Do not attempt to repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged, replace it with a new one.

Keep ground portion clean.




DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using "AIR BAG" warning lamp, "SEAT BELT" warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II. The reading of these results is accomplished using one of two modes - "User mode" and "Diagnosis mode".

The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system malfunction through the operation of the "AIR BAG" warning lamp and/or "SEAT BELT" warning lamp.

The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.

Diagnosis mode activates only when a malfunction is detected, by pressing the driver's door switch at least 5 times within 7 seconds after turning the ignition ON. SRS will not enter Diagnosis mode, if no malfunction is detected.

From Diagnosis Mode to User Mode
To return to User mode to User mode is required while malfunction is being detected, switch the ignition OFF., then back ON and press the driver's door switch at least 5 times within 7 seconds.

After a malfunction is repaired, switch the ignition OFF for at least one second, then back ON. Diagnosis mode is returned to User mode.
