Summary
"SERVICE BULLETIN - CERTAIN HONDA
VEHICLES OPERATED IN AREAS KNOWN FOR HIGH ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY MAY CONTAIN A FRONT PASSENGERS AIRBAG THAT, OVER TIME, MAY BE AFFECTED BY EXPOSURE TO THE HUMIDITY, WHICH COULD PRODUCE EXCESSIVE INTERNAL PRESSURE UPON DEPLOYMENT. IF AN AFFECTED AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THE INCREASED INTERNAL PRESSURE MAY CAUSE THE INFLATOR CASING TO RUPTURE. METAL FRAGMENTS COULD BE PROPELLED UPWARD TOWARD THE WINDSHIELD, OR DOWNWARD TOWARD THE FRONT PASSENGERS FOOT WELL, POSSIBLY CAUSING AN INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS."

REPAIR PROCEDURE
NOTE:
•
If the VIN status inquiry indicates that the vehicle is subject to any open safety recalls, including a driver's
airbag inflator campaign/recall, make sure to also complete those recall repairs before returning the vehicle
to the customer. If you are unable to complete any open recall, advise the customer of the recall status and
when the recall could be completed.
• Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the audio and navigation system (if applicable), then write down the
frequencies for the radio's preset buttons.
Be careful not to damage any parts when replacing the inflator, and follow the procedure exactly.
•
•
If, before removing the airbag, you suspect that it may be the incorrect airbag for the vehicle or a counterfeit, do not
remove the airbag. Contact your DPSM for assistance.
1.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position and check if the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds, then
turns off.
•
•
If the indicator comes on, then turns off after about 6 seconds, go to step 2.
If the indicator does not come on, or if it stays on, contact your DPSM for assistance
2.
Disconnect the battery negative cable and wait at least 3 minutes before continuing.
3.
Remove the front passenger's airbag by referring to the applicable electronic service manual.
4.
Place the airbag, face-down, on a clean shop towel.
NOTE:
• The orientation of the airbag is critical because if the inflator is installed incorrectly, the harness will be too short
when you reinstall the airbag.
• The brackets between the various models are similar but may differ from the example shown.
Page 5 of 21
5.
Visually inspect the airbag and the inflator for any unusual writing or markings.
•
•
If there is nothing unusual about the airbag or the inflator, go to step 6.
If there are any unusual markings, like an incorrect label or a model year written in marker, the airbag and
inflator may not be the correct airbag and/or inflator for the vehicle or it may be a counterfeit part. For more
information about counterfeit airbags, you can refer to safercar.gov, enter keywords MANAGING
COUNTERFEIT, and select Recommended Dealer Guidance for Managing Counterfeit Air Bags from the
list. If you suspect that the airbag or inflator is counterfeit, do not continue this procedure. Contact your
DPSM for assistance.

6.
Peel the label located inside the inflator box from its backing and attach it to the RO. For the warranty claim to be
paid, the replacement inflator part number that you received must be included in the warranty claim.
NOTE:
• The replacement part number is printed on the top part of the label and the serial number is printed on the
bottom. Make sure you attach the label to the RO and give it to the warranty clerk.
• There may also be a colored sticker located in the kit, ignore it because it is not used.
•
Not all inflator kits have a label included. In those cases, write the serial number and part number from the side
of the inflator box on the RO. The part number always starts with 04 7.

(if applicable), then enter the audio unit presets.
20. Turn the ignition to the ON (II) position and make sure the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds, then turns
off.
21. Do the idle learn procedure (2003-04 CR-V, 2002-04 Odyssey, 2003-04 Pilot).
•
•
Make sure all electrical items (A/C, audio unit, defogger, lights, etc.) are turned off, then start the engine.
Let the engine reach its normal operating temperature (the cooling fans cycle twice; the coolant temperature is
about 194° F).
•
•
Let the engine idle for at least 5 minutes with the throttle fully closed and with all electrical items turned off.
If the cooling fans cycle on while doing an idle learn, add the time the cooling fans are on to the 5 minute idle
learn time.
22. Put the original inflator into the box the new one came in. Make sure there is no other hardware in the box because
if the package rattles, it will not be accepted by the courier.
23. Follow the shipping instructions outlined in PIB A 15-0002 to return the undeployed inflator.
24. Give your warranty clerk the RO that includes the replacement inflator serial number and replacement part number.
For the warranty claim to be paid, the replacement inflator part number must be included in the warranty claim.
