DTC 32-1x

DTC 32-1x ("x" can be 0 thru 9 or A thru F): Open or Increased Resistance in Front Passenger's Side Airbag Inflator

Special Tools Required
- SRS inflator simulator 07SAZ-TB4011A
- SRS simulator lead L 070AZ-SNAA300

NOTE: Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, review SRS Precautions and Procedures and General Troubleshooting Information.

1. Clear the DTC memory.
2. Turn the ignition switch to 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 32-1x indicated?

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 to LOCK (0). Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait for 3 minutes.
4. Disconnect the front passenger's seat subharness 2P connector (A) from the front passenger's side airbag (B).






5. Connect the SRS inflator simulator (2 ohms connectors) and simulator lead L to the front passenger's seat subharness.
6. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.
7. Clear the DTC memory.
8. Read the DTC.

Is DTC 32-1x indicated?

YES - Go to step 9.

NO - Open or increased resistance in the front passenger's side airbag inflator; replace the front passenger's side airbag.

9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0). Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait for 3 minutes.
10. Disconnect both seat belt tensioner 4P connectors and both seat belt buckle tensioner 4P connectors.
11. Disconnect SRS unit connector B (28P) from the SRS unit.
12. Disconnect the SRS inflator simulator from the SRS simulator lead. Do not disconnect the simulator lead from the front passenger's seat subharness 2P connector.
13. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the black SRS simulator lead (A). There should be 1.0 ohm or less.






Is the resistance as specified?

YES - Faulty SRS unit or poor connection at SRS unit connector B (28P) and the SRS unit. Check the connection; if the connection is OK, replace the SRS unit.

NO - Go to step 14.

14. Disconnect floor wire harness 4P connector C554 (A) from front passenger's seat subharness 4P connector C554 (B).






15. Measure the resistance between the No. 3 and the No. 4 terminals of floor wire harness 4P connector C554. There should be less than 1.0 ohm.






Is the resistance as specified?

YES - Open or increased resistance in the front passenger's seat subharness; replace the front passenger's seat subharness.

NO - Open or increased resistance in the floor wire harness; replace the floor wire harness.
