GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LEXUS SC400/300 is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System\
) such as the driver
airbag and front passenger airbag. Failure to carry out service operations in \
the correct sequence
could cause the SRS to unexpectedly deployed during servicing, possibly leadin\
g to a serious acci-
dent. Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental restraint system, i\
t is possible the
SRS may fail to operate when required. Before performing servicing (inc\
luding removal or installa-
tion of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure to read the followin\
g items carefully, then follow
the correct procedure described in the repair manual.
1. Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental restraint system are difficult to confirm, so the diagnostic trouble codes become the most important source of information when troubleshooting. When
troubleshooting the supplemental restraint system, always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before
disconnecting the battery (See page RS±59).
2. Work must be started after 90 seconds from the time the ignition switch turn\
ed to the LOCK position
and the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (The supplemental restraint
system is equipped with a back±up power source so that if work is sta\
rted within 90 seconds of
disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable of the battery, the SRS may be deployed.)
When the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio sys-
tems will be canceled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memo\
rized by the audio
memory system. When work is finished, reset the audio systems as before and ad\
just the clock. When the
vehicle has power tilt and power telescopic steering, power seat, power outside rear view mirror and power
shoulder belt anchorage, which are all equipped with memory function, it is not \
possible to make a record
of the memory contents. So when the work is finished, it will be necessary\
to explain this fact to the custom-
er, and ask the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory.
To avoid erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back±up\
power supply from outside
the vehicle.
3. Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front passenger
airbag assembly, front airbag sensors and center airbag sensor assembly should be inspe\
cted (See pages
RS±16 , 28 , 41 and 44).
4. Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace \
them with new parts.
5. Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensors during r\
epairs.
6. Never disassemble and repair the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag a\
ssembly, front airbag sensors or center airbag sensor assembly in order to reuse it.
7. If the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, front airbag sensors or center airbag sensor assembly have been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or dents or ot\
her defects in the case, bracket
or connector, replace them with new ones.
8. Do not expose the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, front airbag sensors and center airbag sensor assembly directly to hot air or flames.
9. Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k /V minimum) of troubleshooting of the system's electrical
circuit.
10. Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. \
Follow the instructions on the
notices.
11. After work on the supplemental restraint system is completed, perform the SRS\
warning light check (See page RS±59 ).
12. If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to \
the precaution in the IN section. RS±2

2. REMOVE STEERING WHEEL PAD
(a) Place the front wheels facing straight ahead.
(b) Using a torx wrench, loosen the 4 screws. Torx wrench: T30(Part No. 09042±00010 or locally manufactured tool)
(d) Loosen the torx screws until the groove along the screw circumference catches on the screw case.
(e) P u l l t h e w heel pad out from the steering wheel and
disconnect the SRS connector.
NOTICE: When removing the wheel pad, take care not to
pull the airbag wire harness.
CAUTION:
w When storing the wheel pad, keep the upper surface of
the pad facing upward (See pages RS±3).
w Never disassemble the wheel pad.
3. REMOVE STEERING WHEEL
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Remove the set nut.
(c) Place matchmarks on the steering wheel and main shaft.
(d) Using SST, remove the steering wheel.

4. REMOVE AND INSTALL SPIRAL CABLE FROM/TO COMBINATION SWITCH
(See page BE±51)
NOTICE: Do not disassemble the spiral cable or apply oil
to it.
5. CENTER SPIRAL CABLE
(a) Check that the front wheels are facing straight ahead.
(b) Turn the spiral cable c ounterclockwise by hand until it
becomes harder to turn the cable.
(c) Then rotate the spiral cable clockwise about 3 turns to align the red mark.

SRS AIRBAG
NOTICE: When inspecting or repairing the SRS AIRBAG, perform the operation in accord\
ance with the
following precautionary instructions and the procedure and precautions in the Repair Manual for the applicable
model year.
Malfunction symptoms of the airbag system are difficult to confirm, so the diagnostic codes become the most
important source of information when troubleshooting.
When troubleshooting the airbag system, always inspect the diagnostic codes before disconnecting the
battery.
Work must be started after 30 seconds or longer from the time the Ignition SW is set to the ªLOCKº position
and the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.
(The airbag system is equipped with a back±up power source so that if work is started within 30 seconds of
disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable of the battery, the airbag may be deployed.)
When the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio systems
will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by each me\
mory system.
Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio system as before.
When the vehicle has tilt and telescopic steering, power seat, outside r\
ear view mirror and power shoulder
belt anchorage, which are all equipped with memory function, it is not possible to make a record of the memory
contents. So when the operation is finished, it will be necessary to explain this\
fact to the customer, and
request the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory.
To avoid erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back±up \
power supply from outside the
vehicle.
When removing the steering wheel pad or handling a new steering wheel pad, keep the pad upper surfa\
ce
facing upward. Also, lock the lock lever of the twin lock type connector\
at the rear of the pad and take care
not to damage the connector.
(Storing the pad with its metallic surface up may lead to a serious accident if \
the airbag inflates for some
reason).
Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient temperature remains below\
93 °C (200 °F), without high
humidity and away from electrical noise.
Never use airbag parts from another vehicle. When replacing airbag parts\
, replace them with new parts.
Never disassemble or repair the steering wheel pad, center airbag sensor asse\
mbly or front airbag sensors.
Before repairing the body, remove the airbag sensors if during repair shocks are likely to be app\
lied to the
sensors due to vibration of the body or direct tapping with tools or oth\
er parts.
Do not reuse a steering wheel pad or front airbag sensors.
After evaluating whether the center airbag sensor assembly is damaged or not, decide whether or not to reuse
it. (See the Repair Manual for the method for evaluating the center airbag\
sensor assembly.)
When troubleshooting the airbag system, use a high±impedance (Min. 1\
0k W/V) tester.
The vehicle wiring harness exclusively for the airbag system is distinguish\
ed by corrugated yellow tubing, as
are the connectors.
Do not measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(It is possible this will deploy the airbag and is very dangerous.)
If the wire harness used in the airbag system is damaged, replace the wh\
ole wire harness assembly.
When the connector to the airbag front sensors can be repaired alone (when \
there is no damage to the wire
harness), use the repair wire specially designed for the purpose.
(Refer to the Repair Manual for the applicable Model year for details o\
f the replacement method.)
INFORMATION LABELS (NOTICES) are attached to the periphery of the airbag componen\
ts. Follow the
instructions on the notices.
