SRS – Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring52B-30
INSPECTION
AIR BAG MODULE CHECK
If any improper part is found during the following inspection,
replace the air bag modules with a new one.
Dispose the old one according to the specified procedure.
(Refer to P.52B-32.)
Caution
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the
air bag modules (squib) even if you are using the specified
tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester,
accidental air bags deployment will result in serious
personal injury.
1. Check pad cover for dents, cracks or deformation.
2. Check connectors for damage, terminals for deformation,
and harness for binds.
3. Check air bag inflator case for dents, cracks or
deformation.
4. Install the air bag module to steering wheel to check
fit or alignment with the wheel.
Caution
If dents, cracks, deformation, or rust are discovered in
the air bag module, replace it with a new one.
Dispose of the old one according to the specified
procedure. (Refer to P.52B-32.)
CLOCK SPRING CHECK
If, as result of following checks, even one abnormal point
is discovered, replace the clock spring with a new one.
1. Check connectors and protective tube for damage, and
terminals for deformation.
2. Visually check the case for damage.

3. Check that there is continuity between terminal (3) of
the clock spring No.1 connector and the No. 2 connector.
4. Joint the No.3 connector and No.4 connector of the clock
spring to connector No.6 and connector No.4 respectively,
of the SRS check harness.
NOTE
When joining SRS check harness connector No.4 align
its white paint with the hollow portion of the No.4 connector
of the clock spring.
5. Check for continuity between terminal 22 and terminal
25, and terminal 23 and terminal 24, of SRS Check
Harness connector No. 5 using a digital multi-meter.

3. Peform the following procedure to deploy each air bag
module.

(1) Remove the steering column cover lower.
(2) Remove the connection between the clock spring
2-pin connector (red) and the body wiring harness
connector.
NOTE
If the clock spring connector is disconnected from
the body wiring harness, both electrodes of the clock
spring connector will be automatically shorted to
prevent unintended deployment of the air bag due
to static electricity, etc.
(3) Connect two wires, each six meters or longer, to the
two leads of SRS air bag adapter harness A and
cover the connections with insulation tape. The other
ends of the two wires should be connected to each
other (short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected
deployment of the air bag.
(4) Connect the clock spring or air bag module (front
passenger’s side) 2-pin connector (red) to SRS air
bag adapter harness A and pass the deployment
wires out of the vehicle.
(5) Shut all the doors with their window glasses closed
and cover the vehicle with a body cover to suppress
explosion noise leaks as much as possible.
Caution
Be sure to wrap the vehicle entirely in a body cover,
otherwise damaged glass panes could break into
fragments, bringing about a very dangerous situation.
(6) At a location as far away from the vehicle as possible,
disconnect the two connected wires from each other,
and connect them to the two terminals of the battery
(which has been removed from the vehicle) to deploy
the air bag.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS
Inspection Procedure 1
Key hole illumination lamp remains illuminated.
Probable cause
The cause is probably a harness short or a defective ETACS-ECU or buzzer ECU.
Malfunction of harness wire

Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

Malfunction of buzzer ECU
Disconnect the ignition key cylinder illumination lamp connector
B-84 and measure the continuity:

Between 4 and body earth
OK:ConductingNGCheck the harness wire between the ignition key cylinder illumination
lamp and junction block, and repair if necessary.
OK
Replace the ETACS-ECU or buzzer ECU.
Inspection Procedure 2
Even if driver’s side door is opened, key hole illumination
lamp does not illuminate.
Probable cause
The cause is probably a defective key hole illumination lamp circuit system, or a
defective driver’s side door switch input circuit system if the ignition key reminder
warning buzzer is also faulty.
Malfunction of driver’s side door switch

Malfunction of bulb

Malfunction of connector

Malfunction of harness wire

Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL – Ignition Switch54-8
Inspection Procedure 3
While key hole illumination lamp is illuminated, ignition
key is turned to the ON position but key hole illumination
lamp does not switch off. (However, it switch off after 15
seconds.)
Probable cause
While the key reminder warning buzzer is sounding, the
ignition key is turned to the ON position but the sound
dose not stop. (However, it stops when the driver’s side
door is closed.)
The cause is probably a malfunction of the ignition switch input circuit, ETACS-ECU
or buzzer ECU. Furthermore, if there is a malfunction of a multipurpose fuse, the
cause may also be a short circuit in a harness.
