CHECK MAIN BODY ECU (MULTIPLEX NETWORK BODY ECU) (GSW VOLTAGE)

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

CAUTION:

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

NOTICE:

Turning the power switch on (IG) with the airbag sensor assembly connector disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.

(b) Disconnect the K73 airbag sensor assembly connector.

(c) Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:
