2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the AVENSIS/ CORONA fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnos-
tic Trouble Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU
memory at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function
is the Input Signal Check which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.
By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the AVENSIS/
CORONA.

Function
Supplemental Restraint System
In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-
nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,
it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting
for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinent
to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic trouble
code check.

– SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMSRS AIRBAG
OPERATION
1. SIDE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
The inflater and bag of the SRS side airbag are stored in the
side airbag assembly and cannot be disassembled. The inflater
contains a squib, igniter charge and gas generant, etc., and in-
flates the bag when instructed by the side airbag sensor assem-
bly.
2. CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
The inflater and bag of the SRS curtain shield airbag are stored
in the curtain shield airbag assembly and cannot be disas-
sembled. The inflater contains a squib, igniter charge and gas
generant, etc., and inflates the bag when instructed by the side
airbag sensor assembly.
3. SRS WARNING LIGHT
The SRS warning light is located on the combination meter. It
goes on to alert the driver of trouble in the system when a mal-
function is detected in the airbag sensor assembly. In normal
operation conditions when the ignition switch is turned to the
ACC or ON position, the light goes on for about 6 seconds and
then goes off.
4. AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The airbag sensor assembly is mounted on the floor inside the
lower center finish panel. The airbag sensor assembly consists
of an airbag sensor, safing sensor, diagnosis circuit ignition
control and drive circuit, etc. It receives signals from the airbag
sensor, front airbag sensor, side airbag sensor and judges
whether the SRS must be activated or not.
5. SIDE AND CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG SENSOR AS-
SEMBLY
The side and curtain shield airbag sensor assembly is mounted
in the LH and RH center pillars. The side airbag sensor assem-
bly consists of a side airbag, sensor, safing sensor and diagno-
sis circuit, etc. It sends signals to the airbag sensor assembly
to judges whether the SRS side airbag must be activated or not.
