SAFETY
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) Airbag System

A newly developed SRS knee airbag is standard equipment for the driver's seat on the new
Avensis.

The SRS knee airbag is positioned in the lower part of the instrument pa\
nel on the driver's side
to receive the impact of the driver's lower body when he or she shifts forward in the event of
a frontal collision, contributing to prevention of secondary impact to t\
he lower body.

Dual-stage SRS airbags are standard equipment for the driver and front p\
assenger seats. In
the event of a severe frontal collision, the airbags function with the s\
eat belts to help reduce
the impact on the driver's and front passenger's head and chest. The seat position sensor is
adopted only for the driver's seat to help the driver side SRS airbag deploy at the right moment.

SRS side airbags (driver / front passenger seats) which help ease side\
impacts, are standard
equipment.

SRS curtain shield airbags (front/rear seats) that help ease side impa\
cts are standard
equipment for all models except 1AZ-FE engine models. They are available as an op\
tion for
1AZ-FE engine models.

(3) Checking of the contact pressure of the terminal:
Prepare a spare male terminal.
Insert it into a female terminal, check the engaged
condition and sliding resistance.
(d) REPAIR METHOD OF CONNECTOR TERMINAL (1) If there is on the contact point, clean the contact
point using an air gun or shop rag. However, never
polish the contact point using sand paper as the
platings may come off.
(2) In case of abnormal contact pressure, replace the
female terminal. However, if a male terminal is gold±
plated (gold color), use gold±plated female terminal
and if it is silver±plated (silver color), use silver±
plated female terminal.
(e) HANDLING OF WIRE HARNESS (1) When removing the wire harness, check the posi-tioning of the wiring and clamping before starting
work in order to be able to restore it correctly.
(2) Never twist, pull or loosen the wire harness more
than necessary.
(3) Never allow the wire harness to come into contact with a high±temperature, rotating, moving, vibrating
or sharp (edge of the panel, tip of the screw, etc.)
part.
(4) When installing parts, never let the wire harness be interfered with.
(5) Never cut or break the cover of the wire harness. If one is cut or broken, replace it or securely repair it
with electrical tape.
2. CHECK OPEN CIRCUIT
(a) For the open circuit in the wire harness in Fig. 1, perform a continuity check in step (b) or a voltage check in step (c)
to locate the section.

(b) Check the continuity. (1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure theresistance between them.
Resistance: 1
or less
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally. In the case of Fig. 2:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and terminal 1
of connector C
No continuity (open)
Between terminal 2 of connector A and terminal 2
of connector C
Continuity
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector A and terminal 1 of connector
C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the resis-
tance between the connectors.
In the case of Fig. 3:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and terminal 1
of connector B1
Continuity
Between terminal 1 of connector B2 and terminal 1
of connector C
No continuity (open)
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector B2 and terminal 1 of connector
C.
(c) Check the voltage. (1) In a circuit in which voltage is applied (to the ECUconnector terminal), an open circuit can be checked
by conducting a voltage check.
As shown in Fig. 4, with each connector still con-
nected, measure the voltage between the body
ground and terminal 1 of connector A at the ECU 5
V output terminal, terminal 1 of connector B, and
terminal 1 of connector C, in that order.
(2) If the results are: 5 V: Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground
5 V: Between terminal 1 of connector B and body
ground
0 V: Between terminal 1 of connector C and body
ground
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit in the wire
harness between terminal 1 of connector B and ter-
minal 1 of connector C.

3. CHECK SHORT CIRCUIT
(a) If the wire harness is ground shorted as shown in Fig. 5,
locate the section by conducting a continuity check with
the body ground in step (b).
(b) Check the continuity with the body ground. (1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure the
resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of connector
A and the body ground.
Resistance: 10 k
or higher
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
In the case of Fig. 6:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground Continuity (short)
Between terminal 2 of connector A and body
ground No continuity
Therefore, the cause is a short circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector A and terminal 1 of connector
C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the resis- tance between terminal 1 of connector A and the
body ground, and terminal 1 of connector B2 and
the body ground.
In the case of Fig. 7:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground No continuity
Between terminal 1 of connector B2 and body
ground Continuity (short)
Therefore, the cause is a short circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector B2 and terminal 1 of connector
C.

SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
HINT:

The diagnostic system in AVENSIS has various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) Check, in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code form in
the ECU memory. Another function is the Input Signal Check, which checks if the signals from various
switches are sent to the ECU correctly. By using these check functions, it is possible to quickly narrow
down potential problem areas and troubleshooting can be performed effectively. The diagnostic func-
tions are incorporated in the following systems in the AVENSIS.

