―  SAS control module terminal 2O
―  SAS control module terminal 2Q
Note
•  Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and driver-side crash zone sensor.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side crash zone sensor terminal.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
Go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE CRASH ZONE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Driver-side crash zone sensor and SAS control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  Driver-side crash zone sensor terminal A—SAS control module terminal 2O
―  Driver-side crash zone sensor terminal B—SAS control module terminal 2Q
Note
•  Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and driver-side crash zone sensor.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side crash zone sensor terminal.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
•  Replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

•  Is the voltage 0 V?
Yes
Replace the driver-side crash zone sensor, then go to the next step.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between SAS control module terminal and driver-side crash zone sensor terminal.
