AIRBAG SYSTEM SRS Warning Light Remains ON

DESCRIPTION

The SRS warning light is located in the combination meter assembly.

When the SRS is normal, the SRS warning light comes on for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from off to ON, and then goes off automatically.

If there is a malfunction in the SRS, the SRS warning light comes on to inform the driver of a problem.

When terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 are connected, DTCs are output by the blinking of the SRS warning light.

The SRS is equipped with a voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) in the airbag sensor assembly in case the source voltage drops.

When the battery voltage drops, the voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) functions to increase the voltage of the SRS to normal voltage.

A malfunction in this circuit is not recorded in the airbag sensor assembly. The SRS warning light automatically goes off when the source voltage returns to normal.

The signal to illuminate the SRS warning light is transmitted from the airbag sensor assembly to the combination meter assembly through the CAN communication system.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work Click here.

  • When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

  2. CHECK BATTERY


    1. Measure the voltage of the battery.

      Standard voltage
      11 to 14 V

    NG

    REPLACE OR RECHARGE BATTERY

    OK

  3. CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and combination meter assembly.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

    NG

    CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY

    OK

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SOURCE VOLTAGE OF AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY)

      (to Airbag Sensor Assembly)

      Disconnect the connectors from the airbag sensor assembly.

    2. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    4. Operate all the components of the electrical system (defogger, wipers, headlights, heater blower, etc.).

    5. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      D10-21 (IG2) - D10-25 (E1) Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
      D10-21 (IG2) - D10-26 (E2) Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V

    NG

    REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR

    OK

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SOURCE VOLTAGE OF COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY)

      (to Combination Meter Assembly)

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

    2. Disconnect the D66 connector from the combination meter assembly.

    3. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

    4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    5. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      D66-39 (IG+) - D66-21 (ET) Ignition switch ON 9.5 to 14 V
      D66-40 (B) - D66-21 (ET) Always 11 to 14 V

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  6. CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT (SHORT TO GROUND)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

    3. Connect the connector to the combination meter assembly.

    4. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

    5. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    6. Check the SRS warning light condition.

      OK
      After the primary check period, the SRS warning light goes off for approximately 10 seconds and then remains on.

      Tech Tips

      The primary check period is approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON.
