General Description
3. General Description
A: CAUTION
Supplemental Restraint System “Airbag”
The airbag system wiring harness is routed near
the TCM.
CAUTION:
 All airbag system wiring harness and con-
nectors are colored yellow. Do not use an elec-
trical test equipment on these circuit.
 Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness when performing diagnostics and
servicing the TCM.
Measurement
When measuring the voltage and resistance of
ECM, TCM or each sensor, use a tapered pin with
diameter of less than 0.64 mm (0.025 in) in order to
avoid poor contact. Do not insert the pin more than
0.65 mm (0.026 in).
B: INSPECTION
1. BATTERY
Measure the battery voltage and specific gravity of
electrolyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V or more
Specific gravity: Above 1.260
2. TRANSMISSION GROUND
Make sure that the ground terminal bolt is tightened
securely.
