Inspection Procedure
HINT:
- Perform the simulation method by selecting CHECK MODE (signal check) with the Techstream (See CHECK MODE PROCEDURE ).
- After selecting CHECK MODE (signal check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough road (See DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM ).
- CHECK STEERING PAD (DRIVER SIDE SQUIB)
SST 09843-18060
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad.
- Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector E (orange connector).CAUTION: Never connect a tester to the steering pad (driver side squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.NOTE:
- Do not forcibly insert the SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
- Insert the SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch on and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Check the DTCs (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
OK: DTC B1800, B1801, B1802, B1803 and 51 are not output.
HINT:
DTCs other than DTC B1800, B1801, B1802, B1803 and 51 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
OK: REPLACE STEERING PAD
NG: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK CONNECTOR
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Disconnect the SST from connector E.
- Check that the spiral cable connectors (on the steering pad side) are not damaged.
OK: The lock button is not disengaged and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.
NG: REPLACE SPIRAL CABLE
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK DRIVER SIDE SQUIB CIRCUIT
- Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor assembly and steering pad.
- Check for short to B+ in the circuit.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on
- Measure the voltage.

TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition W1-1 (D+) - Body ground Ignition switch on Below 1 V W1-2 (D-) - Body ground Ignition switch on Below 1 V
- Check for open in the circuit.
- Check for short to ground in the circuit.
- Check for short in the circuit.
- Release the activation prevention mechanism built into connector B (See DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM ).
- Measure the resistance.

NG: Go to step 5
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
- Connect the connectors to the steering pad and the center airbag sensor assembly.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch on and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Check the DTCs (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR
).
OK: DTC B1800, B1801, B1802, B1803 and 51 are not output.
HINT:
DTCs other than DTC B1800, B1801, B1802, B1803 and 51 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
NG: REPLACE CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
OK: USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK
- CHECK INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE
- Restore the released activation prevention mechanism of connector B to the original condition.
- Disconnect the instrument panel wire connector from the spiral cable.
- Check for short to B+ in the circuit.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
- Measure the voltage.
