1. Check the SRS fuses (multi-purpose fuses No. 11 and No.
18).If either is loose, tighten it; if damaged or blown, replace it.
.
2.After performing step 1, start engine. Does “SRS” warning
light
illumi.nate for about 7 seconds and then turn OFF? If
yes, SRS system is functioning properly.
If no, continue with following steps.
NOTEIf the battery power supply (multi-purpose fuses No. 11 or
No. 18) is disconnected with the ignition key in the “ON”
position, the SRS warning light will continue to illuminate
even after the fuses are replaced in their original positions.
In this case, the SRS warning light can be extinguished by
turning the ignition switch ON and OFF
10 times.
3. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position.
4. Insert ROM pack into the Multi-use Tester and connect
tester to Diagnosis Check Connector in glove compart-
ment.
5. Start the SRS diagnosis,by conducting TEST 1
(SRSwarninq liqht does not extinguish) or TEST 2 (SRS warning
light does- not illuminate.) which begins on next page or

Caution
Wait at least 30 seconds after disconnecting the battery
cable before doing any further work. The SRS system is
designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bagfor a short time even after the battery has been
disconnected, so serious injury may result from unin-
tended air bag deployment if work is done on the SRSsystem immediately after the battery cable is discon-
nected.(2) Remove the rear console assembly. (Refer to GROUP 52A
