cthere are some malfunctions, indicating light will indicate them. If exterior malfunctions are historical,
after they are removed, indicate will disappear.
done displayed or historical malfunction is only set up again by server. Inner malfunction or “impact
record” of safety airbag controller (KD4.1) could not be set up again, in this situation, it is necessary to
change safety airbag controller (KD4.1).
(3) micro controller, independent indicating light illuminates.
Microprocessor having obvious malfunction state could not work, so it could not control the work of indicat-
ing light. In this situation, indicating light will illuminate directly by applicable circuit without considering the
micro-processor, liking that shown in following:
zThe battery providing electricity for safety airbag controller (KD4.1) disables: indicating light illumi-
nates by the automatic light driving function.
zInner working voltage loses: indicating light illuminates usually.
zNew setup caused by the unsuccessful watchdog trigger: indicating light flashes
zMicro-processor does not work: indicating light illuminates usually
zInsert of connecter of safety airbag controller (KD4.1) is wrong: indicating light illuminates usually by
short circuit stick.
Take example to specify diagnostic step:
If finding indicating light of safety airbag illuminates usually, even if it extinguishes at last, you could check
by follow step. First is to check the part happening malfunction with diagnostic tool.
Then make by the checking step for corresponding position.
a. If scan result is inner malfunction or safety airbag has exploded, at this time, change the ECU directly.
b. Malfunction has been removed.

low fixed clamp on helix cable is good, if yellow clamp drops,
please adjust by the requirement on hint card of helix cable,
insure helix cable could turn left and right for 2.5 circles on
its existing fixed position.
(2) If finding following situations, it is necessary to change the
helix cable with new one.
