INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- Perform the simulation method by selecting check mode (Signal Check) using the Techstream (YARIS_NCP93 RM000000XFF0ATX.html).
- 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 (YARIS_NCP93 RM00000135202EX.html).
1.CHECK CONNECTORS |
Turn the ignition switch off.
![]() |
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
- CAUTION:
- Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

- OK:
- The connectors are properly connected.
- HINT:
- If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.
Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad, spiral cable sub-assembly and airbag sensor assembly.
Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.
- OK:
- The terminals are not deformed or damaged.
Check that the spiral cable sub-assembly connector (on the steering pad side) is not damaged.
- OK:
- The lock button is not disengaged, or the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.
Check that the short springs for the instrument panel wire and spiral cable sub-assembly with the activation prevention mechanism are not deformed or damaged.
- OK:

2.CHECK STEERING PAD (DRIVER SIDE SQUIB) |
Connect the instrument panel wire to the airbag sensor assembly and spiral cable sub-assembly.
![]() |
Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector E.
- CAUTION:
- Never connect the tester to the steering pad (driver side squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.
- NOTICE:
- Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
- Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
