B: ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC
When the airbag system is in functioning condition, the
airbag warning light will remain on for 8 seconds and go out
when the ignition switch is set to ON.
If there is any malfunction, the airbag warning light will
either stay on or off continuously. In such cases, perform
on-board diagnostic in accordance with the specified pro-
cedure to determine trouble codes.
1) Turn ignition switch ON (with engine OFF).
2) Connect DIAG. terminal

1to No. 1 terminal of diagno-
sis connector

2located below lower cover.
3) Check in accordance with the trouble code indicated by
the AIRBAG warning light, and record the trouble codes.
4) Turn the ignition switch “OFF” and remove the DIAG.
terminal from No.1 terminal of diagnosis connector.
B5M0116B
C: CLEAR MEMORY
After eliminating problem as per trouble code, clear
memory as follows:
Make sure ignition switch is ON (and engine off). Connect
one DIAG. terminal

1on diagnosis connector
2terminal
No. 1.
While warning light is flashing, connect the other DIAG.
terminal

3on terminal No. 2 for at least three seconds.
After memory is cleared, normal warning light flashing rate
resumes. (Warning light flashes every 0.6 seconds ON-
OFF operation.) Memory cannot be cleared if any problem
exists.
After clear memory and then DIAG. terminals

E: DIAGNOSTICS PROCEDURE
Airbag warning light stays on after 8 seconds.
1) Perform on-board diagnostic.
2) Are trouble codes 2, 4, 12, 13, 22, 23, 24 or 32 indicated?
Record trouble codes.
3) If“NO”, proceed with diagnostics and repair according to trouble code indicated then perform step 29).
4) If“YES”, proceed by turning ignition switch“OFF”, disconnect battery ground cable, and wait 20 seconds. If codes 12 or 13 are
indicated proceed to step 5). If codes 12 or 13 are not indicated proceed to step 6).
5) Remove driver side airbag module and connect test harness C
connector (1C) to (AB7).
Connect airbag resistor to test harness C connector (3C). Pro-
ceed to step 19).
