SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-135

.

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 ground in the driver's seat belt pre-

tensioner (squib) harness

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness B (Vehicles without

CAN communication system)

• MB991865: Dummy resister

• MB991866: Resister harness

STEP 1. Check the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner. (Using
scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code).
(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 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 67 set?

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

P.52B-229

). Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Check the driver's seat belt pretensioner circuit at
the SRS-ECU connector E-07.
(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector E-07.

(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pretensioner connector F-27.

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-07 harness connector

terminals 29, 30 and body ground.
It should be open circuit.

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC 67 sets, replace
the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-215

). Then go to Step

4.

STEP 3. Check harness wires for short circuit to ground
between SRS-ECU connector E-07 (terminal No.29 and 30)
and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner connector F-27
(terminal No.1 and 2).

NOTE: After inspecting intermediate connector E-19, inspect
the wiring harness. If the intermediate connector E-19 is dam-
aged, repair or replace it (Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Con-
nector Inspection). Then go to Step 4.
Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector

E-07 (terminal No.29 and 30) and driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner connector F-27 (terminal No.1 and 2) in
good condition?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector E-07 and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner
connector F-27. Then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC 67 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

P.00-6

).
