  4. Read the DTCs.

    1. Read the blinking patterns of the DTCs. As examples, the blinking patterns for the normal system code and DTCs 11 and 31 are shown in the illustration on the left.

      1. Normal system code indication (w/o past DTC)
        The light blinks twice per second.
      2. Normal system code indication (w/ past DTC)
        When the past DTC is stored in the center airbag sensor assembly, the light blinks once per second.
      3. DTC indication
        The first blinking pattern indicates the first digit DTC. The second blinking pattern occurs after a 1.5-second pause.
      If there are two or more DTCs, there is a 2.5-second pause between each DTC. After all DTCs are shown, there is a 4.0-second pause, and they are all repeated.

      HINT:
      1. If 2 or more malfunctions are found, the indication begins with the lowest numbered DTC.
      2. If DTCs are indicated without connecting the terminals, proceed to the "TC and CG Terminal Circuit" on page (Click here ).

    3. Disconnect terminal TC of the DLC3 within 3 to 10 seconds after the DTCs are output, and check that the SRS warning light comes on after 3 seconds.

    4. Within 2 to 4 seconds of the SRS warning light coming on, connect terminals TC and CG of the DLC3.

    5. The SRS warning light goes off within 2 to 4 seconds of connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3. Then, disconnect terminal TC within 2 to 4 seconds of the SRS warning light going off.

    6. The SRS warning light comes on again within 2 to 4 seconds of disconnecting terminal TC. Then, reconnect terminals TC and CG within 2 to 4 seconds of the SRS warning light coming on.



    7. Check that the SRS warning light goes off within 2 to 4 seconds of connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3. Also check that the normal system code is output within 1 second of the SRS warning light going off.
      If DTCs are not cleared, repeat these procedure until the DTCs are cleared.
