NOTE: 

Before doing this troubleshooting procedure: 

Before replacing the SRS unit: 

DTC Description DTC
B0010-1A Decreased resistance in the front passenger's airbag first inflator  
B0011-1A Decreased resistance in the front passenger's airbag second inflator  

DTC (SRS)

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.

    - 2. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, then wait for 10 seconds.

    - 3. Check for DTCs with the HDS.

    DTC Description DTC
    B0010-1A Decreased resistance in the front passenger's airbag first inflator  
    B0011-1A Decreased resistance in the front passenger's airbag second inflator  

    Is DTC B0010-1A or B0011-1A indicated?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the SRS . If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot the DTC.

    - 6. Connect the terminals of SRS simulator lead J to the SRS inflator simulator (2 Ω connectors), then connect SRS simulator lead J to the front passenger's airbag inflator 4P connector on the dashboard wire harness.

    - 7. Reconnect the negative cable to the 12 volt battery.

    - 8. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.

    - 9. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, then wait for 10 seconds.

    B0011-1A Decreased resistance in the front passenger's airbag second inflator  

    Is DTC B0010-1A or B0011-1A indicated?

    YES 

    Go to step 3.

    NO 

    Short to another wire in the front passenger's airbag first or second inflator; replace the front passenger's airbag , then clear the DTC.

  3. Shorted wire check (RA1+ line to RA1- line, RA2+ line to RA2- line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Disconnect the negative cable from the 12 volt battery, then wait at least 3 minutes.

    - 3. Disconnect the following connector.

    SRS unit connector A (39P)

    - 4. Disconnect the SRS inflator simulator from SRS simulator lead J. Do not disconnect SRS simulator lead J from the front passenger's airbag inflator 4P connector on the dashboard wire harness.

    - 5. Connect the SRS short cancellers to SRS unit connector A (39P) terminals No. 2 and No. 3, and terminals No. 6 and No. 7.

    - 6. Measure the resistance of the test points.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
    Front passenger's airbag inflator 4P connector (on the dashboard wire harness): disconnected
    SRS unit connector A (39P): disconnected
    Front passenger's airbag inflator 4P connector (on the dashboard wire harness): connected to SRS simulator lead J
    SRS unit connector A (39P) No. 2 and No. 3: connected to SRS short canceller
