Trouble Diagnoses Introduction
CAUTION:
lDo not use electrical test equipment to check SRS harness connectors unless instructed to in
this Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow harness protector or yel-
low insulation tape before the harness connectors.
lDo not attempt to repair, splice or modify the SRS wiring harness. If the harness is damaged,
replace it with a new one.
lKeep ground portion clean.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp and/or CONSULT. The
reading of these results is accomplished using one of two modes Ð ``User mode'' and ``Diagnosis mode''.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system
malfunction through the operation of the ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the ``AIR BAG'' warning lamp and CONSULT are as follows:
User mode Diagnosis mode Display type
``AIR BAG'' warning lamp X X ON-OFF operation
DIAGNOSIS MODE FOR CONSULT
l``SELF-DIAG [CURRENT]''
A current Self-diagnosis result (also indicated by the warning lamp flashes in the Diagnosis mode) is
displayed on the CONSULT screen in real time. This refers to a malfunctioning part requiring repairs.
l``SELF-DIAG [PAST]''
Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory are displayed on the CONSULT screen. The stored
results are not erased until memory erasing is executed.
l``TROUBLE DIAG RECORD''
With TROUBLE DIAG RECORD, diagnosis results previously erased by a reset operation can be dis-
played on the CONSULT screen.
l``ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.''
The diagnosis sensor unit for each vehicle model is assigned with its own, individual classification number.
This number will be displayed on the CONSULT screen, as shown at left. When replacing the diagnosis
sensor unit, refer to the part number for the compatibility. After installation, replacement with a correct unit
can be checked by confirming this classification number on the CONSULT screen. The diagnosis sensor
unit classification number varies depending on SRS configuration.
For NISSAN MODEL D22, the diagnosis sensor unit classification numbers assigned are as follows.
MODEL ECU DISCRIMINATED NO.
Single air bag 5A0B
Dual air bag 5A0A
