PRECAUTIONS
SRS Airbag
SRS Airbag • Pretensioner Seatbelt
The driver and passenger’s SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbag that is employed with the pretensioner seatbelt helps
diminish the facial impact of both driver and passenger during
frontal crash.
The driver and passenger’s SRS side airbag, with the aid of
seatbelt, stiff body structure and energy-absorbing doors, also
helps diminish the facial and chest impact.
The SRS airbag and pretensioner seatbelt system consists of driver
airbag module (in center of steering wheel), passenger airbag module (in passenger’s instrument panel), front side airbag modules
(outer location of front seats), pretensioner seatbelt, airbag sensor
unit, spiral cable, side sensor, and warning light.
Refer to “RS Restraint System” in this service manual for safe
airbag system service.
WARNING:
To install/remove the SRS airbag, pretensioner seatbelt
system related components and harness, turn the ignition switch “OFF”, disconnect the battery terminals and
wait over 3 minutes. (This is to discharge all the remaining electricity in the airbag sensor unit’s auxiliary power
circuit.)
Do not use air impact or electrical tools when installing/
removing the components.
Do not use any hand-held tools for harness used in SRS
airbag and pretensioner seatbelt systems. Be careful with
the harness not to tangle with or interfere with other
components.
Do not use any electrical test equipments such as cir-
cuit tester when inspecting the SRS airbag and
pretensioner seatbelt circuit while installed unless the
Service Manual instructs to do so. (The weak current in
the tester can cause the SRS airbag to operate.)
Do not insert any foreign materials such as a screwdriver
in the airbag module and pretensioner seatbelt connector in order to prevent unintended operation due to static
electricity.
The harnesses used in SRS airbag and pretensioner are
covered with yellow insulation for easy identification.
Refer to “RS Restraint System” in this Service Manual
for safe airbag system service information.

General Precautions
SAFE SERVICE
Do not work while engine is running when there are no proper
air ventilation against exhaust gases.
Keep the work site well ventilated and remove inflammable
materials. Be extra careful when working with inflammables
or poisonous materials such as gasoline or refrigerant.
Dispose of used engine oils and other used cleansing liq-
uids according to the local laws.
Be careful not to get burnt or hurt when working on hot or
moving parts.
Place wheel blocks or tires to prevent the vehicle from mov-
ing before lifting the vehicle with the garage jack.
After lifting the vehicle, place supporting objects under the
vehicle to hold it firm.
Hold or support the heavy components firmly such as the
engine or suspension parts when removing them.

GIA0432D_D1
When there is no need of the battery power, always place
the ignition switch at “OFF” position and disconnect the battery ground (-) terminal in order to prevent an unwanted short
circuit.
CAUTION:
When battery terminal is disconnected, all the memories
in the radio and control units will be erased.
Do not touch hot components such as radiator, exhaust mani-
fold and muffler to prevent from burning your skin. When
engine is hot, do not remove any radiator components such
as the radiator cap until it cools down completely.
Use designated tools or special tools for safe and effective
service.
When fuel dispenser nozzle stops automatically while fuel-
ing in the gas station, do not attempt to overfill the fuel tank.
If so, it may lead to fire due to fuel overflow.

HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
2. Incident Simulation Tests
2-1. INTRODUCTION
Sometimes the symptom is not present when the vehicle is brought in for service If possible, recreate
the conditions present at the time of the incident. Doing so may help avoid a No Trouble Found Diagnosis. The following section illustrates ways to simulate the conditions/environment under which the owner
experiences an electrical incident.
The section is broken into the six following topics:
Vehicle Vibration
Heat sensitive
Freezing
Water Intrusion
Electrical load
Cold or hot start up
Get a thorough description of the incident from the customer. It is important for simulating the conditions of the problem.
2-2. VEHICLE VIBRATION
The problem may occur or become worse while driving on a rough road or when engine is vibrating (idle with A/C
on). In such a case, you will want to check for a vibration related condition. Refer to the illustration below.
2-3. CONNECTORS & HARNESS
Determine which connectors and wiring harness would affect the electrical system you are inspecting.
