DRIVER AIR BAG MODULE
• For removing/installing the driver air bag module harnessconnector, insert a thin screwdriver wrapped in tape into
the notch, then lift the lock and remove the harness con-
nector as shown.
• Install the harness connector with the lock raised, and push the lock into the connector as shown.
• After installing the conn ector, check that the lock is
pushed in securely.
3. Insert the driver air bag module onto the st eering wheel and push firmly to snap into place.
4. Check the horn function by pressing at the three locations (1, 2, 3) as shown.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage or pinch the harness while installing.
• After the work is completed, make sure no syst em malfunction is detected by air bag warning
lamp.
• In case a malfunction is detected by the air bag warning lamp, reset by the self-diagnosis func-
tion and delete the memory using CONSULT.
• If a malfunction is still detected after the abo ve operation, perform self-diagnosis to repair mal-
functions. Refer to SRC-17, "SRS Final Check"

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009464484
When the vehicle has reached a speed of 40 km/h (25 MPH) or greater, the BCM receives a signal transmitted
from the tire pressure sensors/transmitters installed in each wheel. If the BCM detects low inflation pressure or
a system malfunction, it sends a signal to the combi nation meter via CAN communication to illuminate the low
tire pressure warning lamp. In addition, a warning message will be displayed in the vehicle information display.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for additional information.
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) has Easy fill ti re alert function to aid in tire inflation. Refer to WT-
9, "Easy Fill Tire Alert Function".
Low Tire Pressure Warning Lamp and Display Indications
Easy Fill Tire Alert FunctionINFOID:0000000009464485
NOTE:
When beginning tire inflation, it takes a few seconds for t he Easy fill tire alert to function. If there is no
response for approximately 15 seconds or more, cancel t he Easy fill tire alert function and move the vehicle
approximately 1 m (3.2 ft) backward or forward to try again.
• The Easy fill tire alert function operates only when t he select lever position is in P-range with the ignition
switch ON.
• This function informs the driver with a visual and audible indication that the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure has been reached.
• The hazard warning lamps blink when the recommended COLD tire pressure has been reached. After the recommended COLD tire
pressure has been reached, the horn sounds once and the hazard
warning lamps stop blinking.
• If the tire pressure value is equal to or greater than 30 kPa (0.31
kg/cm
2, 4 psi) more than the recommended COLD tire pressure,
the hazard warning lamps flash and horn sounds three times.
• To return the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure, deflate
the tire until the horn sounds once and the hazard warning lamps
stop blinking.

CAUTION:
After disconnecting the CONSULT vehicle interface (VI) from the data link connector, the ignition must
be cycled OFF → ON (for at least 5 seconds) → OFF. If this step is not performed, the BCM may not go
to ”sleep mode”, potentiall y causing a discharged battery and a no-start condition.
NOTE:
The Signal Tech II Tool (J-50190) can be used to perform the following functions. Refer to the Signal Tech II
User Guide for additional information.
• Activate and display TPMS transmitter IDs
• Display tire pressure repor ted by the TPMS transmitter
• Read TPMS DTCs
• Register TPMS transmitter IDs

NOTE:
Before performing Self Diagnostic Result, be sure to regi ster the transmitter ID or the actual malfunction may
be different from that displayed on CONSULT.
