SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
DANGER
The SRS-ECU adopts the rollover specification that the curtain airbag and seat belt
pre-tensioner operate at the occurrence of
rollover. Therefore, do not tilt the vehicle to
the right and left with the IG ON or tilt the
SRS-ECU to the right and left with the IG ON
and the harness installed.
.
WARNING
Improper service could result in serious

injury of the service personnel or the passenger.
.
The SRS is designed to supplement the front seat

belts. It reduces injury to the driver(s) and the front
passenger(s) by deploying air bag(s) in case of a
frontal collision. In addition, the side-airbag and curtain air bag inflate upon a side collision to reduce the
risk of passenger injuries.
The SRS front air bags from an advanced air bag
system together with sensors at the vehicle and sensors attached to front seats.
.
Side-airbag systems in the front seats are activated

when side impacts exceed a criteria to protect the
occupants upper bodies.
.
The curtain airbag system operates together with the

side-airbag to protect the heads of passengers in the
front and second seats.
.
The seat belts with pre-tensioner work simultaneously with the SRS. The seat belt incorporating the
pre-tensioner automatically winds the seat belt upon
front impact to reduce forward shifting of the drivers
and passengers. The seat belt use status is used to
control the activation and deactivation of the pre-tensioner.
.
TSB Revision
52B-3
M1524000102491
The SRS consists of air bag modules, SRS air bag

control unit (SRS-ECU), front impact sensors, side
impact sensors, SRS warning light, passengers air
bag OFF indicator light, passengers seat belt warning light, clock spring, seat belt pre-tensioner, seat
belt switch, seat slide sensor, weight sensor and
occupant classification-ECU. Air bag modules are
located in the center of the steering wheel and above
the glove box. Knee air bag is installed under the column cover. Side-airbags are located inside the front
seatback assemblies. The curtain air bag module
consists of an air bag, an inflator, and the fixing gear
relating to those parts, and is installed in the roof side
sections (from the driver's and the passenger's front
pillars to the rear pillars). Each air bag consists of a
folded air bag and an inflator unit. The SRS-ECU
placed on the forefront of the floor monitors the system and has a front air bag safing G-sensor, front air
bag analog G-sensor and a side-airbag safing
G-sensor. The front impact sensor is assembled in
the front end upper bar to monitor impact in case of
front impact. The side impact sensors inside the center pillars and the rear quarter panel monitor the
shock incurred by the sides of the vehicle. The SRS
warning light on the combination meter indicates the
operational status of the SRS. The clock spring is
installed in the steering column. The seat belt
pre-tensioner is built into the driver's and passenger's front seat belt retractor. The seat slide sensor is
installed at the seat adjuster section of the driver
seat in order to detect the driver seat slide position.
The weight sensor is installed underneath a rail of
the passenger seat to detect the load on the seat.
The passengers air bag OFF indicator light is
installed to the lower left of the center panel, and illuminates when the passenger seat airbag is inactive.
The passengers seat belt warning light is installed to
the lower right of the center panel, and illuminates
when the passenger is not wearing the seat belt. The
seat belt switch detects whether the seat belt is
used.
Only authorized service personnel should do work on
or around the SRS components. Those service personnel should read this manual carefully before starting any such work.
52B-4

GENERAL INFORMATION
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT

FUNCTION
<Meter>
SRS warning light
AC905530 AB
The SRS-ECU monitors the SRS system and stores data concerning any detected faults in the system. When the ignition
switch is in "ON" position, the SRS warning light, passengers
air bag OFF indicator light and passengers seat belt warning
light should illuminate for about seven seconds and then turn
"OFF." That indicates that the SRS system is in operational
order. If the SRS warning light does any of the following, the
immediate inspection by an authorized dealer is needed:
1. The SRS warning light does not illuminate as described
above.
2. The SRS warning light stays on for more than seven
seconds.
3. The SRS warning light illuminates while driving.
If a vehicle's SRS warning light is in any of these three conditions, the SRS system must be inspected, diagnosed and serviced in accordance with this manual.

This mechanism prevents the improper deployment

of air bag module because of the current application
to the squib due to the static electricity when connectors between SRS-ECU and air bag modules
(squibs) are disconnected. When the connector is
disconnected, the short spring short circuits the
power supply side terminal and ground side terminal
of squibs, and prevents the static electricity from
generating the potential difference. This connector
mechanism is adopted for the following connectors.

accidental deployment of the air bag during servicing, read and carefully follow all the precautions
and procedures described in this manual.
After disconnecting the battery cable, wait 60 seconds or more before proceeding with the following
work. The SRS system is designed to retain
enough voltage to deploy the air bag for a short
time even after the battery has been disconnected,
so serious injury may result from unintended air
bag deployment if work is done on the SRS system
immediately after the battery cables are disconnected.
The SRS-ECU adopts the rollover specification
that the curtain airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner
operate at the occurrence of rollover. Therefore, do
not tilt the vehicle to the right and left with the IG
ON or tilt the SRS-ECU to the right and left with the
IG ON and the harness installed.
WARNING
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS

bag modules and seat belt pre-tensioners, may
contain perchlorate materials. Special handling
may apply. For additional information, see
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Do not use any electrical test equipment on or near
the SRS components, except those specified on
P.52B-357.
Never Attempt to Repair the Following Components: SRS-ECU, Clock Spring, Air Bag Module,
Front impact sensor, Side Impact Sensor, Seat Belt
with Pre-tensioner, Seat slide sensor, Front seat
assembly. If any of these components are diagnosed as faulty, they should only be replaced, in

