After turning ignition key to ªONº position, ªAIR BAGº warning
lamp illuminates. The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp will go off after
about 7 seconds if no malfunction is detected. If any of the fol-
lowing ªAIR BAGº warning lamp conditions occur, immediately
check the air bag system. Refer to RS-59 for details.
+The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned ªONº.
+The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp does not go off about 7 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned ªONº.
+The ªAIR BAGº warning lamp blinks after about 7 seconds after
the ignition switch is turned ªONº.
2. Visually check SRS components.
1) Diagnosis sensor unit
+Check diagnosis sensor unit and bracket for dents, cracks and
deformities.
+Check connectors for damage, and terminals for deformities.
2) Air bag module and steering wheel
+Remove air bag module from steering wheel, instrument panel
or seatback. Check harness cover and connectors for damage,
terminals for deformities, and harness for binding.
+Install driver air bag module to steering wheel to check fit or
alignment with the wheel.
+Check steering wheel for excessive free play.
+Install front passenger air bag module to instrument panel to
check fit or alignment with the instrument panel.
+Install front side air bag module to seatback to check fit and
alignment with the seat.
3) Spiral cable
+Check spiral cable for dents, cracks, or deformities.
+Check connectors and protective tape for damage.
+Check steering wheel for noise, binding or heavy operation.
4) Main harness, body harness, side air bag module sub-harness
+Check connectors for poor connections, damage, and termi-
nals for deformities.
+Check harnesses for binding, chafing or cut.
5) Front seat belt pre-tensioner
+Check harness cover and connectors for damage, terminals
for deformities, and harness for binding.
+Check belts for damage and anchors for loose mounting.
+Check retractor for smooth operation.
+Perform self-diagnosis for seat belt pre-tensioner using ªAIR
BAGº warning lamp or CONSULT-II.
Refer to ªSRS Operation Checkº for details. (RS-59)
6) Side air bag (satellite) sensor
+Check side air bag (satellite) sensor (including bracket portion)
