  1. Never attempt to modify, splice, or repair SRS wiring. If there is an open or damage to the SRS wiring, replace the harness.
  2. Be sure to install the harness wires so they do not get pinched or interfere with other parts.
  3. Make sure all SRS ground locations are clean, and the grounds are securely fastened for optimum metal-to-metal contact. Poor grounds can cause intermittent problems that are difficult to diagnose.
  4. Do not use any silicone based cleaners or lubricants on any SRS connectors or terminals.
