Detection Condition

Warning
•  Detection conditions are for understanding the DTC outline before performing an inspection. Performing an inspection according to only the detection conditions may cause injury due to an operating error, or damage the system. When performing an inspection, always follow the inspection procedure.
•  Malfunction in the wiring harness between the crash zone sensor and SAS control module
•  Malfunction in the crash zone sensor circuit

Possible Causes

•  Crash zone sensor connector malfunction
•  Open or short circuit or short to ground or short to power supply in the wiring harness between the crash zone sensor and SAS control module
•  Crash zone sensor malfunction
•  SAS control module malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
INSPECT CRASH ZONE SENSOR CONNECTOR
Warning
•  Handling the component parts improperly can accidentally operate (deploy) the air bag module, which may seriously injure you. Read the service warnings/cautions and the workshop manual before handling the air bag system components.
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Disconnect the crash zone sensor connector.
•  Inspect the crash zone sensor connector. (Corrosion, damage, and disconnected pins)
•  Is there any malfunction of the crash zone sensor connector?
Yes
Replace the crash zone sensor wiring harness.
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN SAS CONTROL MODULE AND CRASH ZONE SENSOR
•  Remove the column cover. (See COLUMN COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the clock spring connector.
•  Remove the glove compartment. (See GLOVE COMPARTMENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the passenger-side air bag module connector. (See PASSENGER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the driver and passenger-side front seat connector. (See FRONT SEAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Remove the C-pillar trim. (See C-PILLAR TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the driver and passenger-side curtain air bag module connector (harness side). (See CURTAIN AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Remove the B-pillar lower trim. (See B-PILLAR LOWER TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the lap pre-tensioner seat belt connector. (See FRONT SEAT BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect the driver and passenger-side pre-tensioner seat belt connector. (See FRONT SEAT BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Remove the console. (See CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Disconnect all SAS control module connectors. (See SAS CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
•  Inspect the wiring harnesses between SAS control module connector terminal 3N and crash zone sensor connector terminal A, and SAS control module connector terminal 3O and crash zone sensor connector terminal B for the following:
―  Short circuit between terminals
―  Short to body ground
―  Open circuit
Note
•  Inspect for continuity while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and crash zone sensor.
•  Is the wiring harness normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the wiring harness between the SAS control module and the crash zone sensor.
3
INSPECT THE WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN THE SAS CONTROL MODULE AND CRASH ZONE SENSOR FOR A SHORT CIRCUIT TO THE POWER SUPPLY
•  Switch the ignition to ON with SAS control module connector and crash zone sensor connector disconnected.
•  Measure the voltage of SAS control module connector terminals 3N and 3O of SAS control module harness side connector.
Note
•  Measure the voltage while shaking the wiring harness between the SAS control module and crash zone sensor.
•  Is the voltage measured?
Yes
Replace the wiring harness between the SAS control module and the crash zone sensor.
No
Replace the crash zone sensor, then go to the next step.
4
PERFORM SAS CONTROL MODULE DTC INSPECTION
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1min or more.
•  Reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Switch the ignition to ON.
•  Clear the DTC for the SAS control module using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC.)
•  Perform the DTC inspection for the SAS control module using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION.)
•  Are the same DTCs present?
Yes
Replace the SAS control module.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
