DTC31Center Airbag Sensor Assembly Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The center airbag sensor assembly consists of center airbag sensor, safing sensors, ignition control and drive
circuit, diagnosis circuit, etc.
It receives signals from the airbag sensors, judges whether or not the SRS must be deploy, and diagnoses sys-
tem malfunction.
Diagnostic trouble code 31 is recorded when occurrence of a malfunction in the cen\
ter airbag assembly is de-
tected.
DTC No.Trouble Area