Gently shake each connector and harness while monitoring the system for the incident you are trying to
duplicate. This test may indicate a loose or poor electrical connection.
2-4. HINT
Connectors can be exposed to moisture. It possible to get a thin film of corrosion on the connetctor
terminals. A visual inspection may not reveal this without disconnecting the connector. If the problem
occurs intermittently, perhaps the problem is caused by corrosion. It is a good idea to disconnect, inspect and clean the terminals on related connectors in the system.
2-5. SENSORS & RELAYS
Gently apply a slight vibration to sensors and relays in the system you are inspecting.
This test may indicate a loose or poorly mounted sensor or relay.
GI-15
Page 16
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
2-6. TESTER PROBE
When probing a connector it is possible to enlarge the contact
spring opening If this occurs it may create an intermittent signal in the circuit. When probing a connector, use care not to
enlarge the opening. The probe of the Digital Multimeter (DMM)
may not fit into the connector cavity. In such cases make an
extension of a “T” pin and probe it from the harness side of the
connector. Most DMMs have accessory alligator clips. Slide
these over the probe to allow clipping the “T” pin for a better
contact. If you have any difficulty probing a terminal, inspect
the terminal. Ensure you have not accidentally opened the contact spring or pulled a wire loose.
GI-16
Page 17
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
2-7. ENGINE COMPARTMENT
There are several reasons a vehicle or engine vibration could
cause an electrical complaint. Some of the things to check for
are:
Connectors not got near diagnosis probe.
Connectors not fully seated.
Wiring harness not long enough and is being stressed due to
engine vibrations or rocking.
Wires laying across brackets or moving components.
Loose, dirty or corroded ground wires.
Wires routed too close to hot components.
To inspect components under the hood, start by verifying the
integrity of ground connections. Refer to GROUND INSPECTION (GI-21). First check that the system is properly grounded.
Then check for loose connection by gently shaking the wiring or
components as previously explained. Using the wiring diagrams
inspect the wiring for continuity.
2-8. BEHIND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
An improperly routed or improperly clamped harness can become pinched during accessory installation. Vehicle vibration
can aggravate a harness which is routed along a bracket or near
a screw.
2-9. UNDER SEATING AREAS
An unclamped or loose harness can cause wiring to be pinched
by seat components (such as slide guides) during vehicle vibration. If the wiring runs under seating areas, inspect wire routing for possible damage or pinching.
2-10. HEAT SENSITIVE
The owner’s problem may occur during hot weather or after car
has sat for a short time. In such cases you will want to check for
a heat sensitive condition.
To determine if an electrical component is heat sensitive, heat
the component with a heat gun or equivalent.
Do not heat components above 60°C (140°F). If incident occurs
while heating the unit, either replace or properly insulate the
component.
GI-17
Page 18
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
2-11. FREEZING
The customer may indicate the incident goes away after the car
warms up (winter time). The cause could be related to water
freezing somewhere in the wiring/electrical system.
There are two methods to check for this. The first is to arrange
for the owner to leave his car overnight. Make sure it will get
cold enough to demonstrate his complaint. Leave the car parked
outside overnight. In the morning, do a quick and thorough diagnosis of those electrical components which could be affected.
The second method is to put the suspect component into a
freezer long enough for any water to freeze. Reinstall the part
into the car and check for the reoccurrence of the incident. If it
occurs, repair or replace the component.
2-12. WATER INTRUSION
The incident may occur only during high humidity or in rainy/
snowy weather. In such cases the incident could be caused by
water intrusion on an electrical part. This can be simulated by
soaking the car or running it through a car wash.
Do not spray water directly on any electrical components.
2-13. ELECTRICAL LOAD
The incident may be electrical load sensitive. Perform diagnosis with all accessories (including A/C, rear window defogger,
radio, fog lamps) turned on.
2-14. COLD OR HOT START UP
On some occasions an electrical incident may occur only when
the car is started cold. Or it may occur when the car is restarted
hot shortly after being turned off. In these cases you may have
to keep the car overnight to make a proper diagnosis.
