DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
(1) Check clock spring
CAUTION
If it is not handled properly, the airbag assembly may be triggered and deployed, leading to serious injury to a
person. Therefore, prior to handling, read the service cautions carefully.
See service cautions for SRS.
 Do the related parts of the clock spring work normal? (Are the pins correctly correlated? There should
be no unnecessary short or open circuit, etc). If possible, use a new clock spring to replace the present
one.
Normal: continue with next step.
Abnormal: replace the clock spring.
See SRS-Clock Spring, Removal & Installation.
