How does the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) function and what precautions should be taken during servicing on 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) on the vehicle incorporates driver Air Bags and front passenger Air Bags together with side Air Bags and curtain shield Air Bags and front seat belt pretensioners. Start any service operations only when you wait for a minimum duration of 90 seconds after engine shutdown and negative (-) battery terminal cable removal. The inspection of malfunction symptoms becomes challenging after disconnecting the battery since DTCs should always be checked first while SRS components must be kept clear of hot air and flames. A post-collision inspection requires examination of the steering pad together with the front passenger Air Bag assembly, center Air Bag sensor assembly, front Air Bag sensor, front seat inner belt assembly, seat position sensor, occupant classification ECU, front seat side Air Bag assembly, side Air Bag sensor, curtain shield Air Bag assembly, rear Air Bag sensor and front seat outer belt assembly. Remove the Air Bag sensor prior to any repair job when likely shock exists, and never incorporate SRS components from different vehicles as new parts must be used for replacement. All SRS components require no disassembly and no self-repair. Part replacement must happen when defects are detected. When checking electrical circuits you should use a volt/ohmmeter with minimum 10 kOhms/V impedance resistance following all instructions that appear on SRS component information labels. The SRS warning light check must be conducted specifically after completing work on SRS components. Keep a record of system contents while detached from the negative terminal cable connection then activate system resets when work concludes. The procedures to initialize particular systems must follow the reconnecting of the negative (-) battery terminal. Prior to substituting and adjusting side Air Bags or curtain shield Air Bags on doors you need to wait for 90 seconds after negative (-) terminal cable separation. Air Bag sensor installation must happen before connector connection and separation and the team must refrain from using sensors that were not properly attached in the vehicle. The SRS connectors with exception to the seat position sensor and occupant classification ECU connectors utilize yellow coloration that comes with gold-plated terminals and safety mechanisms to guard against wiring errors. The process of disconnecting the connectors that belong to steering pad, front passenger Air Bag assembly, curtain shield Air Bag assembly and front seat outer belt assembly begins by first pressing the lock button then raising the connector. Securely push the lock button so it clicks to establish the connection. Connect all components of the front passenger Air Bag assembly front seat side Air Bag assembly and center Air Bag sensor assembly by completing the attachment methods just as with the steering pad assembly. Secure each connector until it locks properly with an audible signal.
