NOTE:
Follow the procedures in numerical order when performing repairs. Confirm whether the repair has been suc-
cessful using air bag warning lamp or CONSULT-II after each repair. If malfunction is still observed, proceed to
the next step. When malfunction has been eliminated, further repair work is not required.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE 3
Final Check of SRS Using CONSULT-II—Diagnosis Mode
Refer to GI-38, "CONSULT-II Start Procedure" .
1. If no DTC is detected on “SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]”, repair of
SRS is completed. Go to step 2.
If any DTC is detected on “SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]”, the mal-
functioning part has not been repaired completely or another
malfunctioning part is being detected. Go to SRS-23, "
DIAG-
NOSTIC PROCEDURE 2" .
2. Touch “ERASE”.
NOTE:
Touch “ERASE” to clear the memory of the malfunction
(“SELF-DIAG [PAST]”).
If the memory of the malfunction in “SELF-DIAG [PAST]” is not
erased, the User mode shows the system malfunction by the
operation of the warning lamp even if the malfunction is repaired
completely.
3. Touch “BACK” key of CONSULT-II to “SELECT DIAG MODE”
screen. Touch “SELF-DIAG [PAST]”.
FRONTAL COLLISION
DETECTION
[B1209]Driver and front passenger air bag modules are deployed. Refer to SRS-54, "COLLISION DIAG-
NOSIS" .
SIDE COLLISION
DETECTION

6. Touch “BACK” key of CONSULT-II until “SELECT SYSTEM”
appears.
7. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn off and disconnect CON-
SULT-II, and both battery cables.
8. Repair the system as outlined by the “Repair order” in “Intermit-
tent Malfunction Diagnostic Code Chart”, that corresponds to the
self-diagnostic result. For replacement procedure of component parts, refer to the Removal and Installa-
tion procedure for the appropriate component.
9. Go to SRS-27, "
