HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT
Most intermittent malfunctions occur under certain conditions. If those conditions can be identified, the
cause will be easier to find.
TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION;1. Ask the customer about the malfunction
Ask what it feels
it sounds like, etc.
Then ask about
conditions; weather,
frequency of occurrence, and so on.
2.Determine the from the custom-
er’s responses
Typically, almost all intermittent malfunctions
occur from conditions like vibration, tempera-
ture and/or moisture change, poor connections.
From the customer’s replies, it should be rea-
soned which condition is influenced.
3. Use simulation test In the cases of vibration or poor connections,
use the simulation tests below to attempt to
duplicate the customer’s complaint. Determine
the most likely circuit(s) and perform
tion tests on the connectors and parts of that
circuit(s). Be sure to use the inspection proce-
dures provided for trouble codes
a n d t r o u b l e s y m p t o m s .
For temperature and/or moisture conditions re-
lated intermittent malfunctions, using common
sense, try to change the of
circuit components, then use
tion tests below,
4. Verify the intermittent malfunction is elimi-
nated
Repair the malfunctioning part and try to
the condition(s) again to verify the intermit-
tent malfunction has been eliminated.
SIMULATION TESTS
For these simulation tests, shake, then gently bend , pull,
and twist the wiring of each of these examples to d uplicate
the intermittent malfunction.
l Shake the connector up-and-down, and right-and-left .
lShake the wiring harness up-and-down, and right-and -left.
l Vibrate the part or sensor.
NOTE
In case of difficulty in finding the cause of the i ntermittent
malfunction, the data recorder function in the scan tool is
effective.

GENERAL before Service
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
1. to follow when servicing SRS
(1) Be sure to read GROUP Supplemental Restraint System
For safe operations, please follow the directions a nd heed all
(2) Always use the designated special tools and tes t equipment.
(3) Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery cable before” further work;
The SRS system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bag even after the battery
has been disconnected. Serious injury may result from unintended air bag deployment if work
is done on the SRS system immediately after the bat tery cable is disconnected.
(4) Never attempt to disassemble or repair the SRS components (SRS-ECU air bag module and
clock spring). If faulty, replace it.
(5) Warning labels must be heeded when servicing or handling SRS components. Warning labels
are located in the following locations.
Sun visor
l Glove box
. S R S - E C U
l Steering wheel
l Air bag module
l Clock spring
l Steering gear and linkage clamp
(6) Store components removed from the SRS
a clean and dry place.
The air bag module should be stored on a flat surfa ce and placed so that the pad surface is’
facing upward.
Do not place anything on top of it.
(7) Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing of the air bag’module or disposing of a vehicle
equipped with an air bag. (Refer to GROUP
Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.)
(8) Whenever you finish servicing the
check the SRS warning light operation to make sure
that the system functions properly.
2.Observe the following when carrying out operations on places where SRS components are installed,’
.,
including operations not directly related to the SR S air bag.
(1) When removing or installing parts do not allow any impact or shock to the SRS components.
(2) SRS components should not be subjected to heat over so remove the SRS compo-
nents before drying or baking the vehicle after painting.
After re-installing them, check the SRS warning lig ht operation to make sure that the system
functions properly.
SERVICING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1. Note the following before proceeding with work o n the
