DTC 14-3: No Signal from the Front
Passenger's Side lmpact Sensor
SpecialTools Required. SRS inflator simulator 07SAZ-TB401'lA. SRS simulator lead H 07YAZ'S3AA100
1. Erasethe DTC memory (see page 23-26).
2. Tu rn the ignition switch ON (ll), and check that the
SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and
then goes off.
Does the SBS indicator stay on?
YES Go to step 3.
NO Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time.
Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures (see
page 23-26).
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnectthe
battery negative cable, and wait for 3 minutes.
4. Check the connection between the floor wire
harness 2P connector and the front passenger's
side lmpact sensor.
Is the connection OK?
YES-Go to step 5.
NO- Poor contact between the floor wire harness
2P connector and the front passenger's side impact
sensor; replace the front passenger's side impact
sensor and/or the floor harness, as needed.

5.Disconnectthe driver's side airbag and front
passenger's side airbag 2P connectors (see step 4
on page 23-21). Also disconnect both seat belt
buckle tensioner 4P connectors (see step 6 on page
23-22t.
Disconnect the floor wire harness 2P connector {A)
from the front passenger's side impact sensor.

8. Disconnect SRS unit connector B (18P)from the
SRS unit (see step 7 on page 23-221.
9. Check resistance between the No.9 and No. 16
terminals of SRS unit connector B (18P). There
should be 0-1.0 S2.
