Improperly mounted wheel speed sensorCorrect sensor installation.
Missing or collapsed ABS rotor toothReplace ABS rotor.
Caution
Since the wheel speed sensor cable follows the movement of the front or rear suspension, it
may be open-circuited only when the vehicle is run on rough roads and not on ordinary road.
The wheel speed sensor output voltage waveform should therefore be checked also by rocking
the sensor harness so that driving on rough roads may be simulated.
ACTION WHEN BATTERY RUNS OUT
When the engine is started using a booster cable where the
battery has completely run down and you attempt to start
the vehicle without waiting for the battery to recover a certain
charge, the engine can misfire and you just cannot start to
move it. In such cases, charge the battery sufficiently; or,
remove the AYC fusible link from the engine compartment
relay box to make AYC inactive before attempting to start
the vehicle. When the fusible link is removed, the AYC warning
lamp lights up. After the battery has been recharged, fit the
fusible link back again and start the engine to ensure that
the AYC warning lamp is off.AYC fusible link

SRS – General Information52B-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
To improve safety, the SRS is available as optional
part.
The SRS consists of two air bag modules, SRS
air bag control unit (SRS-ECU), SRS warning lamp
and clock spring. One air bag is located in the
centre of the steering wheel and another above
the glove box. Each air bag has a folded air bag
and an inflator unit. The control unit under the floor
console monitors the system and has a safing G
sensor and an analog G sensor. The warning lamp
on the instrument panel indicates the operationalstatus of the SRS. The clock spring is installed
in the steering column.
Only authorized service personnel should do work
on or around the SRS components. Those service
personnel should read this manual carefully before
staring any such work. Extreme care must be used
when servicing the SRS to avoid injury to the service
personnel (by inadvertent deployment of the air
bags) or the driver (by rendering the SRS
inoperative).

TROUBLESHOOTING
STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING
Refer to GROUP 00 – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
DIAGNOSIS CODES CHECK
Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector (16-pin) under the instrument under cover, then check
diagnosis codes.
(Refer to GROUP 00 – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points.)
ERASING DIAGNOSIS CODES
Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector and erase the diagnosis code.
Caution
Turn off the ignition switch before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
