Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures

If there was a malfunction, but it doesn't recur, it will be stored in the memory as an intermittent failure, and the SRS indicator light comes on.


After Checking The DTC, Troubleshoot As Follows:
1. Record the DTC.
2. Remove the SCS service connector from the service check connector (2P).
3. Erase the DTC memory (see "Erasing the DTC Memory"').
4. With the shift lever in neutral, turn the ignition switch ON (II), and let the engine idle.

Troubleshooting of Intermittent Failures:

5. The SRS indicator light comes on for about six seconds and goes off.

Troubleshooting of Intermittent Failures:

6. Shake the wire harness and the connector, take a test drive (quick acceleration, quick braking, cornering), and turn the steering wheel fully left and right, and hold it there for five to ten seconds to find the cause of the intermittent failure. If the problem recurs, the SRS indicator light will stay on.
7. If you can't duplicate the intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.
