DTC 35: Right-Side Air Bag Sensor System Malfunction

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: On models equipped without side air bags, DTCs 22, 25, 26, 32, 35, or 37 may be indicated concurrently. Diagnose the problem using the smallest DTC only.
  1. Before proceeding, see AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS . On models equipped without side air bags, go to step  5. On models equipped with side air bags, go to next step.
  2. Disable air bag system. See DISABLING SYSTEM  under DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM. Access and disconnect all SAS control module connectors. See SAS CONTROL MODULE  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Access and disconnect right-side air bag sensor. See SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Check wiring harness between SAS control module connector terminal 1L and right-side air bag sensor connector terminal "A" (Blue wire), and between SAS control module connector terminal 1J and right-side air bag sensor connector terminal "B" (Blue/Yellow wire), between SAS control module connector terminal 1H and right-side air bag sensor connector terminal "C" (Blue/White wire), and between SAS control module connector terminal 1G and right-side air bag sensor connector terminal "D" (Light Green wire) for short to ground, short to power supply or an open circuit. See Figure & Figure . If wiring harness is okay and DTC 32 was retrieved as a present malfunction DTC, go to next step. If wiring harness is okay and DTC 32 was retrieved as a past malfunction DTC, replace right air bag sensor and go to step  6. If wiring harness is not okay, replace air bag wiring harness and go to step  6.
  3. Measure resistance between right air bag sensor connector terminals, "C" and "D". See Figure. If resistance is about 1000 ohms, replace SAS control module and go to next step. If resistance is not about 1000 ohms, replace right-side air bag sensor and go to step  6. See SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
  4. Reconnect connectors to SAS control module, right-side air bag sensor, clockspring, passenger-side air bag module, driver- and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners and right- and left-side air bag modules. Reconnect negative battery cable and turn ignition switch to on position. If DTC 35 is indicated, replace right-side air bag sensor and go to step  6. If DTC 35 is not indicated, go to step  6.
  5. Disable air bag system. See DISABLING SYSTEM  under DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM. Access SAS control module and disconnect all connectors. See SAS CONTROL MODULE  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Check air bag wiring harness between ground and SAS connector terminal 2AA (Gray wire) for short to power supply or open circuit. See Figure. If wiring harness is okay and DTC 22 was retrieved as a present malfunction DTC, replace SAS control module and go to next step. If wiring harness is okay and DTC 22 was retrieved as a past malfunction DTC, go to next step. If wiring harness is not okay, replace air bag wiring harness and go to next step.
  6. Disconnect negative battery cable. Reconnect all connectors and install previously removed components. Reconnect negative battery cable. Clear past malfunction DTCs. See CLEARING PAST MALFUNCTION DTCS  under DIAGNOSTICS. Perform system operation check. See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK . If AIR BAG warning light operates normally, trouble shooting is complete. If AIR BAG warning light does not operate normally, reconfirm malfunction symptoms.
