This document provides precautions and procedures for working on supplemental restraint systems (SRS) in Honda Odyssey vehicles. It identifies the locations of SRS components and instructs technicians to turn off the ignition, disconnect the battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before working on the system. The document emphasizes using only new, undamaged replacement parts and carefully handling airbags to avoid accidental deployment. It also warns against bumping sensors and provides instructions for post-collision component replacement.

PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Please read the following precautions carefully before performing the airbag system service.
Observe the instructions described in this information, or the airbags could accidentally deploy
and cause damage or injuries.
Except when performing electrical inspections, always turn the ignition switch OFF, ground
the SCS line with the HDS to take the PCM out of active status, disconnect the negative
cable from the battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before beginning work.
NOTE: The SRS memory is not erased even if the ignition switch is
turned OFF or the battery cables are disconnected from the

7. Use replacement parts which are manufactured to the same standards and quality as the
original parts. Do not install used SRS parts. Use only new parts when making SRS repairs.
Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it. Do not install any part that shows signs
of being dropped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or deformation.

Before removing any of the SRS parts (including the disconnection of the connectors),
always disconnect the SRS connector.
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If it is not a Honda multimeter, make sure
its output is 10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the lowest value in the ohmmeter
range. A tester with a higher output could cause accidental deployment and possible injury.
Do not put objects on the front passenger's airbag.

8. The original radio and navigation system have a coded theft protection circuit. Be sure to
get the customer's anti-theft codes and write down the radio station and XM channel presets
before disconnecting the battery negative cable. After reconnecting the battery, reset the
power sliding door control unit (see RESETTING THE POWER SLIDING DOOR
CONTROL UNIT ), and reset the power tailgate control unit (see RESETTING THE
POWER TAILGATE CONTROL UNIT ).
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, enter the radio code, the navigation code, then
enter the radio station and XM channel presets; set the clock.
STEERING-RELATED PRECAUTIONS
Cable Reel Alignment
Misalignment of the cable reel could cause an open in the wiring, making the SRS system,
remote steering wheel controls, and the horn inoperative. Center the cable reel (see step 6 in
INSTALLATION ), whenever the following is performed.
- Installation of the steering wheel
- Installation of the cable reel
- Installation of the steering column
- Other steering-related adjustment or installation
Do not disassemble the cable reel.
Do not apply grease to the cable reel.
If the cable reel shows any signs of damage, replace it with a new one. For example, if it
does not rotate smoothly, replace the cable reel.
AIRBAG HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not disassemble an airbag. It has no serviceable parts. Once an airbag has been deployed, it
cannot be repaired or reused.
For temporary storage of an airbag during service, observe the following precautions.
Store the removed airbag with the pad surface up. Never put anything on the airbag.

3 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
During installation or replacement, be careful not to bump (by impact wrench, hammer,
etc.) the area around the SRS unit, front impact sensors, the side impact sensors, rear safing
sensor, or roll rate sensor. The airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or
injury.
