Diag. Code 22Airbag Warning Light System Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The airbag warning light is located on the combination meter.
When the airbag system is normal, the airbag warning light lights up for\
approx. 6 seconds after the
ignition switch is turned from LOCK position to ACC or ON position, and then turns off automatically.
If there is a malfunction in the airbag system, the airbag warning light\
lights up to inform the driver of
the abnormality.
When terminals Tc and E of the TDCL are connected, the diagnostic code is displayed by t\
he blinking
of the airbag warning light.
The airbag warning light circuit is equipped with an electrical connecti\
on check mechanism which
detects when the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly is not p\
roperly connected.
If the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly is not properly co\
nnected, the airbag warning
light will not light up.
Diagnostic code 22 is recorded when a malfunction occurs in the airbag w\
arning light system.
If an OPEN malfunction occurs in the airbag warning light system, the ai\
rbag warning light does not
light up, so that until the malfunction is repaired, the diagnostic code\
s (including code 22) cannot be
confirmed.
Code No.Diagnosis

Repair.
Repair airbag warning light circuit
(See page BE±150).
Check terminal LA of center

electrical connection check
mechanism. If normal, replace
center airbag sensor assembly.
Using simulation method,
reproduce malfunction symptoms
(See page IN±20).
Check harness between ECU ±B fuse and
airbag warning light, and ECU±B fuse and
center airbag sensor assembly. From the results of the above inspection,
the malfunctioning part can now be
considered normal. To make sure of this,
use the simulation method to check.
Check ECU ±B fuse.
DIAGNOSTIC CHART
Troubleshooting for this system is different for when the airbag warning light does not light up and for
when diagnostic code 22 is output. Confirm the problem symptoms first before\
selecting the appropriate
troubleshooting procedure.
HINT: If airbag warning light does not light up, perform the following troub\
