  1. CHECK DLC3 The ECU uses ISO 15765-4 for communication. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 15765-4 format. Symbols (Terminal No.) Terminal Description Condition Pulse condition SIL (7) - SG (5) Bus "+" Line During transmission Pulse generation CG (4) - Body ground Chassis Ground Always Below 1 ohms SG (5) - Body ground Signal ground Always Below 1 ohms BAT (16) - Body ground Battery positive Always 10 to 14 V CANH (6) - CANL (14) CAN bus line Power switch OFF* 54 to 69 ohms CANH (6) - BAT (16) HIGH-level CAN bus line Power switch OFF* 6 kohms or higher CANH (6) - CG (4) HIGH-level CAN bus line Power switch OFF* 200 ohms or higher CANL (14) - BAT (16) LOW-level CAN bus line Power switch OFF* 6 kohms or higher CANL (14) - CG (4) LOW-level CAN bus line Power switch OFF* 200 ohms or higher NOTE: *: Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the power switch, any other switches, or the doors. If the result is not as specified, the DLC3 may have a malfunction. Repair or replace the harness and connector. HINT: Connect the cable of the Techstream to the DLC3, turn the power switch ON (IG) and attempt to use the Techstream. If the display indicates that a communication error has occurred, there is a problem either with the vehicle or with the Techstream. If communication is normal when the Techstream is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 of the original vehicle. If communication is still not possible when the Techstream is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the Techstream itself. Consult the Service Department listed in the Techstream's instruction manual.
  2. SYMPTOM SIMULATION HINT: The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when no symptoms occur. In such cases, a thorough customer problem analysis must be carried out. Then the same or similar conditions and the environment in which the problem occurred in the customer's vehicle should be simulated. No matter how experienced or skilled a technician may be, if he proceeds to troubleshooting without confirming the problem symptoms, he will likely overlook something important and make a wrong guess at some points in the repair operation. This leads to a standstill in troubleshooting. Vibration method: When vibration seems to be the major cause. HINT: Perform the simulation method only during the primary check period (for approximately 6 seconds after the power switch is turned ON (IG)). Slightly vibrate the part of the sensor considered to be the problem cause with your fingers and check whether the malfunction occurs. HINT: Shaking the relays too strongly may result in open relays. Slightly shake the connector vertically and horizontally. Slightly shake the wire harness vertically and horizontally. The connector joint and fulcrum of the vibration are the major areas to be checked thoroughly.
  3. FUNCTION OF PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR Initial check: Turn the power switch ON (IG). The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("ON" and "OFF") comes on for approximately 4 seconds, then goes off for approximately 2 seconds. Approximately 6 seconds after the power switch is turned on (IG), the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator will show ON or OFF depending on the conditions listed below. Condition ON Indicator OFF Indicator Vacant OFF OFF Adult is seated ON OFF Child is seated OFF ON Child restraint system is set OFF ON Occupant classification system failure OFF ON HINT: The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator is based on the timing chart below in order to check the indicator light circuit. When the occupant classification system has trouble, both the SRS warning light and the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("OFF") come on. In this case, check the DTCs in "AIRBAG SYSTEM" first.
  4. CHECK PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR Turn the power switch ON (IG). Check that the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("ON" and "OFF") comes on for approximately 4 seconds, then goes off for approximately 2 seconds. HINT: Refer to the table in the previous step regarding the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator when the power switch is turned ON (IG) and approximately 6 seconds pass. See 3 .

DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  1. DTC CHECK HINT: When DTC B1650/32 is detected as a result of troubleshooting for "AIRBAG SYSTEM", perform troubleshooting for the "OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM". Use the Techstream to read and clear DTCs, otherwise the DTCs cannot be read and cleared. Check for DTCs. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch ON (IG). Check the DTCs by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details. Clear DTCs. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch ON (IG). Clear the DTCs by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.

DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST

  1. DATA LIST FOR OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU HINT: Using the Techstream to read the DATA LIST allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the DATA LIST information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. NOTE: In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not. Warm up the engine. Turn the power switch OFF. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch ON. Turn ON the Techstream. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Occupant Detection / Data List. According to the display on Techstream, read the "DATA LIST".
