Fig. 81: Measuring Resistance Between SRS Unit Connector B (28P) Terminal 3 And 4

Is the resistance as specified?

YES -Faulty SRS unit or poor connection at SRS unit connector B (28P) and the SRS unit. Check the
connection; if the connection is OK, replace the SRS unit (see SRS UNIT REPLACEMENT ).

NO -Short in the floor wire harness; replace the floor wire harness.

DTC 22-8X ("X" CAN BE 0 THRU 9 OR A THRU F): SHORT TO POWER IN FRONT
PASSENGER'S SEAT BELT TENSIONER

Special Tools Required



SRS inflator simulator 07SAZ-TB4011A



SRS simulator lead K 070AZ-SNAA200

1. Clear the DTC memory (see CLEAR THE DTC MEMORY WITH THE HDS ).

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and check that the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and then

goes off.

Does the SRS indicator stay on, and is DTC 22-8x indicated?

YES -Go to step 3.

NO -Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures (see
TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITTENT FAILURES ). If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot
the DTC.

3. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, and wait for 3 minutes.

4. Disconnect the floor wire harness 4P connector (A) from the front passenger's seat belt tensioner.
