Inspection Procedure 4: The SRS warning light does not go out.
 
 
 
 
CIRCUIT OPERATION
  • The SRS warning light illuminates when the electric motor switch is turned to the ON position and goes out after approximately 6 to 8 seconds if there is not a malfunction in the SRS system.
  • SRS-ECU sends the SRS warning light signal to the combination meter via the CAN communication.
  • As a cause, the failure of CAN bus line, combination meter, or SRS-ECU is suspected.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • Damaged wiring harness and connectors
  • Combination meter malfunction
  • Malfunction of SRS-ECU
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), diagnose the CAN bus line.
(1)
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "How to connect the scan tool ."
(2) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C, Diagnosis ).
 
STEP 2. Recheck of the SRS warning light
(1) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Electric motor switch: ON
Does the SRS warning light illuminate for approximately 6 to 8 seconds and then go out after turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch?
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Go to Step 3.
 
STEP 3. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), actuator test.
Use scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) to perform the combination meter actuator tests.
Item No.07: Indicator1
Does the SRS warning light turn on and off normally?
Go to Step 4.
Replace the combination meter (Refer to GROUP 54A - Combination Meter ).
 
STEP 4. Check for DTC.
After erasing the DTC memory, check the DTC.
Is the DTC set?
Troubleshoot for the relevant DTC (Refer to ).
Go to Step 5.
 
STEP 5. Recheck of the SRS warning light
Does the light stay ON?
Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
This diagnosis is complete.
