DTC Summaries
Electromechanical Airbag SRS: XK8 1997 – 2000 MY
DTCs are stored in the diagnostic module nonvolatile memory and can be accessed only through the DLC
(diagnostic link connector) using PDU.
CAUTION: Measuring the resistance of airbag circuits may cause airbag deployment. Refer to
the service literature for safe testing procedures. Observe all safety precautions when diagnosing
or repairing airbag SRS systems.
