AIRBAG SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTIC)
General Description
3. General Description
A: CAUTION
When servicing a vehicle, be sure to turn the ig-
nition switch to OFF, disconnect the ground cable
from battery, and wait for more than 20 seconds
before starting work.
The airbag system is fitted with a backup power
source. If the airbag system is serviced within 20
seconds after the ground cable is disconnected, it
may inflate.
If sensors, airbag module, airbag control module,
pretensioner, and harness are deformed or dam-
aged, replace them with new genuine parts.
Do not use the airbag system and pretensioners
on other vehicles. When replacing parts, be sure to
replace them with new parts.
When checking the system, be sure to use a dig-
ital circuit tester. Use of an analog circuit tester may
cause the airbag to activate erroneously. When checking, use a test harness. Do not di-
rectly apply the tester probe to any connector termi-
nal of the airbag.
Do not drop the airbag modulator parts, subject
them to high temperature over 93°C (199°F), or let
water, oil, or grease get on them; otherwise, the in-
ternal parts may be damaged and reliability greatly
lowered.

AIRBAG SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTIC)
Airbag Warning Light Failure
11.Airbag Warning Light Failure
A: AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON.
DIAGNOSIS:
Airbag warning light unit is faulty.
Airbag control module to airbag warning light circuit is shorted or open.
Grounding circuit is faulty.
Airbag control module is faulty.
(AB1) and (B31) are not connected properly.
(AB3) is not connected properly to the airbag control module.
CAUTION:
Before diagnosing the airbag system, be sure to turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the
ground cable from battery, and wait more than 20 seconds before starting to work.
After replacing the airbag module, seat belt pretensioner, roll connector, control module or sensor,
reconnect each part and confirm that the airbag warning light operates properly.
When inspecting the airbag main harness, disconnect the airbag module connector of the driver
and passenger seats for safety reasons.
