CAUTION:
• Never use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed in this Ser-
vice Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or harness
connectors.
Never repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged, replace it with a
new one.
Keep ground portion clean.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using air bag warning lamp and/or CONSULT-III.
The user mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system
malfunction through the operation of the air bag warning lamp.
The diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the air bag warning lamp and CONSULT-III are as follows.
HOW TO PERFORM TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR QUICK AND ACCURATE REPAIR
A good understanding of the malfunction conditions can make troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a malfunction. It is important to fully understand the symp-
toms or conditions for a customer complaint.
Information from Customer.
WHAT..... Vehicle model.
WHEN..... Date, Frequency.
WHERE..... Road conditions.
HOW..... Operating conditions, Symptoms.
Preliminary Check.
Check that the following parts are in good order.

Air Bag Warning Lamp DiagnosisINFOID:0000000003843289
SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The reading of these results is accomplished by “User mode” and “Diagnosis mode”.
After a malfunction is repaired, turn ignition switch ON. Diagnosis mode returns to the User mode. At that
time, the self-diagnosis result is cleared.

POWER STEERING FLUID
InspectionINFOID:0000000003826225
FLUID LEVEL
1. Check fluid level with engine stopped.
2. Ensure that fluid level is between MIN and MAX.
3. Fluid levels at HOT and COLD are different. Do not confuse
them.
CAUTION:
The fluid level should not exceed the MAX line. Excessive fluid causes fluid leakage from the
cap.
Never reuse drained power steering fluid.
FLUID LEAKAGE
Check hydraulic connections for fluid leakage, cracks, damage,
looseness, or wear.
1. Run the engine until the fluid temperature reaches 50 to 80°C
(122 to 176°F) in reservoir tank, and keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel several times from full left stop to full right
stop.
3. Hold steering wheel at each lock position for five seconds and
carefully check for fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Never hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that power steer-
ing oil pump assembly may be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loosen flare nut and then retighten. Do not overtighten con-
nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer to ST-32, "
Inspection".
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid leaked from steering gear.
AIR BLEEDING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
If air bleeding is not complete, the following symptoms can be observed.
Bubbles are created in reservoir tank.
Clicking noise can be heard from oil pump.
Excessive buzzing in the oil pump.
NOTE:
Fluid noise may occur in the steering gear or oil pump. This does not affect performance or durability of the
system.
1. Turn steering wheel several times from full left stop to full right stop with engine off.
CAUTION:
Fill reservoir tank with a sufficient amount of fluid so that fluid level is not below the MIN line while
turning steering wheel.
2. Start the engine and hold steering wheel at each lock position for 3 second at idle to check for fluid leak-
age.HOT (A) : Fluid temperature 50 – 80°C (122 – 176°F)
COLD (B) : Fluid temperature 0 – 30°C (32 – 86°F)
Recommended fluid : Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids
and Lubricants".
Fluid capacity : Refer to ST-37, "
General
Specifications".
