INSPECTION PROCEDURE
| 1. CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT |
Turn the engine switch on (IG), and check the SRS warning light condition.
- HINT:
- 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, SRS warning light goes off.
- HINT:
- The primary check period is approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned on (IG).

| OK | |
| 2. CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS |
Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
Check that the connectors are properly connected to the center airbag sensor assembly and the airbag cut off switch cylinder.
- OK:
- The connectors are properly connected.

| OK | |
| 3. CHECK INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE (OPEN) |
Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor assembly and the airbag cut off switch cylinder.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester connection
Condition
Specified condition
J91-2 (PMC+) -
J91-1 (PMC-)
Always
Below 1 Ω
|
|

|
|
||||
| OK | |
| 6. CHECK INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE (SHORT TO B+) |
Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard voltage:
Tester connection
Condition
Specified condition

| OK | |
| 7. CHECK AIRBAG CUT OFF SWITCH CYLINDER |
Turn the engine switch off.

Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester connection
