DTC 2-1 and DTC 2-2 - Wathout Front Passenger's Airbag
CAUTION: Whenever the ignition switch is ON {lll. or
has been turned OFF tor less than three minutes, be
caretul not to bump the SRS unit; the aidag could acci-dentally deploy and causs damage or iniuries.
Try to reproduc€ the SRS indicator light:1. Erase the DTC memory {see page 24-15r.2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and check thatthe SRS indicator light comes on lor about six seconds and ooes off.SRS UNIT

CAUTION: Whenever the ignition switch is ON (lll, ot
has been turned OFF for less than three minutes, be
careful not to bump thc SRS unit; the ailbag could acci-
dentally deploy and cause damage or iniuries.
Try to reproduce the SRS indicator light:
1. Erase the DTC memory tsee page 24 15).
2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and check that the SRS indi-
cator light comes on for about six seconds and goes off

3. Check the resistance between the A and B terminals of
the dummy resistor. There should be 1-5 - 2.5 O.
Check for a short to another wile or decrea36d r6istance in
the SRS main harness:1. Disconnect the battery negative cable, then d'sconnect
the positive cable, and wait for three m inutes
2. Disconnect the driver's airbag 2P connector from the
cable reel 2P connector (see page 24-l l)
3. Disconnect the SRS main harness 18P connector from
the sRs unit.NOTE: Do not connect the dummy resistor to the SRS

How To Use This Manual
The next few pages describe how this manual is organized. They also
explain what kind of information the manual contains, what that
informalion means, and how to use it to troubleshoot electrical problems.
Circuit schematics break the entire electrical system into individual
systems, like the Low Fuel lndicator Light on the nelit page.
Only electrical components that work together are shown together,
so you won't be distracted by unrelated wires.
Explanations of the abbreviations and svmbols used in the schematics
begin on page [Fl. You'll need to know what they mean before you can use
a schematic effectively.
