INSPECTION
DRIVER AIRBAG(DAB) If any improper parts are found during the following inspection, replace the airbag module with a new one.
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag module (squib) even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental airbag deployment will result in serious personal injury.
1. | Check pad cover for dents, cracks or deformities.
2. | Check the airbag module for denting, cracking or deformation.
3. | Check hooks and connectors for damage, terminals for deformities, and harness for binds.
4. | Check airbag inflator case for dents, cracks or deformities. [DEPOWERED] [ADVANCED]
5. | Install the airbag module to the steering wheel to check for fit or alignment with the wheel.
CLOCKSPRING
