2.CHECK AIRBAG HARNESS.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Connect the connector (1AG) in the test harness AG to the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18).

3) Measure the resistance between connector (2AG) in the test harness AG and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(2AG) No. 10 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance 1 M? or more?

Replace the meter. Combination Meter > REMOVAL">

Repair the bulkhead harness and instrument panel harness. Or replace the airbag main harness along with body harness.

3.CHECK AIRBAG HARNESS.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Connect the connector (1AG) in the test harness AG to the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18).

3) Connect the connectors (7AG) and (8AG) in the test harness AG.

4) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

Does the passenger’s seat belt warning light blink for 6 seconds, then repeatedly light and go off?

4.CHECK AIRBAG HARNESS.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Disconnect the connectors (7AG) and (8AG) in the test harness AG in the condition of step 3.

3) Disconnect the connector (i10) from meter.

4) Measure the resistance between connector (2AG) in the test harness AG and connector (i10).

Connector & terminal

(2AG) No. 10 — (i10) No. 16:

Is the resistance less than 10 ??

Replace the meter. Combination Meter > REMOVAL">

Repair the bulkhead harness and instrument panel harness. Or replace the airbag main harness along with body harness.