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS
52B-27

INTRODUCTION TO DIAGNOSIS
The SRS system is controlled by the SRS-ECU. The
SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by detecting signals from the left and right front impact sensors and side impact sensors, front air bag analog
G-sensor and front air bag safing G-sensor and
side-airbag safing G-sensor. If the impact is over a
predetermined level, the SRS-ECU sends an ignition
signal. At this time, if the safing G-sensor is on, the
SRS air bag will inflate. (The passenger's air bag
may not inflate according to the occupant detection
data from the occupant classification-ECU.) The
TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY
Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will be sure that you
have exhausted all of the possible ways to find a
SRS fault.
1. Gather information about the problem from the
customer.
2. Verify that the condition described by the
customer exists.
3. Check the vehicle for any SRS diagnostic trouble
codes (SRS DTC).
4. If you cannot verify the condition but there are no
SRS DTCs, the malfunction is intermittent. Refer
to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting
Inspection Service Points How to Cope with
Intermittent Malfunctions P.00-15.
DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
M1524005000534
SRS warning light in the combination meter alerts a

malfunction of the SRS system. If the following
symptoms occur even when the vehicle has not been
in a collision, there may be a malfunction in the SRS
system.
The SRS warning light does not go off within
approximately seven seconds after the ignition
switch has been turned to the "ON" position.
The SRS warning light does not illuminate when
the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position.
Refer to Post-collision Diagnosis when inspecting
and servicing a vehicle that has been in a collision
(Refer to P.52B-358).
M1524003100933
5. If there is a SRS DTC, record the code number,

then erase the code from vehicle memory using
scan tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly) MB991958.
6. Recreate the SRS DTC set conditions to see if the
same SRS DTC will be set again.
If the same SRS DTC is set again, follow the
Inspection Chart for the DTC and find the fault.
If you cannot get the same SRS DTC to be set
again, the malfunction is intermittent. Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting
Inspection Service Points How to Cope with
Intermittent Malfunctions P.00-15.

The freeze frame data can be checked by using the
scan tool (GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction P.00-15).
When detecting fault and storing the DTC, the ECU

connected to CAN bus line obtains the data before
the determination of the DTC and the data when the
DTC is determined, and then stores the ECU status
of that time. By analyzing each data from scan tool,
the troubleshooting can be performed more efficiently. The displayed items are as the table below.

CAUTION
If DTC B1400 <1st squib> or B1480 <2nd
squib> is set in the SRS-ECU, always diagnose the CAN bus lines.
When DTC B1400 is set in the following diagnosis, check the 1st squib circuit. When DTC
B1480 is set, check the 2nd squib circuit.
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is
by detecting signals from the front impact sensors
and the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the
impact is over a predetermined level, the
SRS-ECU sends an ignition signal. At this time, if
the front air bag safing G-sensor is on, the SRS
air bag will inflate.
The ignition signal is input to the air bag module
via the clock spring to inflate the air bag.
.
DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance
between the input terminals of the driver's air bag
module (squib). The most likely causes for this
code to be set are the followings:
52B-39
Short circuit in drivers air bag module (squib)

or harness
Short circuit in the clock spring
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Improper engaged connector or defective short
spring*
Short circuit in the clock spring
Short circuit between the driver's air bag module
(squib) circuit terminals
Damaged connector(s)
Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
NOTE: *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a
"short" spring (which prevents the air bag from
deploying unintentionally due to static electricity by
shorting the positive wire to the ground wire in the
squib circuit when the connectors are disconnected).
Therefore, if connector C-126, C-303/C-316 or C-313
is damaged or improperly engaged, the short spring
may not be released when the connector is connected.
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus
line.
CAUTION
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the
scan tool P.52B-27."
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C,
Diagnosis P.54C-16).
TSB Revision
52B-40

STEP 2. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.

Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
Q: Is the DTC set?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor
engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
STEP 3. Check SRS-ECU connector C-126, drivers air bag
module connector C-303/C-316 and clock spring connector
C-313.
(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. After disconnecting
the C-126 SRS-ECU connector, connect it again.

(6) Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check the
diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC B1400 <1st squib> or B1480 <2nd squib> set?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : The procedure is complete. It is assumed that DTC
B1400 <1st squib> or B1480 <2nd squib> set
because connector C-126, C-303/C-316 or C-313
was engaged improperly.

The front impact sensor includes an analog G sensor

and CPU, etc. The CPU monitors the analog G sensor output signal. If the CPU judges that the front air
bags should be deployed, it sends a fire signal to the
SRS-ECU to deploy the front air bags. In addition,
the CPU diagnoses the internal components of the
front impact sensor. If a malfunction occurs, it
requests the SRS-ECU to set a diagnostic trouble
code.

FUNCTION
The SRS-ECU will set DTC B223B when component(s) other than those coded in the ECU is connected to the ECU.
TROUBLE JUDGEMENT
This code will be set when the coded components do
not correspond to the vehicle specification.(the components to be checked are squib, impact sensor and
passenger's airbag cutoff switch).Furthermore, this
code will also be set when the front and side impact
sensors are interchanged.
