Ford Mustang (1999-2004) Service Manual: Air Bag Disposal - Passenger, Undeployed, Scrapped Vehicle
Remote Deployment
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module or safety belt retractor/pretensioner assembly. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Carry a live air bag module with the air bag and trim cover or deployment door pointed away from your body. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Remote deployment is to be performed outdoors with all personnel at least 6.1 meters (20 feet) away to ensure personal safety. Due to the loud report which occurs when the air bag is deployed, hearing protection is required.
WARNING: Do not place the driver or passenger air bag module with the trim cover or deployment door facing down, as the forces of the deploying air bag can cause it to ricochet and cause personal injury.
1. Remove the passenger air bag from the vehicle. For additional information, refer to Passenger Air Bag Module in this section.
2. Cut and strip the wires near the passenger air bag electrical connector.
3. Obtain two wires (20 gauge minimum) at least 6.1 meters (20 feet) long and attach one end of each wire to the stripped ends of the passenger air bag module wires.
4. Place the air bag module on a flat surface in an open outdoor area with the deflector can facing downward.
5. Remain at least 6.1 meters (20 feet) away from the air bag module.
6. Deploy the air bag module by touching the other ends of the two wires to the terminals of a 12- volt battery.
7. To allow for cooling, wait at least ten minutes before approaching the deployed air bag.
8. Dispose of the deployed air bag module in the same manner as any other part to be scrapped.
