AIRBAG SYSTEM Trouble in Passenger Airbag ON/OFF Indicator

DESCRIPTION

This circuit detects the airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly status.

The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator comes on to inform the instrument panel passenger airbag assembly and lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag assembly status (activated or deactivated).

Tech Tips

Approximately 6 seconds after the power switch is turned on (IG), the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator will indicate ON/OFF depending on the conditions listed below.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

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

Tech Tips

Terminals K51-11 (MSW+) and K51-12 (MSW-) of the instrument panel wire in this circuit have an activation prevention mechanism.

This mechanism can be used to check for an open circuit in the wire harness. In case of other checks (check for short, short to ground or short to B+), this mechanism should be released.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT


    1. Turn the power switch on (IG), and check the SRS warning light condition.

      OK
      After the primary check period, the SRS warning light goes off.

      Tech Tips


      • If the SRS warning light is on when this malfunction occurs, a DTC is stored. Troubleshoot for the stored DTC.

      • The primary check period is approximately 6 seconds after the power switch is turned on (IG).

  2. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

      CAUTION:

      Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

      Tech Tips

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

    4. Disconnect the connectors from the airbag sensor assembly and airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly.

    5. Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

    6. Check that the short spring for the instrument panel wire connector with the activation prevention mechanism is not deformed or damaged.

      OK
      The short spring is not deformed or damaged.
