INSPECTION

ACTION

INSPECT BATTERY

• Measure the voltage of battery.

• Is the voltage 8 V or more?

Yes

Go to the next step.

Battery is weak.

Inspect charge/discharge system, then go to Step 8.

(See BATTERY INSPECTION [L8, LF, L5].)

(See BATTERY INSPECTION [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

(See BATTERY INSPECTION [MZR-CD 2.2].)

VERIFY THAT SAS CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR IS CONNECTED

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 AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS.)

(See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE CAUTIONS.)

• Switch the ignition to off.

• Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more.

• Remove the rear console. (See REAR CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

• Are all SAS control module connectors securely connected?

Yes

Go to the next step.

Reconnect the connector properly, then go to Step 8.

INSPECT DTCS IN SAS CONTROL MODULE

• Inspect the DTC for the SAS control module on-board diagnostic system.
