2001 SUZUKI GRAND VITARA Ignition switch

AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-11
DTC Check
Using SUZUKI scan tool
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) After setting cartridge to SUZUKI scan tool, connect it to
data link connector (DLC) located on underside of instru-
ment panel at driver’s seat side.
Special tool
(A) : SUZUKI scan tool
3) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
4) Read DTC according to instructions displayed on SUZUKI
scan tool and print it or write it down. Refer to SUZUKI scan
tool operator’s manual for further details.
If communication between scan tool and SDM is not possi-
ble, proceed to Diagnostic Flow Table E (Serial data check
circuit).
5) After completing the check, turn ignition switch to OFF posi-
tion and disconnect SUZUKI scan tool from data link connec-
tor (DLC).
Not using SUZUKI scan tool
1) Check that malfunction indicator lamp (“AIR BAG” warning
lamp) comes ON when ignition switch is turned to ON posi-
tion.
If it does not come “ON”, proceed to Diagnostic Flow Table B
(“AIR BAG” warning lamp circuit).
2) Using service wire, ground diagnosis switch terminal in mon-
itor coupler.
3) Read DTC from flashing pattern of malfunction indicator
lamp (“AIR BAG” warning lamp). (Refer to DTC TABLE.)
If lamp does not indicate DTC, proceed to Diagnostic Flow
Table D (Diagnosis switch terminal circuit check).
4) After completing the check, turn ignition switch to OFF posi-
tion and disconnect service wire from “AIR BAG” monitor
coupler.

Not using SUZUKI scan tool
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position and wait about 6 seconds
or more.
2) Using service wire, repeat shorting and opening between
diagnosis switch terminal on “AIR BAG” monitor coupler and
body ground 5 times at about 1 second intervals.
3) Perform DTC CHECK and confirm that normal DTC (DTC
12) is displayed and not malfunction DTC.
NOTE:
If DTC B1051 or DTC B1071 is stored in SDM, it is not
possible to clear DTC.

NOTE:
When 2 or more codes are indicated, the lowest numbered code will appear first.
Current DTC and history DTC can be identified by lighting and flashing of “AIR BAG” warning lamp
as follows. However, if a multiple number of DTC’s are set or even one of them is a current DTC,
“AIR BAG” 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 SUZUKI scan
tool will make identification possible.)
Current DTC is set.
(Abnormality exists at present.)History DTC is set only.
(Faulty condition occurred once
in the past but normal condition
is restored at present.)

CAUTION:
Be sure to perform AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK before starting diagnosis according to
flow table.
When measurement of resistance or voltage is required in this table, use a tester along with a cor-
rect terminal adapter from special tool (Connector test adapter kit).
When a check for proper connection is required, refer to INTERMITTENT AND POOR CONNEC-
TIONS in this section.
If there is open circuit in the air bag wire harness, connector or terminal is found damaged, replace
the wire harness, connector and terminal as an assembly.
