Title: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: SRS Warning Light does not Come ON; 2018 MY Camry [03/2017 - 06/2017]

SRS Warning Light does not Come ON

DESCRIPTION

The SRS warning light is located in the combination meter assembly.

When the SRS is normal, the SRS warning light comes on for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from off to ON, and then turns off automatically.

If there is a malfunction in the SRS, the SRS warning light comes on to inform the driver of a problem.

If a malfunction occurs in the airbag sensor assembly, combination meter assembly or wire harness connected to the airbag sensor assembly or combination meter assembly, the SRS warning light turns on.

The SRS is equipped with a voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) in the airbag sensor assembly in case the source voltage drops.

When the battery voltage drops, the voltage-increase circuit (DC-DC converter) functions to increase the voltage of the SRS to normal voltage.

A malfunction in this circuit is not stored in the airbag sensor assembly. The SRS warning light automatically turns off when the source voltage returns to normal.

The signal to illuminate the SRS warning light is transmitted from the airbag sensor assembly to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.

CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

(b) Connect the connector to the combination meter assembly.

(c) Disconnect the connector from the airbag sensor assembly.

(d) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

(e) Turn the ignition switch to ON and check the SRS warning light condition.

OK:

After the primary check period, the SRS warning light turns off for approximately 10 seconds and then turns back on.

HINT:

The primary check period is approximately 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON.

OK
