or deployment for conditions less severe than
intended.
The “SRS “ warning lamp is the key to driver
notification of SRS malfunctions. For proper lamp
operation, refer to the “SRS Diagnostic System
Check” in this section.
Air Bag Assemblies

The air bag assembly consists of an inflatable air bag
assembly and an inflator. When the vehicle is in a
frontal crash of sufficient force the SRS control unit
causes current flow through the deployment loops.
Current passing through the inflator ignites the
material in the air bag assembly. The gas produced
from this reaction rapidly inflates the air bag assembly.
There is a shorting clip on the driver air bag assembly
connector which connects the SRS coil assembly. The
shorting clip shorts across the driver air bag assembly
circuits when the driver air bag assembly connector is
disconnected.
The circuit to the driver air bag assembly is shorted in
this way to help prevent unwanted deployment of the
air bag when servicing the driver air bag assembly,
the steering column or other SRS components.
RUW79ASH000101
SRS Coil Assembly

The SRS coil assembly consists of two current
carrying coils. This is attached to the steering column
and allows rotation of the steering wheel while
maintaining continuous contact of the driver
deployment loop to the driver air bag assembly.
There is a shorting clip on the yellow connector near
the base of steering column which connects the SRS
coil to the SRS wiring harness.
The shorting clip shorts to the SRS coil and driver air
bag assembly when the yellow connector is
disconnected. The circuit to the driver air bag
assembly is shorted in this way to help prevent
unwanted deployment of the air bag when servicing
the steering column or other SRS components.
RTW79ASH001001
There is a shorting clip on the passenger air bag

assembly connector which connects to the SRS
harness. The shorting clip shorts across the
passenger air bag assembly circuit when the
passenger air bag assembly connector is
disconnected. The circuit to the passenger air bag
assembly is shorted in this way to help prevent
unwanted deployment of the air bag when servicing
the passenger air bag assembly, the instrument panel
or other SRS components.

Air Bag Assembly Handling /

Shipping / Scrapping
Live (Undeployed) Air Bag Assembly
Special care is necessary when handling and storing
a live (undeployed) air bag assembly. The rapid gas
generation produced during deployment of the air bag
could cause the air bag assembly, or an object in front
of the air bag assembly, to be thrown through the air
in the unlikely event of an accidental deployment.

Deployed Air Bag Assembly (Driver Side)
You should wear gloves and safety glasses. After the
air bag assembly has been deployed, the surface of
the air bag may contain a powdery residue. This
powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to
lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by-products of the
chemical reaction. Sodium hydroxide dust (similar to
lye soap) is produced as a by-product of the
deployment reaction. The sodium hydroxide then
quickly reacts with atmospheric moisture and is
converted to sodium carbonate and sodium
bicarbonate (baking soda). Therefore, it is unlikely that
sodium hydroxide will be present.

Deployment outside the vehicle is proper when the

36 through 37. If the air bag assembly deployed,
proceed to step 35.
35. With both air bags deployed, the vehicle may be
scrapped in the same manner as a non–SRS
equipped vehicle.
NOTE: The remaining steps are to be followed in the
unlikely event that the air bag assembly did not deploy
after following these procedures.
36. Remove the undeployed air bag assembly (s) from
the vehicle. For driver air bag assembly refer to
“Driver Air Bag Assembly Removal“ in this
manual. For passenger air bag assembly, refer to
“Passenger Air Bag Assembly Removal” in this
manual.

upon which it rests.
Deployed Air Bag Assembly Handling

Put on a pair of shop gloves and safety glasses to
protect your hands and eyes from possible irritation
and heat when handling the deployed air bag
assembly.
After the air bag assembly has been deployed, the
surface of the air bag may contain a powdery residue.
This powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to
lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by-products of the
chemical reaction. Sodium hydroxide dust (similar to
lye soap) is produced as a by product of the
deployment reaction. The sodium hydroxide then
quickly reacts with atmospheric moisture and is
converted to sodium carbonate and sodium
bicarbonate (baking soda). Therefore, it is unlikely
that sodium hydroxide will be present after
deployment.

CAUTION: Refer to “SRS control unit Replacement
Guidelines” below for important information on
SRS control unit replacement in both deployment

Inspect the SRS coil assembly wiring and the steering

wheel for any sign of scorching, melting, or damage
due to excessive heat. If the coil assembly wire or

steering column and wheel must be dimensionally
checked to determine if they are damaged. Refer to
“steering wheel” in this manual.
Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. This does
not include remanufactured parts purchased from an
authorized ISUZU Retailer; they may be used for SRS
repairs.
Do not attempt to repair the SRS control unit, the SRS
harness, the SRS coil assembly, the air bag
assembly, the steering wheel, or the steering column.
Service of these items is replacement only. Verify

1. The “SRS” warning lamp should flash seven times
after the ignition is first turned “ON”.
2. After the “SRS” warning lamp flashes seven times, it
should turn to “LOCK”
3. This test checks for the proper operation of the
“Serial Data” line. This test will also determine
whether history diagnostic trouble codes are stored
and, if so, identify them.
4. Improper operation of the “SRS” warning lamp is
indicated. This test differentiates between ‘a
warning lamp stays “ON” condition’ and ‘a warning
lamp does not come “ON” condition’.
5. This test checks for proper operation of the “Serial