In the DTC check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the DTC is still
occurring or has occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addit\
ion during the problem
symptom check, it a check must be made on whether the malfunction indicated by \
the DTC is directly
related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the DTC should be checked before and after
symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions. If this is not done, \
it may, depending on the
case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting for systems that are operati\
ng normally. This would make
more difficult to detect the problem area or to try to repair irrelevant areas. \
Therefore, always follow
the procedures in the correct order and perform the DTC check.

A flow chart showing how to proceed with troubleshooting using the diagnostic trouble\
code (DTC)
check is shown the this page. This flow chart shows how to utilize the DTC check effectively. Then,
by carefully checking the results, this chart indicates how to proceed either to the DTC troubleshooting
or to the troubleshooting of the problem symptoms table.

SYMPTOM SIMULATION
HINT:
The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when no symptoms occurs. In such cases\
, a thorough customer
problem analysis must be carried out. Then the same or similar conditions and e\
nvironment in which the
problem occurred in the customer's vehicle should be simulated. No matter how much experience a techni-
cian has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without c\
onfirming the problem symptoms,
he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guess somewhere,
which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only o\
ccurs when the engine is cold,
or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during d\
riving, etc., the problem can never
be determined when the engine is hot or when the vehicles is at a standsti\
ll. Since vibration, heat or water
penetration (moisture) is a likely cause for the problem which is difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation
tests introduced here are effective measures in a point that the external causes are applied to the vehicle
in a stationary condition.
Important points in the symptom simulation test:
In the symptom simulation test, the problem symptoms should be confirmed, \
and the problem area or parts
must also be discovered. To do so, reduce the possible problem circuits according to the symptoms before
starting this type of test and have the hand±held tester connected beforehand\
. After that, carry out the symp-
tom simulation test, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective \
or normal and also confirming the
problem symptoms at the same time. Refer to the problem symptoms table of each system to narrow down
the possible causes of the symptom.
1. VIBRATION METHOD: When vibration seems to be
the major cause.
(a) PART AND SENSOR
(1) Apply slight vibration with your finger to the part ofthe sensor considered to be the problem cause and
check whether the malfunction occurs.
HINT:
Applying strong vibration to relays may result in open relays.
(b) CONNECTORS (1) Slightly shake the connector vertically and horizon-tally.
(c) WIRE HARNESS
(1) Slightly shake the wire harness vertically and hori-zontally.
The connector joint and fulcrum of the vibration are
the major areas that should be checked thoroughly.
2. HEAT METHOD: If the problem seems to occur when the area in question is heated.
(a) Heat the component that is the possible cause of the mal- function with a hair dryer or similar object. Check if the
malfunction occurs.
NOTICE:

Do not heat the components to more than 60 C
(140 F) (Temperature is limited to keep the compo-
nents from being damaged).

(3)Even in the case of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the horn button assembly, instrument panel passenger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner should be in\
spected
(See pages 60±19, 60±19 and 61±9).
(4)Never use the SRS related parts from another vehicle. When replacing the part\
s, replace them with new parts.
(5)Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if there is a possibility of sh\
ock during repairs.
(6)Never disassemble and repair the center airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor assembly, horn button assembly, instrument panel passenger airbag assembly, front seat airbag assembly,
curtain shield airbag assembly or seat belt pretensioner.
(7)If the center airbag sensor assembly, the side airbag sensor assembly, the horn button assembly, the instrument panel passenger airbag assembly have been dropped, or if the\
re are cracks,
dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector, replace them with new ones.
(8)Do not directly expose the airbag sensor assembly, the side airbag sensor assembly, the horn button assembly, the instrument panel passenger airbag assembly or the seat belt pretensioner
to hot air or flames.
(9)Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k
/V minimum) for troubleshooting electrical cir-
cuits.
(10)Information labels are attached to the SRS components. Follow the instru\
ctions on the notices.
(11)After work on the supplemental restraint system is completed, check the SRS w\
arning light (See page 05±1184)
(b)SPIRAL CABLE (in Combination Switch)(1)The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to thesteering column with the spiral cable at the neutral
position, otherwise cable disconnection and other
troubles may occur. Refer to page 60±26 of this
manual concerning the correct installation of the
steering wheel.
(c) HORN BUTTON ASSEMBLY (with Airbag) (1) When removing the horn button assembly or handling a new horn button, it sho\
uld be placed withthe top of the pad surface facing upward. Placing it with the pad surface facing downward may
lead to a serious accident if the airbag deploys for some reasons. Also, do \
not place anything
on top of the horn button.
(2) Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib (This may cause the airbag to inflate, which is very dangerous).
(3) Grease should not be applied to the horn button assembly, and the pad should not be cleaned with any type of detergent.
(4) Store the horn button assembly where the ambient temperature remains below 93
C (200
F),
without high humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5) When using electric welding, disconnect the airbag connector (4 yellow pins\
) under the steering column near the combination switch connector before starting work.
