DTC 87-3x
DTC 87-3x ("x" can be 0 thru 9 or A thru F): Side Airbag Cutoff Indicator Stays ON/OFFNOTE: Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, review SRS Precautions and Procedures and General Troubleshooting Information.
1. Clear the DTC memory.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and check that the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and then goes off.
Does the SRS indicator stay on?
YES - Go to step 3.
NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures. Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot the DTC.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Make sure nothing is on the front passenger's seat.
4. Disconnect the OPDS unit harness 8P connector (A) from the OPDS unit.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
6. Measure the voltage between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector and body ground. There should be battery voltage.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Faulty OPDS unit; replace the OPDS unit.
NO - Go to step 7.
7. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
8. Remove the gauge control module. Disconnect gauge control module connector A (20P) from the gauge control module.
9. Measure the resistance between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector and body ground. There should be an open circuit or at least 1 Mohms.
Is the resistance as specified?
YES - Go to step 10.
NO - Short to ground in the OPDS unit harness, right side wire harness, or dashboard wire harness A; replace the faulty harness.
10. Measure the resistance between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector and the No. 11 terminal of gauge control module connector A (20P). There should be 0-1.0 ohm.
Is the resistance as specified?
YES - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures. Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures
NO - Open in the OPDS unit harness, right side wire harness, or dashboard wire harness A; replace the faulty harness.
