If continuity is not as specified, check the bulb or replace the
switch.
(b) Inspect the differential lock warning buzzer.
(1) Remove the combination meter, then remove the
differential lock warning buzzer.
(2) Taking care to match the polarity of the buzzer, ap-
ply battery positive voltage to the terminals of the
buzzer and check that the buzzer sounds.
(c) Inspect the differential lock indicator switch continuity.

Inspect the differential lock control solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the connector from the solenoid No.1
and No.2.
(2) Check continuity to each port when battery positive
voltage is applied and not applied to the connector
terminals of the solenoid No.1 and No.2.

4. INSPECT TRANSFER VACUUM ACTUATOR
(a) Vacuum Tank:
Inspect the transfer vacuum tank.
(1) Disconnect the solenoid hose No.0, No.2 and No.3
from the solenoid.
(2) Fill in the No.3 hose with a plug.
(3) Check that the indicator needle remains steady
when a vacuum of 500 mmHg (19.685 in.Hg) is ap-
plied to the hose No.0.
Standard:
Indicator falls 45 mmHg (1.772 in.Hg) or less during 15
seconds.
(b) Diaphragm (Lock Side):
Inspect the transfer vacuum tank.
(1) Disconnect the solenoid hose No.1 and No.2 from
the solenoid.
(2) Check that the indicator needle remains steady
when a vacuum of 500 mmHg (19.685 in.Hg) is ap-
plied to the hose No.1.
Standard:
Indicator falls 45 mmHg (1.772 in.Hg) or less during 15
seconds.

1. AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WHEN SCRAPPING VE-
HICLE
HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Check functioning of the SST.
CAUTION:
When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST:
SRS Airbag Deployment Tool.
SST 09082−00700
(1) Connect the SST to battery.
Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery posi-
tive (+) terminal and the black clip to the battery neg-
ative (−) terminal.
HINT:
Do not connect the yellow connector which will be connected
with the supplemental restraint system.
(2) Check functioning of the SST.
Press the SST activation switch, and confirm the
LED of the SST activation switch lights up.
CAUTION:
If the LED lights up when the activation switch is not being
pressed, SST malfunction is probable, so definitely do not
use the SST.
(b) Install the SST.
CAUTION:
Check that there is no looseness in the steering wheel and
steering wheel pad.
(1) Remove the steering column lower cover.
(2) Disconnect the airbag connector of the spiral cable.
