SRS Warning Light Does Not Come ON








SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM: SRS Warning Light does not Come ON

SRS Warning Light does not Come ON

DESCRIPTION

The SRS warning light is located on the combination meter.
When the SRS is normal, the SRS warning light comes on for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from OFF to ON, and then goes off automatically.
If there is a malfunction in the SRS, the SRS warning light comes on to inform the driver of a problem.
When terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 are connected, the DTC is displayed by blinking of the SRS warning light.
The SRS is equipped with a voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) in the center airbag sensor in case the source voltage drops.
When the battery voltage drops, the voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) functions to increase the voltage of the SRS to normal voltage.
A malfunction in this circuit is not recorded in the center airbag sensor. The SRS warning light automatically goes off when the source voltage returns to normal.
The signal to illuminate the SRS warning light is transmitted from the center airbag sensor to the combination meter through the CAN communication system.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK BATTERY
(a) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






NG -- CHECK AND REPLACE BATTERY OR CHARGING SYSTEM
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK CONNECTOR
(a) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the combination meter.
OK:
The connectors are properly connected.
NG -- CONNECT CONNECTOR PROPERLY
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SOURCE VOLTAGE OF COMBINATION METER)




(a) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Disconnect the connector from the combination meter.
(d) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
(e) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(f) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT
(a) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor.
(d) Connect the connector to the combination meter.
(e) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
(f) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(g) Check the SRS warning light condition.
OK:
After the primary check period, SRS warning light goes off for approximately 10 seconds and remains on.
HINT: The primary check period is approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON.

NG -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER
OK -- REPLACE CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
