How to conduct repairs and inspections of the Air Bag system after a collision on 2003 Toyota Corolla?

Question

Accepted Answer

The inspection together with repair work of Air Bag system components becomes vital following any collision event. The instrument panel passenger Air Bag assembly in uncollided vehicles should undergo diagnostic screening and full visual evaluation for any damage indications including minor tears, tiny fractures or tarnishing marks. Motor vehicles with deployed Air Bags need a careful inspection of wire connectors and harnesses along with the instrument panel and reinforcement for deformation or cracking so bad parts should get replaced with new ones. The diagnostic test sequence must be carried out in case an Air Bag deploys while you must also inspect both the wiring harness and connector for damage. When checking the front seat Air Bag assembly it is essential to follow the same assessment protocols depending on collision involvement to identify wire harness breakage as well as cuts and cracks. The horn button assembly needs diagnostic examinations along with visual tests for detecting damage and deformation while ensuring suitable spacing with the steering wheel until replacement of deformed parts is necessary. The Air Bag cables as well as connectors must be inspected to verify the absence of breaks and cracks. All connectors should adhere to standard yellow specifications. The center and side Air Bag sensors present in the Air Bag sensor assembly need inspection before replacing any deployed components. The final inspection checks the front Air Bag sensor as well as seat position Air Bag sensor for damage no matter which Air Bags deployed.