GI-18

HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
3. Circuit Inspection
3-1. INTRODUCTION
In general, testing electrical circuits is an easy task if it approached in a logical and organized method.
Before beginning it is important to have all available information on the system to be tested.
Also, get a thorough understanding of system operation. Then you will be able to use the appropriate
equipment and follow the correct test procedure.
You may have to simulate vehicle vibrations while testing electrical components. Gently shake the
wiring harness or electrical component to do this.
OPEN A circuit is open when there is no continuity through a section of the circuit.
SHORT There are two types of shorts.
SHORT CIRCUIT When a circuit contacts another circuit and causes the normal
resistance to change.
SHORTTOGROUND When a circuit contacts a ground source and grounds the circuit.
3-2. TESTING FOR “OPENS” IN THE CIRCUIT
Before you begin to diagnose and test the system, you should rough sketch a schematic of the system.
This will help you to logically walk through the diagnosis process. Drawing the sketch will also reinforce
your working knowledge of the system.
3-3. CONTINUITY CHECK METHOD
The continuity check is used to find an open in the circuit, The Digital Multimeter (DMM) set on the
resistance function will indicate an open circuit as over limit. (OL, no beep tone or no ohms symbol)
Make sure to always start with the DMM at the highest resistance level.
To help in understanding the diagnosis of open circuits please refer to the schematic above.
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Start at one end of the circuit and work your way to the other end. (At the fuse block in this example)
3. Connect one probe of the DMM to the fuse block terminal on the load side.
4. Connect the other probe to the fuse block (power) side of SWI. Little or no resistance will indicate
that portion of the circuit has good continuity. If there were an open in the circuit, the DMM would
indicate an over limit or infinite resistance condition. (point A)
5. Connect the probes between SWI and the relay. Little or no resistance will indicate that portion of the
circuit has good continuity. If there were an open in the circuit, the DMM would indicate an over limit
or infinite resistance condition. (point B)
6. Connect the probes between the relay and the solenoid. Little or no resistance will indicate that
portion of the circuit has good continuity If there were an open in the circuit, the DMM would indicate
an over limit or infinite resistance condition. (point C)
Any circuit can be diagnosed using the approach in the above example.
GI-19
Page 20
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
3-4. VOLTAGE CHECK METHOD
To help in understanding the diagnosis of open circuits please refer to the previous schematic.
In any powered circuit, an open can be found by methodically checking the system for the presence of
voltage. This is done by switching the DMM to the voltage function.
1. Connect one probe of the DMM to a known good ground.
2. Begin probing at one end of the circuit and work your way to the other end.
3. With SW1 open, probe at SW1 to check for voltage.
voltage; open is further down the circuit than SW1.
no voltage; open is between fuse block and SW1. (point A)
4. Close SW1 and probe at relay.
voltage; open is further down the circuit than the relay.
no voltage; open is between SW1 and relay. (point B)
5. Close the relay and probe at the solenoid.
voltage; open is further down the circuit than the solenoid.
no voltage; open is between relay and solenoid. (point C)
Any powered circuit can be diagnosed using the approach in the above example.
3-5. TESTING FOR “SHORT” IN THE CIRCUIT
To simplify the discussion of shorts in the system please refer to the schematic below.
3-6 RESISTANCE CHECK METHOD
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable and remove the blown fuse.
2. Disconnect all loads (SW1 open, relay disconnected and solenoid disconnected) powered through
the fuse.
3. Connect one probe of the ohmmeter to the load side of the fuse terminal. Connect the other probe to
a known good ground.
4. With SW1 open, check for continuity.
continuity; short is between fuse terminal and SW1 (point A)
no continuity; short is further down the circuit than SW1.
5. Close SW1 and disconnect the relay. Put probes at the load side of fuse terminal and a known good
ground. Then, check for continuity.
continuity; short is between SW1 and the relay. (point B)
no continuity; short is further down the circuit than the relay.
6. Close SW1 and jump the relay contacts with jumper wire. Put probes at the load side of fuse terminal
and a known good ground. Then, check for continuity.
continuity; short is between relay and solenoid. (point C)
no continuity; check solenoid, retrace steps.
