    2. Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ω) to connector E (black connector).

      CAUTION:

      Never connect the tester to the instrument panel passenger airbag assembly for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

      Note


      • Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.

      • Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
