255(3) Check the wire harness between the fuse box and the connector of the SRS unit
CAUTION
If it is not handled properly, the airbag assembly may be triggered and deployed, leading to serious injury to a
person. Therefore, prior to handling, read the service cautions carefully. See service cautions for SRS.
1Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2Loosen the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute.
3Remove steering column hood.
4Loosen the connector of the clock spring.
5Remove glove box (along with passenger airbag assembly)
6Loosen passenger airbag assembly connectors.
7Remove left trim plate.
8Loosen all the SRS unit connectors.
9Reconnect the negative (-) terminal cable of the battery and turn ignition switch ON, check whether the
electrical potential between pins 5 and 6 (ground) of the connector of SRS unit is higher than 9V.
Yes: continue with next step.
No: replace the wire harness.
VTurn the ignition switch to LOCK. 11 Loosen the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute. 12 Remove left trim plate. 13 Disconnect the adaptor connector of SRS unit. 14 Reconnect the battery negative (-) terminal cable and turn the ignition switch ON, check whether the
voltage between the corresponding pin of the connector and the pin (ground) is higher than 9V.
Yes: completion of trouble diagnosis.
No: replace the wire harness.

256DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
(1) Check clock spring
CAUTION
If it is not handled properly, the airbag assembly may be triggered and deployed, leading to serious injury to a
person. Therefore, prior to handling, read the service cautions carefully.
See service cautions for SRS.
yDo the related parts of the clock spring work normal? (Are the pins correctly correlated? There should
be no unnecessary short or open circuit, etc). If possible, use a new clock spring to replace the present
one.
Normal: continue with next step.
Abnormal: replace the clock spring.
See SRS-Clock Spring, Removal & Installation.
(2) Ascertain the trouble exists in driver airbag assembly or other parts
1Replace with a new driver airbag assembly.
2Reconnect the negative (-) terminal cable of the battery.
3Turn the ignition switch ON.
4Any DTC displayed? Can it be cleared?
Yes: replace the driver airbag assembly.
See SRS- Driver Airbag Assembly, Removal & Instillation.
No: continue with next step.
(3) Check the connector of clock spring wire harness
1Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2Loosen the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute.
3Remove steering column hood.
4Loosen the connector of the clock spring.
5Are the connectors of the clock spring normal? (Are the pins correctly correlated? There should be no
unnecessary short or open circuit, etc). If possible, use a new clock spring to replace the present one.
Normal: continue with next step.
Abnormal: replace the wire harness.
See SRS-Clock Spring, Removal & Installation.
(4) Check the wire harness between clock spring and SRS ECU
1Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2Loosen the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute.
3Remove glove box (along with passenger airbag assembly).
4Loosen passenger airbag assembly connectors.

2581Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2Loosen the negative terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute.
3Remove the glove box.
4Loosen the passenger airbag assembly connectors.
5Is the connector of the passenger airbag assembly normal?
Normal: [DTC of present trouble]
Continue with next step.
[DTC of past trouble]
Continue with next step.
Abnormal: replace the wire harness.
(3) Ascertain the trouble exists in passenger airbag assembly or other part
1Connect a new assembly to terminals A and B of the connector of passenger airbag assembly.
2Connect the negative (-) terminal cable of the battery.
3Turn the ignition switch ON.
4Any DTC displayed? Can it be cleared?
No: continue with next step.
Yes: replace passenger airbag assembly
See SRS- Passenger Airbag Assembly, Removal & Installation.
(4) Check the wire harness between passenger airbag assembly and SRS ECU
1Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2Loosen the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for over 1 minute.
3Remove steering column hood.
4Loosen the connector of the clock spring.
5Loosen the connectors of driver and passenger airbag assemblies.
6Remove left trim plate.
7Loosen all the SRS unit connectors.
8Check the circuit between the connector terminals of the SRS ECU and that of passenger airbag assembly
and the circuit between the connector terminal of the SRS unit and that of passenger airbag assembly for
the following:
yGround.
yShort circuit with power source.
yOpen circuit.
9Are the above-mentioned wire harnesses normal?
Normal: completion of trouble diagnosis.
Abnormal: replace the related wire harness.
