NOTE:
When 2 or more codes are indicated, the lowest numbered code will appear first.
If a code not listed on the table is displayed, then the SDM is faulty.
Current DTC and history DTC can be identified by lighting and flashing of ªAIR BAGº warning lamp as
follows.
Current DTC is set.
(Abnormality exists at present.)History DTC is set only. (Faulty condi-
tion occurred once in the past but nor-
mal condition is restored at present.)

Current DTC is displayed.History DTC is displayed.
However, if a multiple number of DTC's are set an even one of them is a current DTC, ªAIR BAGº warning
lamp remains on after ignition switch is turned ON. Therefore, it is not possible to identify any of them
as to whether it is a current one or a history one. (But use of scan tool (Tech 1) will make identification
possible.)

CAUTION:
When measurements are requested in this chart use specified digital multimeter with correct terminal
adapter from special tool (Connector test adapter kit).
When a check for proper connection is requested refer to ªIntermittent and Poor Connectionsº in this
section.
When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire harness, connector or terminal is found, replace
wire harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
DTC WILL SET WHEN:
The combined resistance of the passenger air bag (inflator) module, harness wiring and connector terminal contact
is above a specified value for specified time.

21) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect SDM.
2) Check proper connection to SDM at
terminals ªA2º and ªA3º.
3) Release shorting bar in SDM connector by
inserting a piece of paper, referring to the
figure below.
4) If OK then measure resistance between ªA2º
and ªA3º terminals with connected Special
Tool (B).
5) Is resistance 2.9 or less?Substitute a known-
good SDM and recheck.Repair high resistance
or open in ªYº or ªY/Rº
wire circuit.
