Inspection Procedure 2: Power supply circuit system
 
 

 
 
CIRCUIT OPERATION
To SRS-ECU, the power is supplied from IG1 relay of ETACS-ECU.
If the power is not supplied to SRS-ECU, the communication between scan tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly) and SRS-ECU cannot be established.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CASE:)
  • Damaged wiring harness or connector
  • Charging system failed
  • Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
  • Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Power supply fuse check.
Is the fuse in good condition?
Go to Step 3.
Go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. Check for a blown fuse.
(1) Replace the fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position, wait for at least one minute and then turn the switch off.
(3) Check the fuse.
Is the fuse in good condition?
Go to Step 3.
Repair the wiring harness between the C-417 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No. 5 and the C-126 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 22, and replace the power supply fuse (No.12).
 
STEP 3. Resistance measurement at the C-126 SRS-ECU connector.
(1) 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 connectors.

(2) Take the measurements below at the C-126 wiring harness side connectors.
  • Continuity between C-126 wiring harness side connector terminal No. 24 and body ground
OK: Continuity (Less than 2 ohms)
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Repair the wiring harness between C-126 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 24 and body ground.
 
STEP 4. Measure the voltage at the C-126 SRS-ECU connector.
(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) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Ignition switch: ON
(5) Take the measurements below at the C-126 harness side connector.
  • Voltage between terminal No. 22 and body ground
OK: 9 V or more
Is the measured voltage within the specified range?
Go to Step 6.
Go to Step 5.
 
STEP 5. Check the harness for open circuit between SRS-ECU connector C-126 and the ETACS-ECU connector C-417.
(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) Disconnect the ETACS-ECU connector C-417.
noteCheck joint connector C-04, and repair if necessary.
(4) Check for continuity between the following terminals. It should be less than 2 ohms.
  • SRS-ECU connector C-126 (terminal No.22) and the ETACS-ECU connector C-417 (terminal No.5)
Does continuity exist?
Replace the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A, ETACS-ECU ).
Repair the harness wire between SRS-ECU connector C-126 and the ETACS-ECU connector C-417.
 
STEP 6. Retest the system
Is the communication between scan tool and SRS-ECU possible?
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points -How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)
Replace SRS-ECU. (Refer to .)
