AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-3
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
With the air bag system which includes air bags for both the driver's
and passenger's sides as well as the seat belt pretensioners (if
equipped), the sag of the seat belt is taken up, the driver air bag (in-
flator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
and the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the
instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat in occurrence
of a front collision with an impact larger than a certain set value to
supplement protection offered by the driver and front passenger
seat belts.
The air bag system is designed to activate only in severe frontal col-
lisions. It is not designed to activate in rear impacts, side impacts,
rollovers, or minor frontal collisions, since it would offer no protec-
tion in those types of accidents.

TABLE D ± SDM CANNOT COMMUNICATE THROUGH THE SERIAL DATA CIRCUIT
(Page 2 of 2)
STEPACTIONYESNO
21) Check if communication is possible by
trying communication with other
controller (ECM (or PCM), ICM or ABS
controller).
2) Is it possible to communicate with other
controller?Go to step 3.Repair open in common
section of serial data circuit
(ªW/Bº wire circuit) used by
all controllers or short to
ground or power circuit
which has occurred some-
where in serial data circuit
(ªW/Bº wire circuit).
31) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect
SDM and ªLamp, DLC and Monitor
Coupler Groundº (ªEº) connector.
2) Check proper connection at ªW/Bº wire
terminal for DLC in ªEº connector.
3) If OK, then check resistance between
ªW/Bº wire terminal in ªEº connector and
ªA4º terminal of SDM connector.
4) Is resistance 1 or less?Substitute a known-good
SDM and recheck.Repair high resistance or
open in ªW/Bº wire circuit
(in air bag harness).

NOTE:
Upon completion of inspection and repair work, perform following items.
1) Reconnect all air bag system components, ensure all components are properly mounted.
2) Repeat ªAir Bag Diagnostic System Check Flow Tableº, referring to p.10B-11 to confirm that the trouble
has been corrected.
