With Scan Tool

When the SRS indicator light is on, read the DTC using either of the following methods:

Data Link Connector:





READING WITH THE PGM TESTER
Connect the Honda PGM Tester (A) to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC) (B), and follow the tester's prompts in the "SRS" menu. If the tester indicates no DTC, DTC 9-1 or DTC 9-2, double-check by selecting "SCS" on the PGM Tester and reading the SRS indicator light.

READING THE SRS INDICATOR LIGHT
The SRS indicator light (A) indicates the DTC by the number of blinks when the Honda PGM Tester (C) is connected to the [1][2]DLC ([1][2]data link connector) (16P) (B).





1. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF.
2. Connect the Honda PGM Tester (C) to the [1][2]DLC (16P) (B), and follow the tester's prompts in the "SCS" menu (see the Honda PGM Tester Operator's Manual).

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). The SRS indicator light (A) should come on for about six seconds, and then goes off. Then it will blink to indicate DTCs (see the table in fig).
- The DTC consists of a main code and a sub-code.
- Including the most recent problem, up to three different malfunctions can be indicated.





- In case of a continuous failure, the DTC will be indicated repeatedly (see example 1 in fig).
- In case of an intermittent failure, the SRS indicator light will indicate the DTC one time, then it will stay on (see example 2 in fig).
- If a continuous and an intermittent failure occur at the same time, both DTCs will be indicated as continuous failures.
- In case the system is normal (no DTC), the SRS indicator light will stay on (see example 3 in fig).

4. Read the DTC.
5. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for ten seconds.
6. Disconnect the Honda PGM Tester from the [1][2]DLC (16P).
