NO.1 AIR BAG SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE

1	Air bag system warning light does not illuminate.
DETECTION CONDITION	Malfunction in air bag system warning light circuit (short to ground)
POSSIBLE CAUSE	• SAS control module malfunction • Instrument cluster (circuit board) malfunction • Short to ground circuit in wiring harness between instrument cluster and SAS control module

• When performing an asterisked (*) troubleshooting inspection, slightly shake the wiring harness and connectors while performing the inspection to discover whether poor contact points are the cause of any intermittent malfunction. If there is a problem, verify that connectors, terminals and wiring harness are connected correctly and undamaged.

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	INSPECT OTHER WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS CIRCUIT IN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER • Turn the engine switch to the ON position. • Do other warning and indicator lights illuminate?	Yes	Turn the engine switch to the LOCK position, then go to the next step.
1		No	Inspect instrument cluster power supply system and ground system the, then go to Step 4.
2	INSPECT SAS CONTROL MODULE Warning • Handling the air bag system components improperly can accidentally deploy the air bag modules and pre-tensioner seat belts, which may seriously injure you. Read the air bag system service warnings and cautions before handling the air bag system components. (See SERVICE WARNINGS.) (See SERVICE CAUTIONS.) • Turn the engine switch to LOCK position. • Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more. • Remove the column cover. • Disconnect the clock spring connector. • Remove the glove compartment. • Disconnect the passenger‐side air bag module connector. • Disconnect the driver and passenger‐side seat connectors. • Disconnect the driver‐ and passenger‐side pre‐tensioner seat belt connectors. • Remove the console. • Disconnect all SAS control module connectors. • Connect the negative battery cable. • Turn the engine switch to ON position. • Does the air bag system warning light illuminate?	Yes	Replace the SAS control module, then go to Step 4. (See SAS CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2		No	Go to the next step.
*3	INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN SAS CONTROL MODULE AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FOR SHORT TO GROUND • Turn the engine switch to LOCK position. • Disconnect the negative battery cable. • Disconnect the instrument cluster connector. • Is there continuity between terminal 1H of the instrument cluster connector and ground?	Yes	Replace the wiring harness, then go to Step 4.
*3		No	Replace the instrument cluster, then go to the next step. (See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
4	CONFIRM THAT MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS DO NOT RECUR AFTER REPAIR • Turn the engine switch to LOCK position. • Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more. • Connect all SAS control module connectors. • Connect the driver and passenger-side pre-tensioner seat belt connectors. • Connect the driver and passenger‐side seat connectors. • Connect the passenger‐side air bag module connector. • Connect the clock spring connector. • Connect the negative battery cable. • Turn the engine switch to ON position. • Does the air bag system warning light operate properly?	Yes	Complete troubleshooting, then explain repairs to customer.
4		No	Recheck malfunction symptoms, then repeat from Step 1 if malfunction recurs.
