(b) Visually check the side airbag pressure sensors for defects if a front door of the vehicle or the area around a front door is damaged.

HINT:

The defects are as follows:

  • Cracks in the sensor housing
  • Dents in the sensor housing
  • Chips in the sensor housing
  • Cracks or other damage to the connector
  • Damage to the waterproof rubber seal

OK:

No defects are found.

If any defects are found, replace the side airbag pressure sensor with a new one.

3. INSPECT SIDE AIRBAG PRESSURE SENSOR (for Vehicle Involved in Collision and Airbag is Deployed)

(a) When airbags have deployed as the result of a collision, be sure to replace all side airbag pressure sensors in the damaged areas (anywhere in need of repair).

(b) Visually check the side airbag pressure sensors in undamaged areas for defects.

HINT:

The defects are as follows:

  • Cracks in the sensor housing
  • Dents in the sensor housing
  • Chips in the sensor housing
  • Cracks or other damage to the connector
  • Damage to the waterproof rubber seal

OK:

No defects are found.

If any defects are found or a side airbag pressure sensor has detected a major collision, replace the side airbag pressure sensor with a new one.
