PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Damaged wiring harnesses of connectors
  • Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
  • Malfunction of the combination meter

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Check the SRS warning lamp.


(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2)Disconnected the SRS-ECU connector C-131.
(3)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

Go to Step 3.

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the harness for short circuit to earth between ignition switch connector C-307 (terminal No.2) and combination meter C-113 (terminal No.18) and between combination meter C-112 (terminal No.36) and SRS-ECU connector C-131 (terminal No.18).










note Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check junction connector C-132, C-207, C-208 and repair if necessary.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Replace the combination meter (Refer to GROUP 54A, Combination Meters Assembly ).

Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-131 (terminal No.8) and ignition switch connector C-307 (terminal No.2).

STEP 3. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Q. Is diagnosis code B1551 set?

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
An intermittent malfunction is suspected (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
