FRONT SEATBACK ASSEMBLY WITH SIDE-AIRBAG 
MODULE CHECK

DANGER

Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the 
air bag module (squib) even if you are using the spec-
ified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a 
tester, accidental air bag deployment will result in 
serious personal injury.

WARNING

If any improper part is found during the following 
inspection, replace the front seatback assembly with 
a new one. Dispose of the old one according to the 
specified procedure. (Refer to 

P.52Ba-48

.)

1. Check the air bag module deployment section for dents or 

deformation.

2. Check the connector for damage, the terminals for 

deformation, and the harness for binds.

.

CLOCK SPRING CHECK 
If any malfunction is found in the following inspections, replace 
the clock spring with a new one. 
1. Check the connectors and protective tube for damage, and 

the terminals for deformation. 

2. Visually check the case for damage. 
3. Check to see that there is a change (continuity) between the 

D-206 clock spring connector terminal and D-228 horn 
switch connector.

CAUTION

Do not insert the probe directly to the terminal from the 
front of the connector.
4. Insert special tool MB991222 from behind the airbag module 

connector of the D-229 driver's side.

5. As shown in the Figure, connect the circuit tester to special 

tool MB991222 and check to see that there is a charge 
between the terminals.
