Components
On-vehicle inspection
- Check front airbag sensor (vehicle not
involved in collision and airbag not
deployed)
- Perform a diagnostic system check (see page rs-
49).
- Check front airbag sensor (vehicle
involved in collision and airbag has not
deployed)
- Perform a diagnostic system check (see page rs-
49).
- If the front fender of the vehicle or its periphery are
damaged, perform a visual check:
- Check for cracks, dents or chips in the case.
- Check for cracks, dents, chips and scratches in
the connector.
- Check for peeling off of the label or damage to
the serial number.
If any of the defects mentioned above are present,

- Check front airbag sensor (vehicle
involved in collision and airbag has
deployed)
- Replace the front airbag sensor.
Caution:
For removal and installation of the front airbag
sensor, be sure to follow the correct
procedures.
Hint:
If the airbags have deployed, replace the front
airbag sensor on the side in which the collision
occurred. Replace both if necessary.
Removal
Caution:
Be sure to read the precautionary notices concerning the
srs airbag system before servicing it (see page rs-1).
- Disconnect cable from negative battery terminal
Caution:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the
cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to
prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
- Remove radiator support opening cover
- Remove front airbag sensor lh
- Disconnect the sensor connector.
- Remove the bolt and sensor.
- Remove front airbag sensor rh
- Disconnect the sensor connector.
- Remove the bolt and sensor.
Installation
Caution:
Be sure to read the precautionary notices concerning the
srs airbag system before servicing it (see page rs-1).
- Install front airbag sensor lh
- Install the sensor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.0 N*m (92 kgf*cm, 80 in.*Lbf)
Notice:
- If the airbag sensor has been dropped, or
there are any cracks, dents or other defects in
the case or connector, replace it with a new
one.
- When installing the airbag sensor, make sure
that the srs wiring does not interfere with
other parts and is not pinched between other
parts.
- Check that there is no free play in the installation
parts of the sensor.
- Connect the sensor connector.
- Install front airbag sensor rh
- Install the sensor with the bolt.

Inspect refrigerant pressure with
manifold gauge set
This method uses a manifold gauge set to locate
problem areas. Read the manifold gauge pressure
when these conditions are established. Test
conditions:
Temperature at the air inlet is 30 to 35°c (86 to
95°f).
Engine is ...
