COLLISION DIAGNOSIS — FOR SIDE COLLISION

BF-6040prose procedure

FOR SIDE COLLISION

To repair the SRS for a side collision, perform the following steps.

When the side air bag is activated in the side collision:

When the side air bag is activated in the side collision

1
Replace the following components: All parts of seat back with side air bag module (on the side on which side air bag is activated); Diagnosis sensor unit; Satellite sensor (on the side on which side air bag is activated).
2
Check the SRS components and the related parts using the table shown below.
3
Replace any SRS components and the related parts showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformation).
4
Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT and "AIR BAG" warning lamp. Refer to "Self-diagnosis" for details. Ensure the entire SRS operates properly.

When SRS is not activated in the side collision:

When SRS is not activated in the side collision

1
Check the SRS components and the related parts using the table shown below: Replace any SRS components and the related parts showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformation).
2

In the case of the side collision

Side collision inspection table

Part	Side air bag is activated	SRS is NOT activated
Side air bag module (LH or RH)	REPLACE all parts of seat back with deployed side air bag module.	1. Check for visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformities) of seat back on the collision side. 2. If damaged—REPLACE the damaged seat parts with new bolts and remove side air bag module. 3. Check for visible signs of damage (tears etc.) of the side air bag module. 4. Check harness and connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities. 5. If no damage is found, reinstall the side air bag module with new torx nuts coated with bonding agent. 6. If damaged—REPLACE the side air bag module with new torx nuts coated with bonding agent. Air bag must be deployed before disposing of it.
Satellite sensor (LH or RH)	REPLACE the satellite sensor on the collision side with new nuts. (Replace the center pillar inner, etc. before installing new one if damaged.)	1. Remove the satellite sensor on the collision side. 2. Check harness connectors for damage, terminals for deformities, and harness for binding. 3. Check the satellite sensor (dents, cracks, deformation) of the satellite sensor to check fit. 4. If no damage is found, reinstall the satellite sensor with new nuts coated with bonding agent. 5. If damaged—REPLACE the satellite sensor with new nuts coated with bonding agent.
Diagnosis sensor unit	REPLACE the diagnosis sensor unit with new bolts.	1. Check case and bracket for dents, cracks or deformities. 2. Check connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities. 3. If no damage is found, reinstall the diagnosis sensor unit with new special bolts and ground bolt coated with bonding agent. 4. If damaged—REPLACE the diagnosis sensor unit with new special bolts and ground bolt coated with bonding agent.
Seat belt pre-tensioner assembly	1. Check if the seat belt can be extended smoothly. If the seat belt cannot be extended smoothly: Check for deformities of the center pillar inner. If the center pillar inner has no damage, REPLACE the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly. 2. Remove the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly on the collision side. 3. Check for visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformities) of the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly. 4. If no damage is found, reinstall the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly with new bolts coated with bonding agent. 5. If damaged—REPLACE the seat belt pre-tensioner assembly with new bolts coated with bonding agent. The seat belt pre-tensioner assembly must be deployed before disposing of it.	—
