outboard seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies (if equipped)
• All other seat belt retractors and buckles in use

If the knee airbag is deployed:
• Knee airbag
• The instrument panel steering column opening cover

If the passenger airbag is deployed:
• Passenger airbag [AIRBAG,INSTRUMENT PNL]
• Passenger Airbag Wiring Harness or Connector (Must use approved wire crimping tool and splices)

If a seat airbag is deployed:
• Seat Airbag [AIRBAG,FRONT SEAT]
• Seat Back Frame
• Seat Back Foam
• Seat Back Trim Cover
• Side impact sensors on the same side of the vehicle as the deployed airbag
• Both front seat belt anchor tensioners
• Both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies
• All other seat belt retractors and buckles in use

If a side curtain airbag is deployed:
• Curtain Airbag Assembly [AIRBAG,ROOF]
• Headliner
• Upper A, B, and C-pillar trim on the same side of the vehicle as the deployed airbag
• Side impact sensors on the same side of the vehicle as the deployed airbag
• Both front seat belt anchor tensioners
• Both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies
• All other seat belt retractors and buckles in use

If a seat belt tensioner is deployed • The seat belt retractor and anchor tensioners are deployed in conjunction with the front airbags. All seat belt tensioners must be replaced if any airbag in the vehicle except the driver KAB has been deployed.

PARTS THAT MUST BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF DAMAGED

Following ANY major vehicle impact damage in the vicinity of an impact sensor or the ORC • It is critical that the mounting surfaces and mounting brackets for the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), front impact sensors and side impact sensors located within the proximity of the impact damage be closely inspected and restored to their original conditions.
[MODULE,AIRBAG CONTROL; AIRBAG SENSOR,FRONT; AIRBAG SENSOR,FRT DOOR; AIRBAG SENSOR,SIDE]

• Lower anchors and tether for children (LATCH) and upper tether anchors (if equipped)
• Inspect all Trim Panels
• Occupant Restraint Controller and mounting location

If the driver airbag is deployed:
• Front impact sensors
• Steering Wheel

If the knee airbag is deployed:
• Instrument panel

When Side Curtain Airbag has deployed:
• The deploy brackets on the B-pillar
• The deploy brackets on the C-pillar

All other vehicle components should be closely inspected following any supplemental restraint component deployment, but are to be replaced only as required by the extent of the visible damage incurred.

There are two methods by which an airbag or seat belt tensioner may be connected to the vehicle electrical system.
1) The first method involves a short pigtail harness and connector insulator that are integral to the airbag or tensioner unit and are replaced as a unit with the service replacement airbag or seat belt tensioner.
2) The second method involves a wire harness takeout and connector insulator that are connected directly to the air bag or tensioner initiator or squib. The heat created by the initiator during an airbag or tensioner deployment will cause collateral damage to the connected wiring (squib circuits) and connector insulators. Therefore, these direct-connect type take outs and connector insulators must be repaired following an airbag or seat belt tensioner deployment.
