INSPECTION PROCEDURE 2: Power supply circuit system




OPERATION


To SRS-ECU, the power is supplied from two independent circuits (fuse No. 15 and 21) via ignition switch (IG1) <vehicles without keyless operation system> or IG1 relay <Vehicles with keyless operation system>.
If the power is not supplied to SRS-ECU, the communication between M.U.T.-III and SRS-ECU cannot be established.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Damaged wiring harness and connectors
  • Battery failure
  • Malfunction of the charging system
  • Malfunction of SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Fuse Nos. 15, 21 check.


Q. Is the fuse in good condition?

Go to Step 3.
Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Fuse open circuit check


(1)Replace the fuse.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position, wait for at least one minute, and then turn the switch OFF.
(3)Check the fuse.

Q. Is the fuse in good condition?

Go to Step 3.
Repair the wiring harness IG1A line between the junction block connector and SRS-ECU connector, IG1B line between the junction block connector terminal No. 8 and the SRS-ECU connector, and replace the fuse.

STEP 3. Resistance measurement at the SRS-ECU connector.


(1)Disconnect the SRS-ECU connectors.
(2)Take the measurements below at the wiring harness side connectors.

  • Continuity GND2 line between wiring harness side connector and body earth
OK: Continuity (less than 2 Ω)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 4.
Repair the wiring harness GND2 line between the SRS-ECU connector and the body earth.

STEP 4. Voltage measurement at the SRS-ECU connector (IG1A, IG1B line).


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.
(2)Disconnect the SRS-ECU connector.
(3)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4)Ignition switch: "ON"
(5)Take the measurements below at the harness side connector.

  • Voltage IG1A, IG1B line between the SRS-ECU connector and the body earth
OK: 9 V or more
(6)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 6.
Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Resistance measurement at the SRS-ECU connector (IG1A, IG1B line).


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.
(2)Disconnect the SRS-ECU connector.
(3)
  • Continuity IG1A line between junction block connector and SRS-ECU connector
  • Continuity IG1B line between junction block connector and SRS-ECU connector
OK: Continuity (less than 2 Ω)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 6.
Repair the wiring harness IG1A line between the junction block connector and the SRS-ECU connector, IG1B line between the junction block connector and SRS-ECU connector.

STEP 6. Trouble symptom check.


Q. Is the communication between M.U.T.-III and SRS-ECU possible?

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Replace SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
