W/Harness Inspection





Terminal and Connector Inspection

1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals.Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check shorting bar/shorting bar release pin and connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration or damage.
3. Has a problem been found?
YES
1) Repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
1) Go to "Squib Circuit Inspection" procedure.

Squib Circuit Inspection

1. Ignition "OFF".
2. Disconnect (-) terminal cable from battery and wait for 1 minute or more.
3. Disconnect DBPT module and connect the dummy (0957A-38200) and dummy adapter (0957A-1C000) to main harness connector.

CAUTION:
If dummy and dummy adaptor are not able to be prepared, use a known-good DBPT or 2 Ohms resistor.


4. Connect (-) terminal cable to battery and Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF" and wait for 30 seconds or more.
5. Connect scantool to Data Link Connector (DLC) and clear DTC with scantool and diagnose again.




6. Is DTC present problem?
YES
1) Go to "Main harness circuit inspection" procedure.
NO
1) Substitute a known-good DBPT assembly, and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace DBPT and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

Main harness Circuit Inspection

1. Ignition "OFF".
2. Disconnect the battery (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait at least one minute.
3. Disconnect DBPT connector and SRSCM main harness connector.
4. Measure resistance between terminal "2" and "1" of the DBPT harness connector.
A. Specification : approx. 1 Ohm below




5. Is the measured resistance within specification?
YES
1) Substitute a known-good SRSCM, and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace SRSCM and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
1) Substitute the SRS main harness and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace SRS main harness and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
