INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips


  • 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.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY (DRIVER SIDE FRONT PRETENSIONER SQUIB)


    1. A003DEEE01

      Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

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

    3. LHD


      1. Disconnect the connector from the front seat outer belt assembly LH.

    4. RHD


      1. Disconnect the connector from the front seat outer belt assembly RH.

    5. Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector "C".

      CAUTION:

      Never connect a tester to the front seat outer belt assembly (Driver side front pretensioner squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

      Note


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

      • Insert the SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
