pretensioner (Refer
to SECTION 10A).
21) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect Special
Tool (B) and SDM.
2) Measure voltage from ªA14º or ªA12º
terminal to body ground.
3) With ignition switch ON, is voltage 1 V or
less?Substitute a known-
good SDM and recheck.DTC44:

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) Clear diagnostic trouble codes (refer to ªDiagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Clearanceº), if any.
3) Repeat ªAir Bag Diagnostic System Check Flow Tableº, referring to p.10B-11 to confirm that the trouble
has been corrected.

CAUTION:
When measurements are requested in this chart use specified digital multimeter with correct terminal
adapter from special tool (Connector test adapter kit).
When a check for proper connection is requested refer to ªIntermittent and Poor Connectionsº in this
section.
When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire harness, connector or terminal is found, replace
wire harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
DTC WILL SET WHEN:
The voltage at the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp circuit terminal ªA5º does not match the commanded state of the warn-
ing lamp driver for specified time.

11) This DTC is set when there is a trouble in
ªAIR BAGº warning lamp circuit. Failure to
properly perform ªAir Bag Diagnostic System
Check Flow Tableº may also result in
misdiagnosis. Therefore, check ªAIR BAGº
warning lamp circuit again according to ªAir

NOTE:
Upon completion of inspection and repair work, perform following items.
1) Reconnect all air bag system components, ensure all components are properly mounted.

An internal SDM fault is detected by SDM.
NOTE:

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
SERVICE AND DIAGNOSIS
WARNING/CAUTION labels are attached on each part of air bag system components (SDM, air bag (inflator) mod-
ules and seat belt pretensioners). Be sure to follow the instructions.
WARNING:
If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, Suzuki recommends that the air
bag system be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system activation.
Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard or any other air bag system components. Modifications
can adversely affect air bag system performance and lead to injury.
Failure to follow procedures could result in possible air bag system activation, personal injury or un-
needed air bag system repairs.
Many of service procedures require disconnection of ªAIR BAGº fuse and air bag (inflator) modules (driver and
passenger) from initiator circuit to avoid an accidental deployment.
Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all components are connected or a diagnostic chart requests
it, as this will set a diagnostic trouble code.
The ªAir Bag Diagnostic System Checkº must be the starting point of any air bag diagnostics. The ªAir Bag Diag-
nostic System Checkº will verify proper ªAIR BAGº warning lamp operation and will lead you to the correct chart
to diagnose any air bag malfunctions. Bypassing these procedures may result in extended diagnostic time, incor-
rect diagnosis, and incorrect parts replacements.
Never use air bag component parts from another vehicle.
If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93C (200F) (for example, during a paint baking process),
remove the air bag system components beforehand to avoid component damage or unintended system activa-
tion.
When servicing, if shocks may be applied (eg., dropped from a height of 90 cm (3 ft) or more) to air bag system
component parts, remove those parts beforehand.
When using electric welding, be sure to disconnect air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner connec-
tors (driver and passenger) respectively.
When applying paint around the air bag system related parts, use care so that the harness or connector will not
be exposed to the paint mist.
Never expose air bag system component parts directly to hot air (drying or baking the vehicle after painting) or
flames.
WARNING:
When performing service on or around air bag system components or air bag wiring, follow the proce-
dures listed in the following pages to temporarily disable the air bag system. Refer to appropriate ser-
vice manual procedures. Failure to follow procedures could result in possible air bag system activa-
tion, personal injury or unneeded air bag system repairs.
