DTC 87-32: Side Airbag Cutoff Indicator Stays On/Off

1. Erase 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, and is DTC 87-32 indicated?

YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures. If another DTC is indicated, go to the Trouble Code Descriptions.

3. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Make sure nothing is on the front passenger's seat.




4. Disconnect the OPDS unit harness 8P connector D from the OPDS unit.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).




6. Check for voltage between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector D 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 assembly. Disconnect gauge assembly connector B (22P) from the gauge assembly.




9. Check resistance between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector D 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, SRS floor harness, or dashboard wire harness A; replace the faulty harness.




10. Check the resistance between the No. 3 terminal of the OPDS unit harness 8P connector D and the No. 6 terminal of gauge assembly connector B (22P). There should be 0 - 1.0 Ohm.

Is the resistance as specified?

YES - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures.

NO - Open in the wire of the OPDS unit harness, SRS floor harness, or dashboard wire harness A; replace the faulty harness.
