INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tip:
  • Perform the simulation method by selecting the "check mode" (signal check) with the intelligent tester (Click here).

  • After selecting the "check mode" (signal check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough road (Click here).

    CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. A017F1FE07

      Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the front seat side airbag assembly (Driver side) and center airbag sensor assembly.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.
      Tip:

      If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.

    4. Disconnect the connectors from the front seat side airbag assembly (Driver side) and center airbag sensor assembly.

    5. Check that the connector terminals are not damaged.

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

    CHECK FRONT SEAT SIDE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (FRONT DRIVER SIDE - SIDE SQUIB)


    1. A017FQ2E02

      Connect the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly.

    2. Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector C.

      CAUTION:

      Never connect the tester to the front seat side airbag assembly (Front driver side - side squib) 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.

      • Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
