WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, find out if the vehicle was in a collision. If so, verify that all the required components were replaced with new components, of the correct part number, and that they were properly installed. (See COMPONENT REPLACEMENT/INSPECTION AFTER DEPLOYMENT ).
Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, check the battery is sufficiently charged (see BATTERY TEST ). If the battery voltage is low, SRS indicator stays on.
Before replacing the SRS unit, check the SRS unit software version with the HDS. If the software version is not the latest, update the SRS unit software (see SRS UNIT UPDATE ) and retest.

Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Start the engine, and see if the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) also stays on
Does the MIL stay on longer than 30 seconds?

YES - Go to the PGM-FI system MIL Circuit Troubleshooting (see MIL CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).

NO - Go to step 3.
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (see DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES) ).
Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle. If it does not communicate, troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).
Check for DTCs with the HDS (see READING THE DTC ).
Are any SRS DTCs indicated?

YES - Do the SRS DTC troubleshooting.

NO - Go to step 8.
From the HDS Main Menu, select BODY ELECTRICAL, then select the desired MODE MENU.
Check for DTCs in the Gauge Menu with the HDS.
Is DTC B1187 indicated?

YES - Troubleshoot DTC B1187 (see DTC B1187: GAUGE CONTROL MODULE LOST COMMUNICATION WITH SRS UNIT (SRS MESSAGE) ). If the problem is still present, do the troubleshooting procedure for SRS DTCs A1-1x (see DTC A1-1X: ("X" CAN BE 0 THRU 9 OR A THRU F) FAULTY POWER SUPPLY (VA LINE) ) and A2-1x (see DTC A2-1X: ("X" CAN BE 0 THRU 9 OR A THRU F) FAULTY POWER SUPPLY (VB LINE) ). If the problem is still present, replace the SRS unit (see SRS UNIT REPLACEMENT ).

NO - Faulty gauge control module; replace the gauge control module (see GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT ).
