FOR SIDE COLLISION

=NHRS0033S08

To repair the SRS for a side collision, perform the following steps.
When the side air bag is activated in the side collision:
1) Replace the following component:
−

All parts of seatback (including seatback frame) with side air bag module (on the side on which side air
bag is activated)

−

Diagnosis sensor unit

−

Satellite sensor

2) 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).

3) Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-II or “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to “SRS Operation Check”

for details (RS-41). Ensure entire SRS operation properly.

When SRS is not activated in the side collision or when only one air bag module is activated in a col-
lision.
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) Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-II or “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to “SRS Operation Check”

for details (RS-41). Ensure entire SRS operation properly.

Only one front air bag my inflate in a crash, depending on the crash severity and whether the front occupants
are belted or unbelted. This does not indicate improper performance of the system. Conduct self-diagnosis to
make sure the entire SRS system operates properly.

Side air bags module
(LH or RH)

REPLACE all parts of
seat back with
deployed side air bag
module.

1. Check for visible signs of damage (dents, tears, deformation) of the seat back

on the collision side.

2. If damaged—REPLACE the damaged seat parts with new bolts and remove

the side air bag module.

3. Check for visible signs of damaged (tesrs etc.) of the side air bag module.
4. Check harness and connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities.
5. If no damaged 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 disposal.

LH or RH side air bag
(Satellite) sensor

REPLACE the satel-
lite sensor on the col-
lision side with new
nuts coated with
bonding agent.
(Repair the center
pillar inner, etc. before
installing new one if
damaged.)

1. Remove the LH or RH side air bag (Satellite) sensor on the collision side.

Check harness connectors for damage, terminals for deformation, and harness
for binding.

2. Check for visible signs of damage (dents, cracks, deformation) of the satellite

sensor.

3. Install the LH or RH side air bag (Satellite) sensor to check fit.
4. If no damage is found, reinstall the LH or RH side air bag (Satellite) sensor

with new nuts coated with bonding agent.

5. If damaged—REPLACE the LH or RH side air bag (Satellite) sensor with new

nuts coated with bonding agent.

Diagnosis sensor unit

REPLACE the diag-
nosis sensor unit with
the new bolts.

1. Check case and bracket for dents, cracks or deformation.
2. Check connectors for damage, and terminals for deformation.
3. If no damage is found, reinstall the diagnosis sensor unit with new bolts and

ground bolt.

4. If damaged—REPLACE. Install the diagnosis sensor unit with new bolts and

ground bolt.
