components. Modifications can adversely
affect air bag system performance and
lead to injury.
•Ifthevehiclewillbeexposedto
temperatures over 93 C (200 F) (for
example, during a paint baking process),
remove the air bag system components
beforehand to avoid component damage
or unintended air bag system activation.
Diagnosis
• When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to
follow “Diagnosis” in Air Bag System section.
Bypassing these procedures may result in extended
diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect
parts replacement.
• Never use electrical test equipment other than that
specified.
WARNING:
Never attempt to measure the resistance of
the air bag (inflator) modules (driver,
passenger, side and curtain) and seat belt
pretensioners (driver and passenger). It is
very dangerous as the electric current from
the tester may deploy the air bag or activate
the pretensioner.

Precautions: 00-2
Servicing and Handling
WARNING:
Many of service procedures require
disconnection of “A/BAG” fuse and all air
bag (inflator) module(s) from initiator circuit
to avoid an accidental deployment.
Driver, Passenger, Side and Curtain Air Bag
(Inflator) Modules
•Forhandlingandstorageofaliveairbag
(inflator) module, select a place where the
ambient temperature below 65 C (150 F),
without high humidity and away from
electric noise.
•Whencarryingaliveairbag(inflator)
module, make sure the bag opening is
pointed away from you. In case of an
accidental deployment, the bag will then
deploy with minimal chance of injury.
Never carry the air bag (inflator) module by
the wires or connector on the underside of
the module. When placing a live air bag
(inflator) module on a bench or other
surface, always face the bag up, away from
the surface. As the live passenger air bag
(inflator) module must be placed with its
bag (trim cover) facing up, place it on the
workbench with a slit (1) or use the
workbench vise (2) to hold it securely at its
lower mounting bracket (3). It is also
prohibited to place anything on top of the
trim cover and stack air bag (inflator)
modules. This is necessary so that a free
space is provided to allow the air bag to
expand in the unlikely event of accidental
deployment. Otherwise, personal injury
may result.
•Neverdisposeoflive(undeployed)airbag
(inflator) modules (driver, passenger, side
and curtain). If disposal is necessary, be
sure to deploy them according to
deployment procedures described in “Air
Bag (Inflator) Module and Seat Belt
Pretensioner Disposal: in Section 8B”
before disposal.
•Theairbag(inflator)module immediately
after deployment is very hot. Wait for at
least half an hour to cool it off before
proceeding the work.
•Afteranairbag(inflator)modulehasbeen
deployed, the surface of the air bag may
contain a powdery residue. This powder
consists primarily of cornstarch (used to
lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by-
products of the chemical reaction. As with
many service procedures, gloves and
safety glasses should be worn.
[A]: Always carry air bag (inflator) module with trim cover (air bag opening)
away from body.
[B]: Always place air bag (inflator) module on workbench with trim cover (air
bag opening) up, away from loose objects.

and away from electric noise.
•Duringserviceprocedures,beverycareful
when handling a Sensing and Diagnostic
Module (SDM). Never strike or jar the SDM.
•Neverpoweruptheairbagsystemwhen
the SDM is not rigidly attached to the
vehicle. All SDM and mounting bracket
fasteners must be carefully torqued and
the arrow must be pointing toward the
front of the vehicle to ensure proper
operation of the air bag system.
The SDM could be activated when powered
while not rigidly attached to the vehicle
which could cause deployment and result
in personal injury.
WARNING:
Driver and Passenger Seat Belt
Pretensioners
•Forhandlingandstorageofaliveseatbelt

electric noise.
•Nevercarryseatbeltpretensionerbywire
or connector of pretensioner. When
placing a live seat belt pretensioner on the
workbench or some place like that, never
put something on seat belt pretensioner.
Otherwise, personal injury may result.
•Neverdisposeoflive(inactivated)seatbelt
pretensioners (drive and passenger). If
disposal is necessary, be sure to activate
them according to activation procedures
described in “Air Bag (Inflator) Module and
Seat Belt Pretensioner Disposal: in
Section 8B” before disposal.
•Theseatbeltpretensionerimmediately
after activation is very hot. Wait for at least
half an hour to cool it off before
proceeding the work.
•Withmanyserviceprocedures,glovesand
safety glasses should be worn to prevent
any possible irritation of the skin or eyes.
•Evenwhentheaccidentwaslightenoughnotto
cause air bags to activate, be sure to inspect system
parts and other related parts according to instructions
under “Repair and Inspection Required after Accident:
in Section 8B”.
•Whenservicingpartsotherthanairbagsystem,if
shocks may be applied to air bag system component
parts, remove those parts beforehand.
•Whenhandlingtheairbag(inflator)modules(driver,
passenger, side and curtain), seat belt pretensioners

it.
• Never connect an ohmmeter to electronic control unit
with its coupler connected to it. Attempt to do it may
cause damage to electronic control unit and sensors.
•Besuretouseaspecifiedvoltmeter/ohmmeter.
Otherwise, accurate measurements may not be
obtained or personal injury may result. If not specified,
use a voltmeter with high impedance (M /V
minimum) or a digital type voltmeter.
•Whentakingmeasurementsatelectricalconnectors
using a tester probe, be sure to insert the probe (2)
from the wire harness side (backside) of the
connector (1).
•Whenconnectingmeterprobe(2)fromterminalside
of coupler (1) because it can’t be connected from
harness side, use extra care not to bend male
terminal of coupler of force its female terminal open
for connection.
In case of such coupler as shown connect probe as
shown to avoid opening female terminal.
Never connect probe where male terminal is
supposed to fit.
•Whencheckingconnectionof terminals, check its
male half for bend and female half for excessive
opening and both for locking (looseness), corrosion,
dust, etc.
• Before measuring voltage at each terminal, check to
make sure that battery voltage is 11 V or higher. Such
terminal voltage check at low battery voltage will lead
to erroneous diagnosis.

result.
Wheels and Tires Caution
S4RS0A0000012
CAUTION:
All wheel fasteners are important attaching
parts in that they could affect the
performance of vital parts and systems, and/
or could result in major repair expense. They
must be replaced with one of the same part
number or with an equivalent part if
replacement becomes necessary. Do not use
a replacement part of lesser quality or
substitute design. Torque values must be
used as specified during reassembly to
assure proper retention of all parts.
There is to be no welding as it may result in
extensive damage and weakening of the
metal.

