10B-6 AIR BAG SYSTEM
Diagnosis
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
The AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK must always be the starting point of any air bag system diagno-
sis. The AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK checks for proper “AIR BAG” warning lamp operation and
checks for air bag diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using on-board diagnosis function or SUZUKI scan tool.
Use of Special Tool
You should be familiar with the tools listed in this section under the heading SPECIAL TOOLS. You should be
able to measure voltage and resistance. You should be familiar with proper use of a scan tool such as Air Bag
Driver/Passenger Load Tool, Connector Test Adapter Kit and the Digital Multimeter.
Special tool
(A) : 09932-75020 (Connector Test Adapter Kit)
This must be used whenever a diagnostic procedure requests
checking or probing a terminal.
Using the appropriate adapter in the special tool will ensure that
no damage to the terminal will occur from the multimeter probe,
such as spreading or bending.
The adapter will also give an idea of whether contact tension is
sufficient, helping to find an open or intermittent open due to poor
terminal contact. WARNING:
To avoid deployment when troubleshooting the air bag system, do not use electrical test equipment
such as a battery powered or AC powered voltmeter, ohmmeter, etc., or any type of electrical equip-
ment other than that specified in this manual. Do not use a non-powered probe type tester.
Instructions in this manual must be followed carefully, otherwise personal injury may result.

AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-7
Special tool
(B) : 09932-75010 (Air Bag Driver/Passenger Load Tool)
This tool is used only when called for in this section. It is used as
a diagnostic aid and safety device to prevent inadvertent air bag
(inflator) module deployment.
The load tool has three connectors attached to its case which are
electrically functional and serve as resistive load substitutions.
No more than two connectors are used at any time.
One of connectors (“STEERING WHEEL”) is used to substitute
the load of followings.
•Driver air bag (inflator) module when it is connected at the
top of the column to the contact coil assembly.
•Passenger air bag (inflator) module when it is connected to
the air bag harness connector for passenger air bag (inflator)
module.
•Each of driver and passenger seat belt pretensioners when it
is connected to air bag harness connector for driver and pas-
senger seat belt pretensioner (if equipped).
Another connector (“BASE OF COLUMN”) is used to substitute
the load of the driver air bag (inflator) module and the contact coil
assembly when it is connected at the base of the column to the air
bag wire harness.
The third connector (“PASSENGER INFLATOR”) is not used.
By substituting the resistance of the load tool when called for, a
determination can be made as to whether an inflator circuit com-
ponent is causing system malfunction and which component is
causing the malfunction.
The load tool should be used only when specifically called for in
the diagnostic procedures.
1. Connector for contact coil and driver air bag (inflator) module
(Located near the base of the steering column)
2. Connector for driver, passenger air bag (inflator) module and driver and
passenger seat belt pretensioners
3. Not used

10B-8 AIR BAG SYSTEM
Intermittents and Poor Connections
Most intermittents are caused by faulty electrical connections or
wiring. When a check for proper connection is requested in a
diagnostic flow table, perform careful check of suspect circuits for:
•Poor mating of connector halves, or terminals not fully
seated in the connector body (backed out).
•Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. The terminals must be
clean and free of any foreign material which could impede
proper terminal contact.
However, cleaning the terminal with a sand paper or the like
is prohibited.
•Damaged connector body, exposing the terminals to mois-
ture and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper terminal ori-
entation with the component or mating connector.
•Improperly formed or damaged terminals.
Check each connector terminal in problem circuits carefully
to ensure good contact tension by using the corresponding
mating terminal included in the connector test adapter kit
(special tool).
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase contact
tension or replace.
Special tool
(A) : 09932-75020 (Connector Test Adapter Kit)
•Poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor con-
nection by shaking it by hand lightly. If any abnormal condi-
tion is found, change the wire harness assembly or
component parts with new ones.
•Wire insulation which is rubbed through, causing an intermit-
tent short as the bare area touches other wiring or parts of
the vehicle.
•Wire broken inside the insulation. This condition could cause
a continuity check to show a good circuit, but if only 1 or 2
strands of a multi-strand-type wire are intact, resistance
could be far too high.
If any abnormality is found, repair or replace as a wire harness
assembly.

Air Bag Diagnostic System Check
The diagnostic procedures used in this section are designed to find and repair air bag system malfunctions.
To get the best results, it is important to use the diagnostic flow tables and follow the sequence listed below.
1) Perform the AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE.
(The AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE must be the starting point of any air bag sys-
tem diagnosis.
The AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE checks for proper “AIR BAG” warning lamp
operation through “AIR BAG” warning lamp and whether air bag diagnostic trouble codes exist.)
2) Refer to the proper diagnostic table as directed by the AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW
TABLE.
(The AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE will lead you to the correct table to diagnose
any air bag system malfunctions. Bypassing these procedures may result in extended diagnostic time, incor-
rect diagnosis and incorrect parts replacement.)
3) Repeat the AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE after any repair or diagnostic proce-
dures have been performed.
(Performing the AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK FLOW TABLE after all repair or diagnostic pro-
cedures will ensure that the repair has been made correctly and that no other malfunctions exist.)
