SRS – Troubleshooting52B-14
SRS WARNING LAMP INSPECTION
1. Check to be sure that the SRS warning lamp illuminates
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
2. Check to be sure that it illuminates for approximately
7 seconds and then switches off.
3. If the above is not the cause, inspect the diagnosis codes.
INSPECTION CHART FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS
Get an understanding of the trouble symptoms and check according to the inspection procedure chart.
Trouble symptomInspection procedure No.Reference page
Communication with
MUT-II is not possible.Communication with all systems is not
possible.152B-14
Communication is not possible with
SRS only.252B-15
When the ignition key is turned to “ON” (engine stopped), the
SRS warning lamp does not illuminate.Refer to diagnosis code No.43.52B-12
After the ignition switch is turned to ON, the SRS warning lamp
is still on after approximately 7 seconds have passed.Refer to diagnosis code No.43.52B-12
INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS
Inspection Procedure 1
Communication with MUT-II is not possible. (Communica-
tion with all systems is not possible.)
Probable cause
The cause is probably a power supply system (including earth circuit) of the diagnosis
line.
Malfunction of connectors

Malfunction of wiring harness
Refer to GROUP 13A – Troubleshooting.

SRS – Troubleshooting / SRS Maintenance52B-15
Inspection Procedure 2
Communication with MUT-II is not possible.
(Communication is not possible with SRS only.)
Probable cause
If communication is not possible with the SRS only, the cause is probably an open circuit
in the diagnosis output circuit of the SRS or in the power circuit (including earth circuit).

SRS MAINTENANCE
The SRS must be inspected by an authorized dealer 10 years
after the date of vehicle registration.
SRS WARNING LAMP CHECK
Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position. Does the SRS
warning lamp illuminate for about 7 seconds, turn off and
then remain extinguished for at least 5 seconds? If yes, SRS
system is functioning properly. If no, consult page 52B-6.

SRS – SRS Maintenance52B-18
BODY WIRING HARNESS
* Body wiring harness
NOTE
*: Vehicles with front passenger’s air bag
1. Check connector for poor connection.
2. Check harnesses for binds, connectors for damage, and
terminals for deformation.
REPLACE ANY CONNECTORS OR HARNESS THAT
FAIL THE VISUAL INSPECTION. (Refer to P.52B-3.)
Caution
The SRS may not activate if SRS harnesses or
connectors are damaged or improperly connected,
which could result in serious injury or death to the
vehicle’s driver or front passenger.
POST-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the ignition
key to the “ON” position. Does the SRS warning lamp illuminate
for about 7 seconds, turn off and then remain extinguished
for at least 5 seconds? If yes, SRS system is functioning
properly. If no, consult page 52B-6.

SRS – Post-collision Diagnosis52B-19
POST-COLLISION DIAGNOSIS
To inspect and service the SRS after a collision (whether
or not the air bags have deployed), perform the following
steps.
SRS-ECU MEMORY CHECK
1. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
Caution
Make certain that the ignition switch is OFF when
the MUT-II is connected or disconnected.
2. Read (and write down) all displayed diagnosis codes.
(Refer to P.52B-6.)
NOTE
If the battery power supply has been disconnected or
disrupted by the collision, the MUT-II cannot communicate
with the SRS-ECU. Inspect and, if necessary, repair the
body wiring harness before proceeding further.
3. Read the data list (fault duration and how many times
memories are erased) using the MUT-II.

or more read (and write down) all displayed diagnosis
codes. (Refer to P.52B-6.)

SRS – Post-collision Diagnosis52B-20
REPAIR PROCEDURE
WHEN AIR BAG DEPLOYS IN A COLLISION.
1. Replace the following parts with new ones.

SRS-ECU (Refer to P.52B-24.)

Air bag module (Refer to P.52B-25.)
2. Check the following parts and replace if there are any
malfunctions.

Clock spring (Refer to P.52B-25.)

Steering wheel, steering column and intermediate
joint
(1) Check wiring harness (built into steering wheel)
and connectors for damage, and terminals for
deformation.
(2) Install air bag module to check fit or alignment
with steering wheel.
(3) Check steering wheel for noise, binds or difficult
operation and excessive free play.
3. Check harnesses for binding, connectors for damage,
poor connections, and terminals for deformation.
(Refer to P.52B-18.)
WHEN AIR BAG DOES NOT DEPLOY IN LOW-SPEED
COLLISION.
Check the SRS components. If the SRS components are
showing any visible damage such as dents, cracks, or
deformation, replace them with new ones. Concerning parts
removed for inspection, replacement with new parts and
cautionary points for working, refer to appropriate INDIVIDUAL
COMPONENT SERVICE, P.52B-22.

SRS – Post-collision Diagnosis / Individual Component Service52B-22
Steering wheel, steering column and intermediate joint
1. Check wiring harness (built into steering wheel) and
connectors for damage, and terminals for deformation.
2. Install air bag module to check fit or alignment with steering
wheel.
3. Check steering wheel for noise, binds or difficult operation
and excessive free play.
Harness connector (body wiring harness)
Check harnesses for binding, connectors for damage, poor
connection, and terminals for deformation. (Refer to P.52B-18.)
INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SERVICE
If the SRS components are to be removed or replaced as a result of maintenance, troubleshooting,
etc., follow each procedure (P.52B-24 – P.52B-31)
Caution
1. SRS components should not be subjected to hear over 93C, so remove the SRS-ECU, air
bag module and clock spring before drying or baking the vehicle after painting.
Recheck SRS system operability after re-installing them.
2. If the SRS components are removed for the purpose of check, sheet metal repair, painting,
etc., they should be stored in a clean, dry place until they are reinstalled.

SRS – Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures52B-33
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.
