Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT CONNECTOR
Warning
•  Handling the component parts improperly can accidentally operate (deploy) the air bag module, which may seriously injure you. Read the service warnings/cautions and the workshop manual before handling the air bag system components.
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Remove the driver-side B-pillar lower trim. (See B-PILLAR LOWER TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector.
•  Inspect the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector. (Corrosion, damage, and disconnected pins)
•  Is there any malfunction of the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector?
Yes
Replace the malfunctioning part, then go to Step 6.
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Remove the column cover.
•  Disconnect the clock spring connector.
•  Remove the glove compartment.
•  Disconnect the passenger-side air bag module connector.
•  Disconnect the driver and passenger-side front seat connector.
•  Remove the passenger-side B-pillar lower trim.
•  Disconnect the passenger-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector.
•  Remove the headliner.
•  Disconnect the driver and passenger-side curtain air bag module connector.
•  Disconnect the all SAS control module connectors.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:
―  SAS control module terminal 2D (Type A)/2AB (Type B)
―  SAS control module terminal 2A (Type A)/2Z(Type B)
Note
•  Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt terminal.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
Go to Step 6.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt and SAS control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  Driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt terminal A—SAS control module terminal 2D (Type A)/2AB (Type B)
―  Driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt terminal B—SAS control module terminal 2A (Type A)/2Z (Type B)
Note
•  Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt terminal.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
•  Replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.
Go to Step 6.
4
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY
•  Driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt and SAS control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Measure the voltage at the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  SAS control module terminal 2D (Type A)/2AB (Type B)
―  SAS control module terminal 2A (Type A)/2Z (Type B)
Note
•  Measure the voltage while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt.
•  Is the voltage 0 V?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt terminal.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to power supply.
•  Replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Replace the wiring harness which has a short to power supply.
Go to Step 6.
5
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more.
•  Connect the SAS control module connectors.
•  Except for the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector, reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Connect the SST (Fuel and thermometer checker) or apply 2 ohms resistance to the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector terminals A and B.
•  Set the SST (Fuel and thermometer checker) to 2 ohms.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Clear the DTC for the SAS control module using the M-MDS.
•  Perform the DTC inspection for the SAS control module using the M-MDS.
•  Are the same DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt.
Then go to the next step.
6
PERFORM SAS CONTROL MODULE DTC INSPECTION
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more.
•  Disconnect the SST (Fuel and thermometer checker) or the 2 ohms resistance.
•  Connect the driver-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Clear the DTC for the SAS control module using the M-MDS.
•  Perform the DTC inspection for the SAS control module using the M-MDS.
•  Are the same DTCs present?
Yes
Replace the SAS control module.
No
