Erasing the DTC Memory
To erase the DTC(s) from the SRS unit, use a Honda
PGM Tester (see the Honda PGM Tester SRS vehicle
System Supplement) or the following procedure.
1. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF.
2. Connect the SCS service connector to the MES con-
nector (2P). Do not use a jumper wire.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
4. The SRS indicator light comes on for about 6 seconds
and goes off. Remove the SCS service connector
from the MES connector (2P) within 4 seconds after
the SRS indicator light went off.
5. The SRS indicator light comes on again. Reconnect
the SCS service connector to the MES connector
(2P) within the 4 seconds after the SRS indicator
light comes on.
6. The SRS indicator light goes off. Remove the SCS
service connector from the MES connector (2P)
within 4 seconds.
7. The SRS indicator light indicates that the memory is
erased by blinking two times.
8. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for 10 sec-
onds.

Troubleshooting Intermittent
Failures
If there was a malfunction, but it doesn't recur, it will be
stored in the memory as an intermittent failure, and the
SRS indicator light comes on.
After checking the DTC, troubleshoot as follows:
1. Read the DTC (see "Reading the DTC").
2. Erase the DTC memory (see "Erasing the DTC
Memory").
3. With the shift lever in neutral, turn the ignition switch
ON (II), and let the engine idle.
4. The SRS indicator light comes on for about 6 sec-
onds and goes off.
5. Shake the wire harness and the connector, take a test
drive (quick acceleration, quick braking, cornering),
and turn the steering wheel fully left and right, and
hold it there for 5 to 10 seconds to find the cause of
the intermittent failure.
If the problem recurs, the SRS indicator light will
stay on.
6. If you can't duplicate the intermittent failure, the sys-
tem is OK at this time.
