Connecting
To reconnect, hold the pawl-side connector, and press on the back of the sleeve-side connector in the direction shown in illustration. As the two connector halves are pressed together, the sleeve (A) is pushed back by the pawl (B). Do not touch the sleeve.
Scheme 16
To release the lock, pull the spring-loaded sleeve (A) toward the stop (B) while holding the opposite half of the connector. Then pull the connector halves apart. Be sure to pull on the sleeve and not on the connector half.
Scheme 17
Hold both connector halves, and press them firmly together until the projection (A) of the sleeve-side connector clicks.

SRS Short Canceller 070AZ-SAA0100
Note. To prevent damage to the connector cavity, insert an SRS short canceller straight into the cavity from the terminal side. Before installing an SRS short canceller, wash it with electrical contact cleaner, then dry it with compress air. Do not use an SRS short canceller if it is damaged. Make sure to remove an SRS short canceller before reconnecting the SRS unit connector. Some systems store data in memory that is lost when the battery is disconnected. Before disconnecting the battery, refer to Battery Terminal Disconnection and Reconnection (see USING THE GR8 BATTERY DIAGNOSTIC STATION ).
When SRS unit connectors A (28P), B (28P), or C (16P) is disconnected, a short circuit is automatically created in the connector to prevent accidental deployment of an airbag or tensioner. The circuit may need to be opened when diagnosing the system. Insert an SRS short canceller (T/N 070AZ-SAA0100) in the specified cavities when necessary to keep the circuit open for diagnosis.
Scheme 19
Terminal numbers are shown from the wire side of the female terminals. Insert the SRS short canceller(s) into the cavities on the terminal side of the connector.
