TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-99

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the passenger's air bag module.
(Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Unclip passenger’s air bag module connector

C-09.

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865)

to special tool resistor harness (MB991866).

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(4) Disconnect the passenger's air bag module

connector C-09, and insert special tool
(MB991866) into the harness side connector by
backprobing.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.

(6) Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code 65 set?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Replace the passenger's air bag module
(Refer to

P.52B-179

). Then go to Step 3.

STEP 2. Measure the resistance at the SRS-ECU
connector C-115. (Check whether the diagnosis
code is reset.)

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-115.

CAUTION

To prevents the air bag from deploying
unintentionally, disconnect the passenger’s air
bag module connector C-09 to short the squib
circuit.

(2) Unclip passenger’s air bag module connector

C-09.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(3) Measure the resistance between C-115 harness

side connector terminals 9, 10 and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal.

YES :

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code
65 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-178

). Then go to Step 3 .

NO :

Repair the harness wires between
SRS-ECU connector C-115 (terminal No.9
and 10) and passenger's air bag module
connector C-09 (terminal No.1 and 2). Then
go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 65 set?

YES :

Return to Step 1.

NO :

The procedure is complete (If no
malfunctions are found in all steps, an
intermittent malfunction is suspected. Refer
to GROUP 00

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-101

Code No.66: Driver's seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) system (short-circuited to the power supply)
<L.H. drive vehicles>

OPERATION
The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by
detecting signals from the front impact sensors and
the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the impact is
over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an
ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing
G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code is set if the driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner wire(s) are short-circuited to the power
supply.

PROBABLE CAUSES

•

Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

•

Short to the power supply in the driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner (squib) harness

•

Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner. (Check whether the diagnosis
code is reset.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner

connector D-29. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to
pull out the locking button at the harness side
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865)

to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).

(4) Connect special tool (MB991884) to the D-29

harness side connector.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6) Erase diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code 66 set?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Replace the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner
(Refer to

P.52B-188

). Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Measure the voltage at the SRS-ECU
connector C-114.

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-114.
(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner

connector D-29. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to
pull out the locking button at the harness side
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(4) Measure the voltage between C-114 harness

side connector terminals 29, 30 and body earth.

OK: 0 V

Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified

range?
YES :

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code
65 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-178

). Then go to Step 4 .

NO :

Go to Step 3.
