Airbag Control Module -J234-, REMOVING AND INSTALLING: Installing
Risk of injury due to involuntary deployment.
- Pay attention to the safety precautions when working with pyrotechnic components. Refer to SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH PYROTECHNIC COMPONENTS .
- Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example, connecting a connector), the person handling it must "discharge static electricity". For example, this can be done by briefly touching the door striker.
Install in reverse order of removal and note the following:
Make sure the connectors are pushed in all the way and that they engage audibly.
Repairing pyrotechnic components (for example the airbag and seat belt tensioner) incorrectly increases the risk of injuries due to unintentional deployments when the battery is connected.
- The ignition must be on when connecting the battery.
- There must not be anyone in the vehicle interior when connecting the battery.
-- Connect the battery ground cable with the ignition switched on. Refer to BATTERY, DISCONNECTING AND CONNECTING .
Repairing pyrotechnic components (for example the airbag and seat belt tensioner) incorrectly increases the risk of injuries due to unintentional deployments when the ignition is switched on.
- If the ignition is not switched on after the battery is reconnected - >>indicator lamps in the instrument cluster do not light up<< - the ignition (key/button) may only be switched on when the driver seat is positioned all the way back.
Risk of malfunction.
- After every removal and installation of the Airbag Control Module - J234-, the Guided Function "Inertial sensor basic setting" must be performed.
- If the Airbag Control Module -J234- is replaced with a new part, the basic setting is performed when implementing the "15 - Replace airbag control module" program.
- If the Airbag Control Module -J234- is removed and then the same one is reinstalled, perform the "inertial sensor basic setting" as follows:
-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
-- Switch the ignition on.
-- Select and start the Diagnostic operating mode.
-- Select the Test plan tab.
-- Select the Select individual test button and select the following tree structure consecutively:
- Body
- Body Assembly
- 01 - OBD-capable systems
- 15 - Airbag - Airbag Control Module -J234-
- 15 - Airbag, Functions
- 15 - Basic Setting
- 15 - Inertial Sensor Basic Setting
-- Start the selected program and follow the instructions on the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester display.
If the Airbag Indicator Lamp -K75- indicates a fault after installing, check the DTC memory, erase it and check it again using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
