SRS - SRS Maintenance52B-42
SRS MAINTENANCE
The SRS must be inspected by an authorized dealer 10 years
after the date of vehicle registration.
SRS WARNING LAMP CHECK
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. Does the SRS
warning lamp illuminate for about 7 seconds, and then go
out? If yes, SRS system is functioning properly. If no, refer
to page 52B-6.
SRS COMPONENT VISUAL CHECK
Turn the ignition key to LOCK (OFF) position, disconnect
the negative ( - ) battery cable and tape the terminal.
Caution
Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery
cable before doing any further work. (Refer to P.52B-3.)
SRS CONTROL UNIT (SRS-ECU)
1. Check SRS-ECU case and brackets for dents, cracks,
deformation or rust.
Caution
The SRS may not activate if the SRS-ECU is not
installed properly, which could result in serious injury
or death to the vehicle’s driver or front passenger.
2. Check connector for damage, and terminals for
deformation or rust.
Replace SRS-ECU if it fails visual check.

AIR BAG MODULES, STEERING WHEEL AND CLOCK
SPRING AND SEAT BELT WITH PRE-TENSIONER
1. Remove the air bag modules, steering wheel and clock
spring. (Refer to P.52B-52.)
Caution
The removed air bag modules should be stored in
a clean, dry place with the cover face up.
2. Check cover for dents, cracks or deformation.
3. Check connector for damage, terminals deformities, and
harness for binds.
4. Check air bag inflator case for dents, cracks or deformities.
5. Check harness and connectors for damage, and terminals
for deformation.
6. Check clock spring connectors and protective tube for
damage, and terminals for deformation.
7. Visually check the clock spring case for damage.
8. Align the mating marks of the clock spring and, after
turning the vehicle’s front wheels to straight-ahead
position, install the clock spring to the column switch.
Mating Mark Alignment
Turn the clock spring clockwise fully, and then turn back
it approx. 3 times counterclockwise to align the mating
marks.
Caution
If the clock spring’s mating mark is not properly
aligned, the steering wheel may not be completely
rotational during a turn, or the flat cable within the
clock spring may be severed, obstructing normal
operation of the SRS and possibly leading to serious
injury to the vehicle’s driver or front passenger.
9. Install the steering column covers, steering wheel and
the air bag module.
10. Check steering wheel for noise, binds of difficult operation.
11. Check steering wheel for excessive free play.Inflator

SRS - Post-collision Diagnosis52B-45
POST-COLLISION DIAGNOSIS
Whether or not the air bags have deployed, check and service
the vehicle after collision as follows:
SRS-ECU MEMORY CHECK
1. Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector. (Refer
to GROUP 00 – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points.)
Caution
Refer to that the ignition switch is LOCK(OFF) when
connecting or disconnecting MUT-II.
2. Read (and write down) all displayed diagnosis codes.
(Refer to P.52B-9.)
NOTE
If battery power supply has been shut down by the
collision, the MUT-IIcannot communicate with the
SRS-ECU. Check and, repair if necessary, the instrument
panel wiring harness before the next job.
3. Use the the MUT-IIto read the data list (how long trouble(s)
have continued and how often memory have been
erased).
