Driver's Seat Position Sensor Operation Check




Driver's Seat Position Sensor Operation Check

Check the driver's seat position sensor after driver's seat position sensor replacement.

1. Make sure the driver's seat is all the way forward.

2. Make sure the ignition switch is in LOCK (0).

3. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A).

4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

5. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the SRS unit. If it does not communicate, troubleshoot the DLC circuit:
- R18A1 engine Testing and Inspection

- K20Z3 engine Testing and Inspection

6. From the HDS Main Menu, select SRS, then PARAMETER INFORMATION. In the PARAMETER INFORMATION Menu, select Buckle Switch, Seat Position Sensor.






7. Using a piece of tape (A), mark a line on the seat's outer cover (B) where the front riser cover meets the seat riser (C). The driver's seat position sensor should read NEAR.

8. Move the seat back in small increments (about 5 mm, 0.2 in) until the driver's seat position sensor reads NOT NEAR. The seat should be about 25 mm (1 in) from the front.
NOTE:

- It takes a few seconds for the HDS to display changes, so wait about 5 seconds between each movement.

- If the driver's seat position sensor data does not work as described above, check the driver's seat position sensor for damage, and replace parts as needed.

9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

10. Disconnect the HDS from the DLC.
