AIRBAG SYSTEM Trouble in Passenger Airbag ON/OFF Indicator

DESCRIPTION

This circuit detects the airbag cut-off switch status.

The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator comes on to inform the front passenger airbag and front passenger side knee airbag 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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

The F29-11 (MSW+) and F29-12 (MSW-) terminals 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.

      Tech Tips

      If this trouble occurs, the SRS warning light is off. If it is on, a DTC is output. Troubleshoot for the output DTC.

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

      Tech Tips

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


    NG
    OK
  2. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the power switch off.

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

      Note

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

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

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

      Tech Tips

      If the connector is not connected securely, reconnect the connector and proceed to the next inspection.

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

    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.
