STEP 4. Check the passenger's (front) air bag module circuit. Measure the resistance at the SRS-ECU connector C-126.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the harness side connector, turn the lock lever to the direction of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the C-126 SRS-ECU connector.
(3) danger | To prevent the air bag from deploying unintentionally, disconnect the passenger’s (front) air bag module connector C-114 to short the squib circuit. |
(4) Slide the outer housing of harness side connector in the arrow direction shown, and disconnect the C-114 harness side connector.
(5) caution | Insert an insulator such as a cable tie to a depth of 4 mm (0.16 inch) or more, otherwise the short spring will not be released. |
Insert a cable tie [3 mm (0.12 inch) wide, 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) thick] between terminals 7 and 8 <1st squib> or 9 and 10 <2nd squib>, and the short spring to release the short spring.
(6) Check for continuity between C-126 harness side connector terminals 7 and 8 <1st squib> or 9 and 10<2nd squib>, and body ground.It should be an open circuit.
Is it open circuit?
Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1412 <1st squib> B1492 <2nd squib> sets, replace the SRS-ECU. (Refer to ). Go to Step 6. Go to Step 5.
