INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SERVICE
If the SRS components are to be removed or replaced as a result of maintenance, troubleshooting,
etc., follow each procedure (P.52B-24 – P.52B-31)
Caution
1. SRS components should not be subjected to hear over 93C, so remove the SRS-ECU, air
bag module and clock spring before drying or baking the vehicle after painting.
Recheck SRS system operability after re-installing them.
2. If the SRS components are removed for the purpose of check, sheet metal repair, painting,
etc., they should be stored in a clean, dry place until they are reinstalled.

SRS – Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures52B-33
3. Peform the following procedure to deploy each air bag
module.

(1) Remove the steering column cover lower.
(2) Remove the connection between the clock spring
2-pin connector (red) and the body wiring harness
connector.
NOTE
If the clock spring connector is disconnected from
the body wiring harness, both electrodes of the clock
spring connector will be automatically shorted to
prevent unintended deployment of the air bag due
to static electricity, etc.
(3) Connect two wires, each six meters or longer, to the
two leads of SRS air bag adapter harness A and
cover the connections with insulation tape. The other
ends of the two wires should be connected to each
other (short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected
deployment of the air bag.
(4) Connect the clock spring or air bag module (front
passenger’s side) 2-pin connector (red) to SRS air
bag adapter harness A and pass the deployment
wires out of the vehicle.
(5) Shut all the doors with their window glasses closed
and cover the vehicle with a body cover to suppress
explosion noise leaks as much as possible.
Caution
Be sure to wrap the vehicle entirely in a body cover,
otherwise damaged glass panes could break into
fragments, bringing about a very dangerous situation.
(6) At a location as far away from the vehicle as possible,
disconnect the two connected wires from each other,
and connect them to the two terminals of the battery
(which has been removed from the vehicle) to deploy
the air bag.

TROUBLESHOOTING
There is noise when the engine is running.
Kind of Noise (Parenthe-
sized is how noise
sounds.)SymptomCauseRemedy
AM, FM: Ignition noise
(Popping, snapping,
crackling, buzzing)
Popping sound becomes
faster with the increase
of engine speed.

The noise is lost with
ignition switch turned to
ACC.
Mainly due to the
spark plugs.

Due to noise circula-
tion from elsewhere

Noise from the engineCheck the noise capacitor
and earth cable and
replace if necessary. (See
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(1) (Murmuring)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON and
OFF.Noise produced by spark-
ing when the defogger
switch is turned to ON/
OFF enters the glass
antenna.Check the noise capacitor
and replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 1.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(2) (Snapping noise)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON.Noise produced by current
flowing in the defogger
enters the glass antenna.Check the choke coil and
replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 3.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(3) (Scratching, gaggling)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON with
print heater wire broken.Noise produced by spark-
ing where print heater is
broken enters the glass
antenna.Repair the print heater.
AM, FM: Wiper motor
noise (Humming, wheez-
ing)Sound becomes faster with
the increase of wiper speed
and is lost when the wiper is
stopped.Caused by sparking in
wiper motor brush.Replace the wiper motor.
FM: Mirror motor noise
(Humming, wheezing)Occurs when electric mirror
operates.Caused by sparking in
mirror motor brush.Replace the electric
motor.
Other electrical compo-
nents–Noise is emitted by some
electrical components in
long use.Repair or replace electri-
cal components.
Static electricity (Crack-
ling, crinkling)
Noise is stopped when
the vehicle comes to a
complete stop.

Noise becomes louder
when the clutch is
released.Occurs when parts or
wiring move for some
reason and contact metal
parts of the body.Put parts or wiring into
position.
Various noises are produced
by body parts.Due to electrical detach-
ment of the hood, exhaust
pipe and muffler, suspen-
sion, etc. from the body.Tighten mounting bolts
securely. In many cases,
remedy of one part does
not eliminate the problem
due to incomplete earthing
elsewhere.
Caution
(1) Never let the noise filter contact a high tension cable. The noise filter could break down.
(2) Check that there is no external noise. This check is necessary to prevent misidentification of noise
sources.
(3) Noise prevention should be performed by eliminating noise sources in the descending order of loudness.

Probable cause
If the condenser fan does not turn when the A/C is ON, the cause is probably
a malfunction of the condenser fan motor activation circuit. In this case, reduced
cooling performance will be caused if the vehicle is not running.