Electrical Circuit Inspection Procedure
S4RS0A0006001
While there are various electrical circuit inspection
methods, described here is a general method to check
its open and short circuit by using an ohmmeter and a
voltmeter.
Open Circuit Check
Possible causes for the open circuit are as follows. As
the cause is in the connector or terminal in many cases,
they need to be checked particularly carefully.
•Looseconnectionofconnector
• Poor contact of terminal (due to dirt, corrosion or rust
on it, poor contact tension, entry of foreign object etc.)
•Wireharnessbeingopen
When checking system circuits including an electronic
control unit such as ECM, TCM, ABS control module,
etc., it is important to perform careful check, starting with
items which are easier to check.
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable from battery
2) Check each connector at both ends of the circuit
being checked for loose connection. Also check lock
condition of connector if equipped with connector
lock.
3) Using a test male terminal, check both terminals of
the circuit being checked for contact tension of its
female terminal. Check each terminal visually for
poor contact (possibly caused by dirt, corrosion, rust
entry of foreign object, etc.). At the same time, check
to make sure that each terminal is locked in the
connector fully.
4) Using continuity check or voltage check the following
procedure, check the wire harness for open circuit
and poor connection with its terminals. Locate
abnormality, if any.
Continuity Check
1) Measure resistance between connector terminals at
both ends of the circuit being checked (between “A-
1” and “C-1” in the figure). If no continuity is indicated
(infinity or over limit), that means that the circuit is
open between terminals “A-1” and “C-1”.

00-11 Precautions:
2) Disconnect the connector included in the circuit
(connector-B in the figure) and measure resistance
between terminals “A-1” and “B-1”.
If no continuity is indicated, that means that the
circuit is open between terminals “A-1” and “B-1”. If
continuity is indicated, there is an open circuit
between terminals “B-1” and “C-1” or an abnormality
in connector-B.
Voltage Check
If voltage is supplied to the circuit being checked, voltage
check can be used as circuit check.
1) With all connectors connected and voltage applied to
the circuit being checked, measure voltage between
each terminal and body ground.
a) If measurements were taken as shown in the
figure and results were as listed in the following,
it means that the circuit is open between
terminals “B-1” and “A-1”.
Voltage between
“C-1” and body ground: Approx. 5 V
“B-1” and body ground: Approx. 5 V
“A-1” and body ground: 0 V
b) Also, if measured values were as listed in the
following, it means that there is a resistance
(abnormality) of such level that corresponds to
the voltage drop in the circuit between terminals
“A-1” and “B-1”.
Voltage between
“C-1” and body ground: Approx. 5 V
“B-1” and body ground: Approx. 5 V
“A-1” and body ground: Approx. 3 V
Short Circuit Check (Wire Harness to Ground)
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Disconnect connectors at both ends of the circuit to
be checked.
NOTE:
If the circuit to be checked is connected to
other parts (1), disconnect all connectors of
those parts.
Otherwise, diagnosis will be misled.
3) Measure resistance between terminal at one end of
circuit (“A-1” terminal in the figure) and body ground.
If continuity is indicated, it means that there is a short
to ground between terminals “A-1” and “C-1” of the
circuit.

Precautions: 00-12
4) Disconnect the connector included in circuit
(connector-B) and measure resistance between “A-
1” and body ground. If continuity is indicated, it
means that the circuit is shorted to the ground
between terminals “A-1” and “B-1”.
Intermittent and Poor Connection Inspection
S4RS0A0006002
Most intermittent are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring, although a sticking relay or
solenoid can occasionally be at fault. When checking it
for proper connection, perform careful check of suspect
circuits for:
•Poormatingofconnectorhalves,orterminalsnotfully
seated in the connector body (backed out).
•Dirtorcorrosionontheterminals.Theterminalsmust
be clean and free of any foreign material which could
impede proper terminal contact. However, cleaning
the terminal with a sand paper or the like is prohibited.
•Damagedconnectorbody,exposingtheterminalsto
moisture and dirt, as well as not maintaining proper
terminal orientation with the component or mating
connector.
•Improperlyformedordamagedterminals.
Check each connector terminal in problem circuits
carefully to ensure good contact tension by using the
corresponding mating terminal.
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase
contact tension or replace.

00-13 Precautions:
•Poorterminal-to-wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor
connection by shaking it by hand lightly. If any
abnormal condition is found, repair or replace.
•Wireinsulationwhichisrubbedthrough,causingan
intermittent short as the bare area touches other
wiring or parts of the vehicle.
•Wiringbrokeninsidetheinsulation. This condition
could cause continuity check to show a good circuit,
but if only 1 or 2 strands of a multi-strand-type wire
are intact, resistance could be far too high.
If any abnormality is found, repair or replace.
