2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: What are the essential steps to inspect the Air Bag system after a collision on 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder?

  A: A thorough inspection of supplemental restraint systems requires a beginning investigation of the front passenger Air Bag assembly. The diagnostic system should be checked on vehicles without collisions while systematically checking their front passenger Air Bag assembly for cuts and small cracks and any presence of marked discoloration. A diagnostic check and visual assessment of cutting and cracking in the wire harnesses along with instrument panel deformities and cracks constitute essential steps for vehicles that experienced an undeployed Air Bag collision. The instrument panel and reinforcement require replacement when experiencing any damage instead of repair. When a deployed Air Bag vehicle requires examination perform standard diagnostic assessments on the instrument panel while noting all connector issues. All steps in the proper front passenger Air Bag assembly removal and installation process should be executed precisely. Drivers must assess both the steering wheel pad along with the spiral cable for any damage and monitor that no installation-related interference appears when these elements are installed. Among all components of the SRS wire harness that connects to the instrument panel wire harness assembly techs should inspect the system for breaks and connector damage. Any defective SRS wire harness components need to be substituted for entirely new parts while replacing the entire assembly when the wire harness itself proves damaged. Changing the Air Bag sensor assembly becomes necessary when it gets deployed or if it shows malfunctioning or the technician has dropped it. Before moving on to the front Air Bag sensor check both its diagnostic system and for any physical damage especially bracket deformation along with connector issues. Any detected faults or sensor deployment must result in the replacement. The correct installation and removal procedures must always be executed in the complete scope of these inspections and replacement operations.
