STEP 4. Check a burned-out fuse.
(1) Replace the fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position, wait

for at least one minute and then turn the ignition
switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

(3) Check the fuse.

Q: Is the fuse in good condition?

YES :

This diagnosis is complete.

NO :

Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Resistance measurement at the junction
block connector C-214

(1) Disconnect junction block connector C-214, and

measure at the wiring harness side.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(2) Resistance measurement between terminal 24

and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

Go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Resistance measurement at junction
block connector C-214

(1) Disconnect junction block connector C-214, and

measure at the wiring harness side.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(2) Resistance measurement between terminal 25

and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Check the other circuit, which flows through

fuse number 2.

NO :

Check the harness wire for short circuit
between junction block connector C-214
(terminal No.25) and combination meter
connector C-01 (terminal No.9), and repair if
necessary.

STEP 7. Resistance measurement at the
SRS-ECU connector C-12

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-12, and

measure at the wiring harness side.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(2) Resistance measurement between terminal 16

and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 8.

NO :

Check the harness wire for short circuit
between SRS-ECU connector C-12
(terminal No.16) and junction block
connector C-214 (terminal No.24), and
repair if necessary.

STEP 8. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 41 set?

YES :

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-109

).

NO :

An intermittent malfunction is suspected
(Refer to GROUP 00

− How to Use

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

P.00-5

).

Code No.42: Power supply voltage (IG1 (B) voltage) drops abnormally.

OPERATION

• The SRS-ECU is powered from the ignition

switch (IG1).

• The SRS-ECU power is supplied from two cir-

cuits. Even if one circuit is shut off, the air bag
can inflate.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

This diagnosis code is set if the voltage between the
IG1 terminals (fuse No.3 circuit) and earth is lower
than a predetermined value for a continuous period
of 5 second or more. However, if the system returns
to normal condition, code number 42 will be erased
automatically and the SRS warning lamp will go out.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check junction block fuse number 3.

Q: Is the fuse burned out?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Voltage measurement at SRS-ECU
connector C-12
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-12.

(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) 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.
(5) Voltage measurement between C-12 harness

side connector terminal 13 and body earth.

OK: 9 V or more

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 7.

NO :

Go to Step 3.
