STEP 7. Check the harness wires between SRS-ECU
connector E-08 (terminal No.13) and junction block
connector D-209 (terminal No.10).
Q: Are harness wires between SRS-ECU connector E-08

(terminal No.13) and junction block connector D-209
(terminal No.10) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector E-08 and junction block connector D-209.
Then go to Step 8.

STEP 8. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC 42 set?

YES : Replace the SRS-ECU. Refer to

P.52Ba-31

.

NO : The procedure is complete. (If no malfunctions are not

found in all steps, an intermittent malfunction is
suspected. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Power for the SRS warning light is supplied from

the ignition switch (IG1) circuit.

• The SRS warning light illuminates when the igni-

tion switch is turned to the "ON" position and
goes out after approximately seven seconds if
there is not a malfunction in the SRS system.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
This DTC is set when an open circuit is detected for
a continuous period of five seconds while the SRS-
ECU is monitoring the SRS warning light and the
light is OFF. (transistor OFF.) However, if the vehicle
condition returns to normal, DTC 43 will be automati-
cally erased, and the SRS warning light will go out.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Blown bulb

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

• Malfunction of the combination meter

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-ll)

STEP 1. Check the SRS warning light.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(3) Disconnected the SRS-ECU connector E-08.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
Q: Does the warning light illuminate?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC 43 sets, replace
the SRS-ECU. (Refer to

STEP 2. Check the ground line at the SRS-ECU connector
E-08.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector E-08.
(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.

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 continuity between terminal 7 and ground.

It should be less than 2 ohms.

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Then go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Check the SRS warning light bulb.
Q: Has the SRS warning light bulb blown?

YES : Replace the SRS warning light bulb. Then go to Step

6.

NO : Go to Step 4.
