Read the DTCs.

Read the blinking patterns of the DTCs. As examples, the blinking patterns for the normal system code and trouble codes 11 and 31 are shown in the illustration.

Normal system code indication (w/o past trouble code)
The light blinks twice per second.
Normal system code indication (w/ past trouble code)
When the past trouble code is stored in the center airbag sensor assembly, the light blinks only once per second.
Trouble code indication
The first blinking indicates the first DTC. The second blinking occurs after a 1.5-second pause.

If there are more than 1 code, there will be a 2.5-second pause between each code. After all codes are shown, there will be a 4.0-second pause, and then they all will be repeated.


  • HINT:
If 2 or more malfunctions are found, the indication begins with the smaller numbered code.
If DTCs are indicated without connecting the terminals, proceed to the "Diagnosis Circuit" .

When the engine switch is turned off, the DTCs are cleared.

  • HINT:

Disconnect terminal TC of the DLC3 within 3 to 10 seconds after the DTCs are output, and check if the SRS warning light comes on after 3 seconds.

Within 2 to 4 seconds after the SRS warning light comes on, connect terminals TC and CG of the DLC3.

The SRS warning light should go off within 2 to 4 seconds after connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3. Then, disconnect terminal TC within 2 to 4 seconds after the SRS warning light goes off.

The SRS warning light comes on again within 2 to 4 seconds after disconnecting terminal TC. Then, reconnect terminals TC and CG within 2 to 4 seconds after the SRS warning light comes on.

Check if the SRS warning light goes off within 2 to 4 seconds after connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3. Also check if the normal system code is output within 1 second after the SRS warning light goes off.


If DTCs are not cleared, repeat this procedure until the codes are cleared.
