    CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. A01NIJSE01

      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 front passenger airbag assembly and center airbag sensor assembly. Also check that the connectors that link the instrument panel wire and instrument panel wire assembly are properly connected.

      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 passenger airbag assembly and center airbag sensor assembly. Also disconnect the instrument panel wire from the instrument panel wire assembly.

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

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

    6. Check that the instrument panel wire assembly connector (on the front passenger airbag assembly side) is not damaged.

      OK
      The lock button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.

    7. Check that the short springs for the instrument panel wire and instrument panel wire assembly with the activation prevention mechanism are not deformed or damaged.

    CHECK FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SQUIB 2ND STEP)


    1. A01NL0AE05

      Connect the instrument panel wire to the instrument panel wire assembly and center airbag sensor assembly.

    2. Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector E (black connector).

      CAUTION:

      Never connect the tester to the front passenger airbag assembly (front passenger side squib 2nd step) 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.
