GENERAL INFORMATION
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT

FUNCTION
<Meter> SRS warning light The SRS-ECU monitors the SRS system and stores data con-
cerning any detected faults in the system. When the ignition
switch is in "ON" position, the SRS warning light, passengers
air bag OFF indicator light and passengers seat belt warning
light should illuminate for about seven seconds and then turn
"OFF." That indicates that the SRS system is in operational
order. If the SRS warning light does any of the following, the
immediate inspection by an authorized dealer is needed:
1. The SRS warning light does not illuminate as described
AC905530 AB above.
2. The SRS warning light stays on for more than seven
seconds.
3. The SRS warning light illuminates while driving.
If a vehicle's SRS warning light is in any of these three condi-
tions, the SRS system must be inspected, diagnosed and ser-
viced in accordance with this manual.

WARNING
Do not repair, splice, or modify the SRS
wiring (except for specific repairs to the
instrument panel wiring harness and the
floor wiring harness shown on P.52B-24):
replace the wiring if necessary, after read-
ing and following all precautions and pro-
cedures in this manual.
Do not use an analog ohmmeter to check
the SRS wiring or components; use only
the special tools (refer to P.52B-356) and
a digital multi-meter (refer to P.52B-357).
CAUTION
Improper services cause the system to be inop-
erative. Do not disassemble or tamper with the
SRS components to prevent the serious injury.

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
M1524000301975
DANGER
In order to avoid injury to yourself or others from
accidental deployment of the air bag during servic-
ing, read and carefully follow all the precautions
and procedures described in this manual.
After disconnecting the battery cable, wait 60 sec-
Insulating tape onds or more before proceeding with the following
Battery work. The SRS system is designed to retain
enough voltage to deploy the air bag for a short
time even after the battery has been disconnected,
so serious injury may result from unintended air
bag deployment if work is done on the SRS system
immediately after the battery cables are discon-
Battery cable nected.
AC300580AB
The SRS-ECU adopts the rollover specification
that the curtain airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner
operate at the occurrence of rollover. Therefore, do
not tilt the vehicle to the right and left with the IG
ON or tilt the SRS-ECU to the right and left with the
IG ON and the harness installed.
WARNING
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS
AFTER HANDLING.
Certain components of this vehicle, such as air
bag modules and seat belt pre-tensioners, may
contain perchlorate materials. Special handling
may apply. For additional information, see
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Do not use any electrical test equipment on or near
the SRS components, except those specified on
P.52B-357.
Never Attempt to Repair the Following Compo-
nents: SRS-ECU, Clock Spring, Air Bag Module,
Front impact sensor, Side Impact Sensor, Seat Belt
with Pre-tensioner, Seat slide sensor, Front seat
assembly. If any of these components are diag-
nosed as faulty, they should only be replaced, in
accordance with the INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT
SERVICE procedures in this manual, starting on
P.52B-364.

POST-COLLISION DIAGNOSIS
M1524001102331
To inspect and service the SRS after a collision (whether or not
the air bags have deployed), perform the following steps.
SRS-ECU MEMORY CHECK

Required Special Tool:
MB991824:Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
MB991910:M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with
CAN Communication System)
CAUTION
1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector
(16-pin).
2. Read (and write down) all displayed diagnostic trouble
codes (Refer to P.52B-32).
NOTE: If the battery power supply has been disconnected or
disrupted by the collision, scan tool MB991958 cannot com-
municate with the SRS-ECU. Check the battery, then check
and, if necessary, repair the front wiring harness and the
instrument panel wiring harness before proceeding.
3. Read the data list (fault duration and how many times
memories are erased), using scan tool MB991958 (Refer to
P.52B-354).
4. Erase the diagnostic trouble codes, and then turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
5. Wait for at least one second, and then turn the ignition
switch to the ON position again.
6. After waiting 15 seconds or more, note all displayed
diagnostic trouble codes (Refer to P.52B-27).

WARNING
Never attempt to disassemble or repair the air bag modules or clock spring. If faulty,
replace it.
Do not drop the air bag modules or clock spring or allow contact with water, grease or oil.
Replace it if a dent, crack, deformation or rust is detected.
The air bag modules should be stored on a flat surface with the pad cover facing upward.
Do not place anything on top of it.
Do not expose the air bag modules to temperatures over 93C (200F).
After the air bag deployment, replace the air bag module with a new one. Also, check the
clock spring, and replace with a new part if there is an abnormality.
Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling air bags that have already deployed.
Certain components of this vehicle, such as air bag modules and seat belt pre-tensioners,
may contain perchlorate materials. Special handling may apply. For additional informa-
tion, see www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
An undeployed air bag module should only be disposed of in accordance with the proce-
dures (Refer to P.52B-412).
When removing and installing the front passenger seat, be sure to carry out accuracy
check of the occupant classification sensor after the seat has been installed in the vehicle
(On-Vehicle Service P.52B-364).
After the installation, perform a calibration for the ASC-ECU to learn the steering wheel
sensor neutral point. (Refer to GROUP 35C, On-vehicle Service Steering Wheel Sensor

DANGER
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the
air bag modules (squib), even if you are using the
specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured
with a tester, accidental air bag deployment will
result, and possible serious personal injury.
WARNING
If any component damage is found during the follow-

one. Dispose of the old one according to the specified
procedure (Refer to P.52B-412).
1. Check the pad cover for dents, cracks or deformation.

CAUTION
If the vehicle is to be scrapped or disposed of, deploy
the air bags inside the vehicle.
If the vehicle is still to be used and only the air bag

Since a large amount of smoke is produced when the
air bags are deployed, avoid residential areas when-
ever possible. Also, do not perform the operation near
the smoke detector.
Since there is substantial report when the air bags are

After deployment and operation, the air bag module and seat
belt pre-tensioner should be disposed of in the same manner
as any other scrap parts, adhering to local laws and/or legisla-
tion. Observe the following precautions during air bag or seat
belt pre-tensioner disposal:
1. Immediately after the pre-tensioner deployment, the inflator
is extremely hot. Thus, before handling, leave the inflator for

3. To the deployed pre-tensioner, substances that irritate eyes
and skin may be deposited. Therefore, wear gloves and
protective glasses when handling. When the substance
comes in contact with eyes or skin, flush with a large amount
of water.

bag, and seal the bag for disposal.
