DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
1. CHECK DLC3
The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 14230 for communication. The ter-
minal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and
matches the ISO 14230 format.
Terminal No.Connection/Voltage or ResistanceCondition
7Bus Line/Pulse generationDuring Transmission
4Chassis Ground e Body Ground/Below 1 WAlways
16Battery Positive e Body Ground/10 to 14 VAlways
HINT:
If the display shows UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE
when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or
hand±held tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON
and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle
side or tool side.
If communication is normal when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the
original vehicle.
If communication is still not possible when the tool
is connected to another vehicle, the problem is
probably in the tool itself, so consult the Service De-
partment listed in the tool's instruction manual.

7. CHECK PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(b) Check that the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator (ºONº
and ºOFFº) comes on for approximately 4 seconds, then
goes off for approximately 2 seconds.
HINT:
Refer to the table in step 4 regarding the passenger airbag ON/
OFF indicator when the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion and approximately 6 seconds pass.
8. CHECK RSCA OFF INDICATOR
(a) Check that the RSCA OFF indicator is off when turning
the ignition switch to the ON position.
(b) Check that the RSCA OFF indicator comes on when turn-
ing the RSCA OFF switch on (press the switch for approxi-
mately 2 seconds) with the ignition switch on.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position with the
RSCA OFF indicator is on, and then turn the ignition
switch to the ON position. Check that the RSCA OFF indi-
cator is off.
9. RELEASE METHOD OF ACTIVATION PREVENTION MECHANISM
The activation prevention mechanism is built into the connector for the squib circuit of the SRS.
As explained in the troubleshooting section, insert a piece of paper that is the same thickness as the male
terminal between the terminal and the short spring to release it (Refer to the illustrations on the next 3 pages).
CAUTION:
Never release the activation prevention mechanism on the squib connector even when inspecting
with the squib disconnected.
NOTICE:
Do not release the activation prevention mechanism unless specially directed by the trouble-
shooting procedure.
To prevent the terminal and the short spring from being damaged, always use a piece of paper
that is the same thickness as the male terminal.

DTC CHECK / CLEAR
1. CHECK DTC (Using SST check wire)
(a) Check the DTCs (Present trouble code).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and wait
for approximately 60 seconds.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of the
DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
NOTICE:
Connect the terminals to the correct positions to avoid a
malfunction.
(b) Check the DTCs (Past trouble code).
(1) Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of the
DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
NOTICE:
Connect the terminals to the correct positions to avoid a
malfunction.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and wait
for approximately 60 seconds.
(c) Read the DTCs.
Read the blinking patterns of the DTCs. As examples, the
blinking patterns for trouble codes 11 and 31 are shown
in the illustration to the left.
Normal system code (w/o past trouble code)
The light blinks twice per second.
Normal system code (w/ past trouble code)
When the past trouble code is stored in the
airbag sensor assy center, the light blinks
only once per second.
Trouble code
The first blinking indicates the first DTC. The
second blinking occurs after a 1.5±second
pause.
If there are more than 1 code, there will be a 2.5±second pause
between each code. After all codes are shown, there will be a
4.0±second pause, and they all will be repeated.
HINT:
If 2 or more malfunctions are found, the indication begins
with the smallest numbered code.
If DTCs are indicated without connecting the terminals,
proceed to the ºTC terminal circuitº on page DI±1498.

2. CLEAR DTC (Using SST service wire)
Clear the DTCs.
(1) When the ignition switch is turned off, the DTCs are
cleared.
HINT:
Some DTC may not be cleared by turning off the ignition switch.
In this case, proceed to the next procedure.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of the
DLC3, and then turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
SST 09843±18040
(3) Disconnect terminal TC of the DLC3 within 3 to 10
seconds after the DTCs are output, and check if the
SRS warning light comes on after 3 seconds of dis-
connecting.
(4) Within 2 to 4 seconds after the SRS warning light
comes on, connect terminals TC and CG of the
DLC3.
(5) The SRS warning light should go off within 2 to 4 se-
conds after connecting terminals TC and CG of the
DLC3. Then, disconnect terminal TC within 2 to 4
seconds after the SRS warning light goes off.
(6) The SRS warning light comes on again within 2 to
4 seconds after disconnecting terminal TC. Then,
reconnect terminals TC and CG within 2 to 4 se-
conds after the SRS warning light comes on.

CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DTC B1000/31 Airbag Sensor Assembly Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The airbag sensor assembly consists of the airbag sensor, the safing sensor, the drive circuit, the diagnostic
circuit, ignition control, etc.
If the airbag sensor assembly receives signals from the airbag sensor, it determines whether or not the SRS
should be activated.
DTC B1000/31 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the airbag sensor assembly.
