Do not use electrical test equipment to check SRS circuit.
1. Check operation of“AIR BAG”warning lamp.
After turning ignition key to“ON”position,“AIR BAG”warning
lamp illuminates. The“AIR BAG”warning lamp will go off after
about 7 seconds if no malfunction is detected. If any of the fol-
lowing“AIR BAG”warning lamp conditions occur, immediately
check the air bag system. Refer to RS-45 for details.
+The“AIR BAG”warning lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned“ON”.
+The“AIR BAG”warning lamp does not go off about 7 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned“ON”.
+The“AIR BAG”warning lamp blinks after about 7 seconds after
the ignition switch is turned“ON”.
2. Visually check SRS components.
1) Diagnosis sensor unit
+Check diagnosis sensor unit and bracket for dents, cracks and

STEERING GEARNLST0024S061. Check rack sliding force on vehicle as follows:
a. Install steering gear onto vehicle, but do not connect tie-rod to
knuckle arm.
b. Connect all piping and fill with steering fluid.
c. Start engine and bleed air completely.
d. Disconnect steering column lower joint from the gear.
e. Keep engine at idle and make sure steering fluid has reached
normal operating temperature.
f. Pull tie-rod slowly to move it from neutral position to±11.5 mm
(±0.453 in) at speed of 3.5 mm (0.138 in)/s. Check that rack
sliding force is within specification.
Average rack sliding force:
