DTC22SRS Warning Light System Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The SRS warning light is located on the combination meter.
When the supplemental restraint system is normal, the SRS warning light ligh\
ts up for approx. 6 seconds after
the ignition switch is turned from LOCK position to ACC or ON position, and then turn\
s off automatically. If there
is a malfunction in the supplemental restraint system, the SRS warning l\
ight lights up to inform the driver of the
abnormality.
When terminals Tc and E
1 of the DLC2 are connected, the diagnostic trouble code is displayed by the blinking
of the SRS warning light.
The SRS warning light circuit is equipped with an electrical connection che\
ck mechanism which detects when
the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly is not properly connecte\
d.
If the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly is not properly conn\
ected, the SRS warning light will not
light up.
Diagnostic trouble code 22 is recorded when a malfunction occurs in the SRS warnin\
g light system. If an OPEN
malfunction occurs in the SRS warning light system, the SRS warning light does not light up, so that until the
malfunction is repaired, the diagnostic trouble codes (including 22) c\
annot be confirmed.

HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
The Engine Control System broadly consists of the sensors, ECU and actuator\
s. The ECU receives signals from
various sensors, judges the operating conditions and determines the opti\
mum injection duration, timing, ignition
timing and idle speed.
In general, the Engine Control System is considered to be a very intricate\
system to troubleshoot. But, the fact
is that if you proceed to inspect the circuit one by one following the p\
rocedures directed in this manual, trouble-
shooting of this system is not complex.
This section explains the most ideal method of troubleshooting and tells how\
to carry out the necessary repairs.
[1] CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSISUsing the customer problem analysis check sheet for reference, ask the c\
ustomer in as much details as
possible about the problem.
[2] CHECK AND CLEAR DIAGNOSTIC CODE (PRECHECK) Before confirming the problem symptom, first check the diagnostic code and mak\
e a note of any malfunc-
tion code which is output, then clear the code.
HINT: Output of the malfunction code indicates that there is a malfunction in\
the circuit indicated. However,
it does not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring or occur\
red in the past and returned to normal.
In order to determine this, the problem symptoms should be confirmed in 4 \
first and the diagnostic code
be rechecked in [6].
Accordingly, if troubleshooting is begun based on the malfunction code only in diag\
nostic code check in
[2] , it could result in a misdiagnosis, leading to troubleshooting of circuits which are normal \
and making
it more difficult to locate the cause of the problem.
[3] SETTING THE TEST MODE DIAGNOSIS, [4] PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION, [5] SYMPTOM SIMULATION
In order to find out the trouble more quickly, set the diagnosis check in test mode and with higher sensing
ability of the ECU, confirm the problem symptoms. If the trouble does not reappear, use the symptom simu-
lation method to make sure the trouble is reproduced.
[6] DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHECK IN TEST MODE Check the diagnostic code in test mode. If the malfunction code is output, pr\
oceed to ºstep [8] Diagnostic
Code Chartº. If the normal code is output, proceed to ºstep [7] Basic Inspectionº.
[7] BASIC INSPECTION Carry out basic inspection such as the spark check and fuel pressure che\
ck, etc.
[8] DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHART If the malfunction code is displayed, proceed to inspect the circuit ind\
icated by the chart for each code.
[9] MATRIX CHART OF PROBLEM SYMPTOMS If the normal code is displayed in the diagnosis in test mode, perform tro\
ubleshooting according to the in-
spection order in the Matrix Chart of Problem Symptoms.
[10] PARTS INSPECTION When the Matrix Chart of Problem Symptoms instructs to check the parts, proc\
eed to parts inspection sec-
tion included in this manual.
[11] CIRCUIT INSPECTION Determine if the malfunction is the sensor, actuator, wire harness, connector or the ECU.

How to Proceed with Troubleshooting Using Volt/Ohm Meter
and TCCS Checker
For the explanation of steps [1] ~ [6], [8] and [10] ~ [16], see the explan\
ation of steps with the same title on page
TR±2.
[7] [9] CIRCUIT INSPECTION BY CHECKER If the Normal code is displayed in the diagnostic code check, connect the \
checker to the vehicle and check
all the circuits which can be inspected using the checker.
If a malfunctioning circuit is then detected, proceed to ºCircuit Ins\
pection by Volt/Ohm Meterº and check
the applicable circuit using a volt/ohm meter. Determine if the malfunction is in the sensor, actuator, wire
harness, connector or the ECU. If the malfunctioning circuit cannot be detected u\
sing the checker, proceed
to ºBasic Inspectionº and perform troubleshooting.
If a malfunction code is displayed in the diagnostic code check, use the c\
hecker to inspect the circuit indi-
cated by the diagnostic code chart for the displayed code.
For instructions on how to connect the checker to the vehicle and how to us\
e the checker, please refer to
the Instruction Manual for TCCS checker.

Diagnosis Inspection (Test Mode)
Compared to the normal mode, the test mode has high sensing
ability to detect malfunctions.
It can also detect malfunctions in the starter signal circuit, the IDL
contact signal of the throttle position sensor, air conditioner signal
and neutral start switch signal.
Furthermore, the same diagnostic items which are detected in the
normal mode can also be detected in the test mode.
DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHECK
1. Initial conditions.(a) Battery voltage 11 V or more.
(b) Throttle valve fully closed (throttle position sensor IDLpoints closed).
(c) Transmission in neutral position.
(d) Air conditioner switched off.
2. Turn ignition switch off.
3. Using SST, connect terminals TE2 and E1 of TDCL. SST 09843±18020
4. Turn ignition switch on. HINT:
wTo confirm that the test mode is operating, check that the
ºCHECKº engine warning light flashes when the ignition
switch is turned to ON.
w If the ºCHECKº engine warning light does not flash,
proceed to tro ubleshooting of the TE2 terminal circuit on
page TR±146 .
5. Start the engine.
6. Simulate the conditions of the malfunction described by the customer.
7. After the road test, using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1
of TDCL or check connector.

BASIC INSPECTION
When the normal code is displayed in the diagnostic code check, troubleshoot\
ing should be performed in the
order for all possible circuits to be considered as the causes of the pr\
oblems.
In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the follo\
wing flow chart, the location causing
the problem can be found quickly and ef ficiently. Therefore, use of this check is essential in engine troubleshoot-
ing.
1Is battery voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?
Charge or replace battery.
2Is engine cracnked?
Proceed to matrix to matrix chart of problem
symptoms on page TR±35.