GI-20
Page 21
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
3-7. VOLTAGE CHECK METHOD
1. Remove the blown fuse and disconnect all loads (i.e. SW1 open, relay disconnected and solenoid
disconnected) powered through the fuse.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ON or START position. Verity battery voltage at the B + side of the fuse
terminal (one led on the B + terminal side of the fuse block and on lead on a known good ground).
3. With SW1 open and the DMM leads across both fuse terminals, check for voltage.
voltage; short is between fuse block and SW1. (point A)
no voltage; short is further down the circuit than SW1.
4. With SW1 closed, relay and solenoid disconnected and the DMM leads across both fuse terminals,
check for voltage.
voltage; short is between SW1 and the relay. (point B)
no voltage; short is further down the circuit than the relay.
5. With SW1 closed, relay contacts jumped with fused jumper wire check for voltage.
voltage; short is down the circuit of the relay or between the relay and the disconnected solenoid.
(point C)
no voltage; retrace steps and check power to fuse block
3-8. GROUND INSPECTION
Ground connections are very important to the proper operation of electrical and electronic circuits.
Ground connections are often exposed to moisture, dirt and other corrosive elements. The corrosion
(rust) can become an unwanted resistance. This unwanted resistance can change the way a circuit works.
Electronically controlled circuits are very sensitive to proper grounding. A loose or corroded ground can
drastically affect an electronically controlled circuit. A poor or corroded ground can easily affect the
circuit. Even when the ground connection looks clean, there can be a thin film of rust on the surface.
When inspecting a ground connection follow these rules:
1. Remove the ground bolt screw or clip.
2. Inspect all mating surfaces for tarnish, dirt, rust, etc.
3. Clean as required to assure good contact.
4. Reinstall bolt or screw securely.
5. Inspect for “add-on” accessories which may be interfering with the ground circuit.
6. If several wires are crimped into one ground eyelet terminal, check for proper crimps, Make sure all

3-9. VOLTAGE DROP TESTS
Voltage drop tests are often used to find components or circuits which have excessive resistance.
voltage drop in a circuit is caused by a resistance when the circuit is in operation.
Check the wire in the illustration. When measuring resistance with ohmmeter, contact by a single strand
of wire will give reading of 0 ohms. This would indicate a good circuit. When the circuit operates, this
single stand of wire is not able to carry the current. The single strand will have a high resistance to the
current. This will be picked up as slight voltage drop.
Unwanted resistance can be caused by many situations as follows:
Undersized wiring (single strand example)
Corrosion on switch contacts
Loose wire connections or splices.
If repairs are needed always use wire that is of the same or larger gauge.
3-10. MEASURING VOLTAGE DROP - ACCUMULATED METHOD
1. Connect the voltmeter across the connector or part of the circuit you want to check. The positive lead
of the voltmeter should be closer to power and the negative lead closer to ground.
2. Operate the circuit.
3. The voltmeter will indicate how manu volts are being used to “push” current through that part of the
circuit.
Note in the illustration that there is an excessive 4.1 volt drop between the battery and the bulb.
GI-22
Page 23
HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
3-11. MEASURING VOLTAGE DROP - STEP BY STEP
The step by step method is most useful for isolating excessive drops in low voltage system. (such as
those in “Computer Controlled System”)
Circuit in the “Computer Controlled System” operate on very low amperage.
The (Computer Controlled) system operations can be adversely affected by any variation in resistance
in the system. Such resistance variation may be caused by poor connection, improper installation, improper wire gauge or corrosion.
The step by step voltage drop test can identify a component or wire with too much resistance.
1. Connect the voltmeter as shown, starting at the battery and
working your way around the circut.
2. An unsually large voltage drop will indicate a component or wire
that needs to be repuired. As you can see the illustration left,
the poor connection causes a 4 volt drop.
The chart that follows illustrates some maximum allowable voltage drops. These
values are given as a guideline, the exact value for each component vary.
COMPONENT VOLTAGE DROP
Wire negligible < .001 volts
Ground Connections Approx. 0.1 volts
Switch Contacts Approx. 0.3 volts
