DIAGNOSTIC CHART WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)
Step
1 CHECK SIDE AIRBAG MODULE.
1) Turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect
the battery ground cable, and wait more
than 20 seconds.
2) Disconnect the connector (AB26) from the
seat belt pretensioner (RH). <Ref. to AB-
17, REMOVAL, Airbag Control Module.>
3) Disconnect connector (AB25) from (AB24),
and connect connector (1F) in test harness
F to (AB24).
4) Connect air bag resistor to connector (3F)
in test harness F.
5) Connect the battery ground cable, and turn
the ignition switch ON.
Does the airbag warning light operate prop-
erly?
2 CHECK SIDE AIRBAG HARNESS (RH).
1) Turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect
the battery ground cable, and wait more
than 20 seconds.
2) Disconnect airbag resistor from test har-
ness.
3) Disconnect the connector (AB18) from air
bag control module. <Ref. to AB-17,
REMOVAL, Airbag Control Module.>
4) Connect connector (1I) in test harness I2 to
connector (AB18).
5) Measure the resistance between connector
(3I) in test harness I2 and connector (3F) in
test harness F.
Connector & terminal
(3I) No. 7 — (3F) No. 4:
(3I) No. 9 — (3F) No. 3:
Is the measured value less than the speci-
fied value?
3 CHECK SIDE AIRBAG HARNESS (RH).
Measure the resistance of the connector (3F)
in test harness F.
Connector & terminal
(3F) No. 3 — No. 4:
Does the measured value exceed the specified
value?
4 CHECK SIDE AIRBAG HARNESS (RH).
Measure the resistance between connector
(3F) in test harness F and the chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(3F) No. 3 — Chassis ground:
(3F) No. 4 — Chassis ground:
Does the measured value exceed the specified
value?
