Disconnect the connector (AB3) from the airbag control module.

Connect the connector (1R) in test harness R to connector (AB3).

Connect the battery ground cable and turn the ignition switch to ON.

Measure the voltage between connector (2R) in test harness R and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(2R) No. 1 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

Is the voltage more than 10 V?

Yes

Replace the airbag control module.


No


CHECK AIRBAG MAIN HARNESS.

While checking control module, turn the ignition switch to OFF and disconnect the battery ground cable. Wait more than 20 seconds before operation.

Disconnect the airbag connector (AB1) from the body harness (B31).

Measure the following resistance with the above-mentioned condition maintained.

Connector & terminal

(5M) No. 2 — Chassis ground: (2R) No. 1 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance more than 1 MΩ?

Yes


No

Replace the body harness with airbag main harness.


CHECK FUSE NO. 11 (IN JOINT BOX).

Confirm that the ignition switch is turned OFF.

Remove the fuse No. 11 (in joint box) and perform visual inspection.
