SRS wiring can be identified by special yellow outer covering Observe the instructions described in this section.

• Never attempt to modify, splice, or repair SRS wiring. If there is an open or damage in SRS wiring, replace the harness.

• Be sure to install the harness wires so that they are not pinched, or interfere with other parts.

• Make sure all SRS ground locations are clean, and grounds are securely fastened for optimum metal-to-metal contact. Poor grounding can cause intermittent problems that are difficult to diagnose.
