DISABLE PROCEDURE AND TIME (Always Check Service Manual)

1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable
2. On vehicles equipped with the optional Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) system, a technician trained in proper HEV service safety procedures must also remove the high voltage service disconnect from the high voltage battery pack.
3. Wait two minutes for the system reserve capacitor to discharge before servicing any airbag components

PARTS THAT MUST BE REPLACED FOLLOWING A DEPLOYMENT

SERVICE AFTER A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT DEPLOYMENT:

DRIVER AIRBAG:
After a Driver airbag has been deployed due to a collision, the following MUST be replaced:
• Driver airbag [AIRBAG,STEERING WHEEL]
• Clockspring assembly
• Seat belt tensioners

PASSENGER AIRBAG:
After a Passenger Airbag has been deployed due to a collision, the following MUST be replaced:
• Passenger airbag [AIRBAG,INSTRUMENT PNL] and Passenger airbag door (The passenger airbag includes the airbag door)
• Seat belt tensioners

CURTAIN AIRBAG:
After a Curtain Airbag has been deployed due to a collision, the following MUST be replaced:
• Curtain Airbag Assembly [AIRBAG,ROOF]
• Headliner
• Upper A, B, C, and D-pillar trim

SEAT BELTS AND TENSIONERS:
The seat belt tensioners are deployed by the same signal that deploys the driver and passenger airbags and must also be replaced if either front airbag has been deployed:
• Seat belt tensioners
• Any damaged restraint system part

PARTS THAT MUST BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF DAMAGED

• If the driver airbag has been deployed, the steering column must be inspected
• The seat belt tensioners must be inspected if either side curtain airbag has been deployed
• On vehicles with an optional sunroof, the sunroof drain tubes and hoses must be closely inspected following a side curtain airbag deployment.
• It is also critical that the mounting surfaces and mounting brackets for the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), side impact sensors, and front impact sensors be closely inspected and restored to their original conditions following any vehicle impact damage. [MODULE,AIRBAG CONTROL; AIRBAG SENSOR,INTERIOR; AIRBAG SENSOR,FRONT]
• All other vehicle components should be closely inspected following any supplemental restraint 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. 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 unit. The
second method involves a wire harness takeout and connector insulator (squib circuits) that are connected directly to the air bag or tensioner initiator. The heat created by the initiator during an airbag or tensioner deployment will cause collateral damage to a directly connected wire harness take out and connector insulator. Therefore, these direct-connect type take outs and connector insulators must be repaired following an airbag or seat belt tensioner deployment.
• Any damaged restraint system part
