Step	Inspection		Action
1	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR Switch the ignition off. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait for 1 min or more. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Remove the front bumper. (See FRONT BUMPER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Verify that the passenger-side crash zone sensor is correctly installed. (See CRASH ZONE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC. ].) Is the passenger-side crash zone sensor correctly installed?	Yes	Go to the next step.
1		No	Correctly install the passenger-side crash zone sensor. (See CRASH ZONE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC. ].) Then go to Step 7.
2	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CONNECTOR Disconnect the passenger-side crash zone sensor connector. (See CRASH ZONE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC. ].) Inspect the passenger-side crash zone sensor connector (wiring harness-side). (Corrosion, damage, and disconnected pins) Is there any malfunction of the passenger-side crash zone sensor connector (wiring harness-side)?	Yes	Replace the malfunction part, then go to step 7.
2		No	Go to the next step.
3	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND Remove the column cover. (See COLUMN COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the clock spring connector. (See CLOCK SPRING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Remove the glove compartment. (See GLOVE COMPARTMENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the passenger-side air bag module connectors. (See PASSENGER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side front seat connectors. (See FRONT SEAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Remove the B-pillar lower trim. (See B-PILLAR LOWER TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side pre-tensioner seat belt connectors. (See FRONT SEAT BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side lap pre-tensioner seat belt connectors. (See FRONT SEAT BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Remove the headliner. (See HEADLINER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side curtain air bag module connectors. (See CURTAIN AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Disconnect the all SAS control module connectors. (See SAS CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground: SAS control module terminal 2L SAS control module terminal 2H NOTE: Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and passenger-side crash zone sensor. 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 passenger-side crash zone sensor 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 7.
3		No	Go to the next step.
4	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Passenger-side crash zone sensor and SAS control module connectors are disconnected. Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side): Passenger-side crash zone sensor terminal A-SAS control module terminal 2L Passenger-side crash zone sensor terminal B-SAS control module terminal 2H NOTE: Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and passenger-side crash zone sensor. Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
4		No	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and passenger-side crash zone sensor 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 7.
5	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO OTHER AIR BAG SENSOR CIRCUITS Passenger-side crash zone sensor and SAS control module connectors are disconnected. Disconnect the driver-side crash zone sensor connector. (See CRASH ZONE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC. ].) Remove the driver and passenger-side B-pillar lower trim. (See B-PILLAR LOWER TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side side air bag sensor connectors. (See SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Remove the driver and passenger-side front door trim. (See FRONT DOOR TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Disconnect the driver and passenger-side pressure sensor connectors. (See PRESSURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .) Refer to the wiring diagram and inspect for continuity between the passenger-side crash zone sensor terminals and other air bag sensor terminals (wiring harness-side). NOTE: Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and passenger-side crash zone sensor. Is there continuity?	Yes	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between passenger-side crash zone sensor terminal and other air bag sensor 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 other air bag sensor circuits. Replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: Replace the wiring harness which has a short to other air bag sensor circuits. Go to Step 7.
5		No	Go to the next step.
6	INSPECT PASSENGER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY Passenger-side crash zone sensor and SAS control module connectors are disconnected. Connect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on). Measure the voltage at the following terminals (wiring harness-side): SAS control module terminal 2L SAS control module terminal 2H NOTE: Measure the voltage while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and passenger-side crash zone sensor. Is the voltage 0 V?	Yes	Replace the passenger-side crash zone sensor, then go to the next step. (See CRASH ZONE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC. ].)
6		No	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and passenger-side crash zone sensor 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 the next step.
7	PERFORM SAS CONTROL MODULE DTC INSPECTION Switch the ignition off. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait for 1 min or more. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Connect the SAS control module connectors. Reconnect all disconnected connectors. Connect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on). Clear the DTC for the SAS control module using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC [SAS CONTROL MODULE (TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.)] .) Perform the DTC inspection for the SAS control module using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION [SAS CONTROL MODULE (TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.)] .) Are the same DTCs present?	Yes	Repeat the inspection from Step 1. If the malfunction recurs, replace the SAS control module. (See SAS CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM - US/CANADA SPEC.] .)
7		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
