3.CHECK AIRBAG REAR HARNESS (PRETENSIONER HARNESS RH).
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 60 seconds or more.
2) Disconnect the airbag resistor from the connector (2N) of test harness N.
3) Disconnect connector (AB24) from side airbag module (RH).
4) Disconnect the connector (AB33) from curtain airbag module (RH).
5) Disconnect the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18) from airbag control module.
6) Connect the connector (1AG) in the test harness AG to the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18).
7) Connect the battery ground terminal and turn the ignition switch to ON.
8) Measure the voltage between connector (3AG) in the test harness AG and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(3AG) No. 20 (+) — Chassis ground (−):
(3AG) No. 18 (+) — Chassis ground (−):
Is the voltage less than 1 V?
