BODY WIRING HARNESS
* Body wiring harness
NOTE
*: Vehicles with front passenger’s air bag
1. Check connector for poor connection.
2. Check harnesses for binds, connectors for damage, and
terminals for deformation.
REPLACE ANY CONNECTORS OR HARNESS THAT
FAIL THE VISUAL INSPECTION. (Refer to P.52B-3.)
Caution
The SRS may not activate if SRS harnesses or
connectors are damaged or improperly connected,
which could result in serious injury or death to the
vehicle’s driver or front passenger.
POST-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the ignition
key to the “ON” position. Does the SRS warning lamp illuminate
for about 7 seconds, turn off and then remain extinguished
for at least 5 seconds? If yes, SRS system is functioning
properly. If no, consult page 52B-6.

Caution
1. Disconnect the battery (–) terminal and wait
for 60 seconds or more before starting work.
Furthermore, the disconnected battery
terminal should be covered with tape to
insulate it. (Refer to P.52B-3.)
2. Never attempt to disassemble or repair the

Check connector for damage, and terminals for
deformation.
Caution
If a dent, crack, deformation or rust is discovered,
replace the SRS-ECU with a new one.
NOTE
For checking of the SRS-ECU other than described above,
refer to the section concerning troubleshooting. (Refer
to P.52B-6.)
AIR BAG MODULES AND CLOCK SPRING
Caution
1. Disconnect the battery (–) terminal and wait
for 60 seconds or more before starting work.
Furthermore, the disconnected battery
terminal should be covered with tape to
insulate it. (Refer to P.52B-3.)
2. Never attempt to disassemble or repair the
air bag modules or clock spring.
If faulty, replace it.
3. Do not drop the air bag modules or clock
spring or allow contact with water, grease
or oil.
Replace it if a dent, crack, deformation or
rust is detected.
4. The air bag modules should be stored on
a flat surface and placed so that the pad
surface is facing upward.
Do not place anything on top of it.5. Do not expose the air bag modules to
temperatures over 93C.
6. Both driver’s side and front passenger’s
side air bag modules should be replaced
with new ones once the respective air bags
were deployed. The clock springs should
also be checked and replaced with new ones
if considered abnormal.
7. Wear gloves and safety glasses when
handling air bags that have already
deployed.
8. An undeployed air bag module should only
be disposed of in accordance with the
procedures (Refer to P.52B-32.)

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
APRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
1. When installing the new air bag modules and clock spring,
refer to “INSPECTION”.
Caution
Dispose of air bag modules only according to the
specified procedure. (Refer to P.52B-32.)
2. Connect the battery (–) terminal.
3. Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector.
Caution
Make certain that the ignition switch is LOCK (OFF)
when the MUT-II is connected or disconnected.
4. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position.
5. Conduct self-diagnosis using the MUT-II to ensure entire
SRS operates properly, except open circuit of air bag
modules.
6. Turn the ignition key to the 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 – Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring52B-29
BCLOCK SPRING INSTALLATION
Align the mating marks of the clock spring and, after turning
the front wheels to the 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 4/5 turns counterclockwise to align the mating marks.
Caution
If the clock spring’s mating marks are 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.
CSTEERING WHEEL INSTALLATION
1. Before installation the steering wheel, be sure to first
turn the vehicle’s front wheels to the straight-ahead
position and align the mating marks of the clock spring.
Caution
Be sure when installing the steering wheel, that the
harness of the clock spring does not become caught
or tangled.
2. After clamping, turn the steering wheel all the way in
both directions to confirm that steering is normal.
DPOST-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
1. Turn the steering wheel lightly to the left and right to
check if it can be operated properly without any
abnormality.
2. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
3. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position.
4. Does the “SRS” warning lamp illuminate for about 7
seconds, and then remain extinguished for at least 5
seconds after turning OFF?
5. If yes, SRS system is functioning properly.
If no, consult page 52B-6.

Key hole illumination lamp remains illuminated.
Probable cause
The cause is probably a harness short or a defective ETACS-ECU or buzzer ECU.
Malfunction of harness wire

Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

Malfunction of buzzer ECU

Replace the ETACS-ECU or buzzer ECU.
Inspection Procedure 2
Even if driver’s side door is opened, key hole illumination
lamp does not illuminate.
Probable cause
The cause is probably a defective key hole illumination lamp circuit system, or a
defective driver’s side door switch input circuit system if the ignition key reminder
warning buzzer is also faulty.

Inspection Procedure 3
While key hole illumination lamp is illuminated, ignition
key is turned to the ON position but key hole illumination
lamp does not switch off. (However, it switch off after 15
seconds.)
Probable cause
While the key reminder warning buzzer is sounding, the
ignition key is turned to the ON position but the sound
dose not stop. (However, it stops when the driver’s side
door is closed.)
The cause is probably a malfunction of the ignition switch input circuit, ETACS-ECU
or buzzer ECU. Furthermore, if there is a malfunction of a multipurpose fuse, the
cause may also be a short circuit in a harness.
