Air Bag Module Check

If any component damage is found during the following inspection, replace the air bag module with a new one. Dispose of the old one according to the specified procedure.

CAUTION: Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the air bag modules (squib) even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental air bags deployment will result in serious personal injury.
1. Check pad cover for dents, cracks or deformation.
2. Check connectors for damage, terminals for deformation, and harness for binds.
3. Check air bag inflator case for dents, cracks or deformation.
4. Install the air bag module to steering wheel or dash to check fit and alignment with the wheel.

CAUTION:
If dents, cracks, deformation, or rust are discovered in the air bag module, replace it with a new one.
Dispose of the old one according to the specified procedure.
