GENERAL DESCRIPTION

WARNINGExtreme care must be used when servicing the SRS to avoid injury to the service personnel (by inadvertent deployment of the air bags) or the driver (by rendering the SRS inoperative).

The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) and seat belt with pre-tensioner is designed to supplement the driver's and passenger's (front) seat belts to help reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger by activating and deploying both front air bags in certain frontal collisions.

The SRS consist of driver's and passenger's (front) air bag modules, SRS air bag control unit

(SRS-ECU), front impact sensors, SRS warning light, and clock spring. Air bags are located in the center of the steering wheel and above the glove box. Each air bag is made up of a folded air bag and an inflator unit. The SRS-ECU under the floor console monitors the system and has a safing G-sensor and an analog G-sensor. The warning light on the instrument panel indicates the operational status of the SRS. The clock spring is installed in the steering column. The seat belt pre-tensioner is built into the driver's and passenger's (front) seat belt retractor. The front impact sensor is assembled on the headlight support panel to monitor collision upon frontal impact.

Only authorized service personnel should do work on or around the SRS components. Those service personnel should read this article carefully before starting any such work.

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT FUNCTION

The diagnosis unit monitors the SRS system and stores data concerning any detected faults in the system. When the ignition switch is in "ON" or "START" position, the SRS warning light should illuminate for about seven seconds and then turn "OFF". That indicates that the SRS system is in operational order. If the SRS warning light does any of the following, immediate inspection by an authorized dealer is needed.

Scheme 338

Scheme 338: ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT FUNCTION
  1. The SRS warning light does not illuminate as described above.
  2. The SRS warning light stays on for more than seven seconds.
  3. The SRS warning light illuminates while driving.

If a vehicle's SRS warning light is in any of these three conditions when brought in for inspection, the SRS system must be inspected, diagnosed and serviced in accordance with this article.

SRS AIR BAG SPECIAL CONNECTOR

To enhance the system reliability, a connector lock switch is integrated in the SRS-ECU connector, the air bag module connectors, the clock spring connector, the seat belt pretensioner connectors (black connector "A" shown in the illustration below).

Scheme 343

Scheme 343: SRS AIR BAG SPECIAL CONNECTOR

SQUIB CIRCUIT CONNECTOR LOCK SWITCH

The switch is a mechanism that shorts the power supply terminal to the ground terminal automatically in the air bag squib circuit when the connector is disconnected. A "short" spring is integrated inside the connector. This spring prevents static electricity from flowing to the squib by shorting the power supply terminal to the ground terminal (i.e. there is no potential difference between the two terminals).

CAUTIONWhen the connector is disconnected, there will be short circuit between the terminals. This is not a fault.

INTRODUCTION TO DIAGNOSIS

The SRS system is controlled by the SRS-ECU. The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by detecting signals from the left and right front impact sensors, front air bag analog G-sensor and front air bag safing G-sensor. If the impact is over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an ignition signal. At this time, if the safing G-sensor is on, the SRS air bag will inflate. The SRS warning light in the combination meter alerts a malfunction of the SRS system. If the following symptoms occur even when the vehicle has not been in a collision, there may be a malfunction in the SRS system.

  1. The SRS warning light does not go off within approximately seven seconds after the ignition switch has been turned "ON".
  2. The SRS warning light does not illuminate when the ignition switch is turned "ON".

Refer to the Post-collision Diagnosis when inspecting and servicing the vehicle that has been in a collision (Refer to POST-COLLISION DIAGNOSIS ).

TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY

Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If you follow them carefully, you will be sure that you have exhausted all of the possible ways to find a SRS fault.

  1. Gather information about the problem from the customer.
  2. Verify that the condition described by the customer exists.
  3. Check the vehicle for any SRS diagnostic trouble codes (SRS DTC).
  4. If you cannot verify the condition but there are no SRS DTCs, the malfunction is intermittent. Refer to «HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTIONS»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/hoistjack/#general-lancer-evolution__how-to-cope-with-intermittent-malfunctions) .
  5. If there is a SRS DTC, record the code number, then erase the code from vehicle memory using scan tool MB991958.
  6. Recreate the SRS DTC set conditions to see if the same SRS DTC will be set again. If the same SRS DTC is set again, follow the Inspection Chart for DTC and find the fault. If you cannot get the same SRS DTC to be set again, the malfunction is intermittent. Refer to «HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTIONS»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/ix-2005-2007/remont/hoistjack/#general-lancer-evolution__how-to-cope-with-intermittent-malfunctions) .

The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by detecting signals from the front impact sensors and the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the impact is over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing G-sensor is on, the seat belt pre-tensioner will deploy.

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance between the input terminals of the passenger's (front) seat belt pre-tensioner (squib). However, if no DTC reset, the SRS warning light will be switched off (DTC will be retained).

  1. Improper engaged connector or defective short spring*
  2. Short circuit between the passenger's (front) seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) circuit terminals
  3. Damaged connector(s)
  4. Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

Note. *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a "short" spring (which prevents the seat belt pre-tensioner from deploying unintentionally due to static electricity by shorting the positive wire to the ground wire in the squib circuit when the connectors are disconnected) (Refer to GENERAL DESCRIPTION ). Therefore, if connector C-13 or D-03 is damaged or improperly engaged, the short spring may not be released when the connector is connected.
