(4) Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
(5) Before repairs, remove the center airbag sensor if
shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during
repairs.
(6) Never disassemble and repair the center airbag
sensor assembly, steering wheel pad in order to re-
use it.
(7) If the center airbag sensor assembly, steering
wheel pad have been dropped, or if there are
cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket
or connector, replace them with new ones.
(8) Do not expose the center airbag sensor assembly,
steering wheel pad directly to hot air or flames.
(9) Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kΩ/V
minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical cir-
cuit.
(10) Information labels are attached to the periphery of
the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
(11) After work on the supplemental restraint system is
completed, check the SRS warning light (See page
DI−365).
(c) FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR
(1) Never reuse the front airbag sensors involved in a
collision that activated the supplemental restraint
system. (Replace both left and right airbag sen-
sors.)
(2) Install the front airbag sensor with the arrow on the
sensor facing toward the front of the vehicle.
The front airbag sensor set bolts have been anti−
rust treated. When the sensor is removed, always
replace the set bolts with new ones.
(3) The front airbag sensor is equipped with an electri-
cal connection check mechanism. Be sure to lock
this mechanism securely when connecting the con-
nector.
(4) If connector is not securely locked, a malfunction
code will be the diagnosis system (See page
RS−2).

3. SYMPTOM SIMULATION
The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when there are no problem symptoms occurring. In such cases,
a thorough customer problem analysis must be carried out, then simulate the same or similar conditions and
environment in which the problem occurred in the customer’s vehicle. No matter how much experience a
technician has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without confirming the problem
symptoms he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guess
somewhere, which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only occurs when the en-
gine is cold, or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during driving, etc., the prob-
lem can never be determined so long as the symptoms are confirmed with the engine hot condition or the
vehicle at a standstill. Since vibration, heat or water penetration (moisture) is likely cause for problem which
is difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation tests introduced here are effective measures in that the ex-
ternal causes are applied to the vehicle in a stopped condition.
Important Points in the Symptom Simulation Test:
In the symptom simulation test, the problem symptoms should of course be confirmed, but the problem area
or parts must also be found out. To do this, narrow down the possible problem circuits according to the symp-
toms before starting this test and connect a tester beforehand. After that, carry out the symptom simulation
test, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective or normal and also confirming the problem symp-
toms at the same time. Refer to the matrix chart of problem symptoms for each system to narrow down the
possible causes of the symptom.

HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated. 2
NOTICE:
(1) Do not heat to more than 60 °C (140 °F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
(2) Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU.
3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
NOTICE:
(1) Never sprinkle water directly into the engine
compartment, but indirectly change the temperature and
humidity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
(2) Never apply water directly onto the electronic
components.
4 OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high−humidity condition. Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
function occurs.ON (Service hint)
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.

2. CONTINUITY CHECK (OPEN CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ECU and sensor
sides.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors.
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire har-
ness vertically and horizontally.
When tester probes are inserted into a connector, insert
the probes from the back. For waterproof connectors in
which the probes cannot be inserted from the back, be
careful not to bend the terminals when inserting the tester
probes.
3. RESISTANCE CHECK (SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors on both ends.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors and body ground. Be sure to carry out
this check on the connectors on both ends.
Resistance: 1 MΩ or higher
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
4. VISUAL CHECK AND CONTACT PRESSURE CHECK
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ends.
(b) Check for rust or foreign material, etc. in the terminals of
the connectors.
(c) Check crimped portions for looseness or damage and
check if the terminals are secured in lock portion.
HINT:
The terminals should not come out when pulled lightly.
(d) Prepare a test male terminal and insert it in the female ter-
minal, then pull it out.
NOTICE:
When testing a gold−plated female terminal, always use a
gold−plated male terminal.
HINT:
When the test terminal is pulled out more easily than others,
there may be poor contact in that section.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
These are maintenance and inspection items which are considered to be the owner’s responsibility.
They can be done by the owner or they can have them done at a service shop.
These items include those which should be checked on a daily basis, those which, in most cases, do not
require (special) tools and those which are considered to be reasonable for the owner to do.
Items and procedures for general maintenance are as follows.
1. GENERAL NOTES
Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner’s manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.
Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.
Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).
Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.
Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. LIGHTS
