The SRS lndicator Stays On When ln "SCS"
Menu Method
NOTE:. lf you cannot retrieve DTCSwith the PGM Tester
using the SRS menu method. retrieve the flash codeswith the Tester in SCS mode {see page 23-24|,.. A new SRS unit must sense the entire system is OK
before completing its initial self-test. The most
common cause of an incomplete self-test is the
failure to replace all deployed parts after a collision,
in particular, seat belt tensioners and seat belt buckletenstoners.. An incomplete self-test prevents the PGM Tester fromretrieving DTCS, although flash codes are available in
the Tester's SCS mode.
1 . Erase the DTC memory using the MES connector(see page 23-26).
Does the SRS indicator go off while you are
erasing the DTC memory?
YES-Go to step 42.
NO Go to step 2.
Check the No. '13 { 10A) fuse in the under-dash
fuse/relay box.

YES--Go to step 19.
NO Go to step 3.
Replacethe No. 13 (10A) fuse.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and wait for 30
seconds. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
Check rhe No. 13 (10A) fuse.

9. Disconnect the front passenger's airbag 4P
connector (see step 3 on page 23,21).
10. Disconnect both seat belt tensioner 2P connectors(see step 5 on page 23-221.
'11. DisconnectSRS unitconnectorA{18P)fromthe
SRS unit (see step 7 on page 23-22],.
'12. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
13. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and wait for 30
seconds. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
14. Checkthe No. 13 ('10A) fuse.
ls the f use OK?
YES-Short to ground in the SRS unit; replace the
SRS unit (see page 23-122).a

Component Replacement/lnspection After Deployment
NOTE: Before doing any SRS repairs. use the PGM
Tester SRS menu method to check for DTCS; refer to the
DTC Troubleshooting Index for the less obvious
deployed parts (seat beit tensioners, front sensors, side
airbag sensors, etc.)
After a collision where the seat belt tensioners
deployed, replace these items:' Seat belt tensioners. Seat belt buckle tensioners. SRS unit. Front impact sensors
After a collision where the front airbag(s) deployed.
replace these items:. SRS unit. Deployed airbag(s). Seat belt tensioners. Seat belt buckle tensioners. Front impact sensors
After a collision where the side airbag{s) deployed,
replace these items:. SRS unit. Deployed side airbag(s). Side impact senso(s)for the side(s) that deployed
During the repair process, inspect these areas:
. lnspect allthe SRS wire harnesses. Replace, don't
repair, any damaged harnesses.. Inspectthecable reelfor heatdamage. lf there is any
damage, replace the cable reel.
Afterthe vehicle is completely repaired, turn the
ignition switch ON (ll). lf the SRS indicator comes on for
about 6 seconds and then goes off, the SRS airbag
system is OK. lf the indicator does not function properly,
use the PGM Tester SRS Menu Method to read the DTC
(see page 23-23). lf this doesn't retrieve any codes, use
the Tester's SCS menu method (see page 23-24). lf you
still cannot retrieve a code, go to SRS Indicator Circuit
Troubleshooting.
