Hi,
I've just inicidently ripped out the SRS connector in my Civic.The small yellow one that is a plug into airbag itself. As a result the two metal connectors (one per cable) are broken. I wonder if someone could help me to answer the following two questions:
1. What is the type of these metal connectors, so I can look for them on the market and just replace.
2. Does it matter the order of these 2 cables to be plugged into the airbag. Both cables are yellow, but does it matter which one is left and which one is right?
Please look into the following pictures:
Picture 1 - shows the broken connectors, the single cyllinder is one of two parts of broken connectors.
Picture 2 - shows the reconstruction of the plug I did, but instead of welding I'm looking for new one.
Picture 3 - shows the similar connectors used in Mazda just for maybe easier identification
Any help or advice is highly appreciated.
Broken connectors that goes into the plug to SRS
My reconstruction of the plug
Connectors seen in youtube, used for SRS in Mazda, quite similar.
Unknown on the connector materials, but any clean well-connected surface should suffice. Gold plated if you're **** about it. It does not matter which wire goes where, it's essentially an explosive fuse and will function regardless of polarity (think model rocket fuse)
I did a write up on dual stage to single stage srs conversion, you can ignore most of it, but notice how I connected my airbag with a quality crimp spade, then soldered the wire onto the spade, then connected the spade and insulated it with quality electrical tape. Works fine for over a year now. https://honda-tech.com/forums/tech-m...s-car-3319604/
