STEP 2. Check the passenger's air bag module circuit at
the SRS-ECU connector E-08.
(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector E-08.

DANGER

Unclip passenger’s air bag module connector D-11.To
prevents the air bag from deploying unintentionally,
disconnect the passenger’s air bag module connec-
tor D-11 to short the squib circuit.

(2) Disconnect the passenger's air bag module connector D-11.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front
side directly as the connector contact pressure may be
weakened.
(3) Check for continuity between E-08 harness connector

terminals 9, 10 and body ground.
There should be open circuit.

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC 65 sets, replace
the SRS-ECU. (Refer to

P.52Ba-31

.) Then go to Step

4.

NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the harness wires for short circuit to
ground between SRS-ECU connector E-08 (terminal No.9
and 10) and passenger's air bag module connector D-11
(terminal No.1 and 2).
Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector E-

08 (terminal No.9 and 10) and passenger's air bag
module connector D-11 (terminal No.1 and 2) in good
condition?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector E-08 and passenger's air bag module
connector D-11. Then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC 65 set?

YES : Return to Step 1.
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

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DIAGNOSIS

52Bb-96

CIRCUIT 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.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance
between the input terminals of the driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner (squib).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HITS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Short to the power supply in the driver's seat belt

pretensioner (squib) harness

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-ll)

• MB991865: Dummy resister

• MB991866: Resister harness

STEP 1. Check the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect the driver's seat belt pretensioner connector F-

27.

(3) Connect special tool MB991865 to special tool 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) Insert special tool MB991866 into the harness side

connector by backprobing.

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

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC 66 set?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Replace the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner. (Refer to

P.52Ba-44

.) Then go to Step 4.
