• Q: How to service and repair the Air Bag Control Module on 2000 Toyota RAV4?

  A: Starting the service and repair of the Air Bag Control Module requires removing the upper console panel, rear console box, console panel garnish, ash receptacle box, heater control panel and center cluster finish panel. Relevant steps start by disconnecting the connector from the Air Bag sensor assembly while maintaining the sensor assembly properly installed. The three screws connecting the Air Bag sensor assembly will be removed easily using a T40 torx wrench (Part No. 09042-00020 or a locally manufactured tool). Avoid reuse of the sensor assembly if it has experienced a collision. Install the sensor by using a T40 torx wrench to attach the three screws at 20 Nm (205 kg.cm, 15 ft.lb) that will connect the Air Bag sensor assembly. After assembly, connect the sensor's connector. It is mandatory to install fresh SRS components while avoiding the utilization and reinstallation of Air Bag sensors which participate in auto accidents or experience sensor repair attempts. The SRS wiring must be positioned in a way that avoids the potential to contact any other parts or get caught during installation. The inspection for sensor assembly loosening must be performed after installation through a gentle shake of the sensor. The installation should conclude with restoring all components which were initially taken away.
