PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC (AIRBAG SYSTEM)

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(c) Turn the power switch on (IG) and wait for 10 seconds or more.

(d) Turn the Techstream on.

(e) Clear the DTCs.

Body Electrical > SRS Airbag > Clear DTCs

(f) Check for DTCs and check that no DTCs are output.

Body Electrical > SRS Airbag > Trouble Codes

OK:

No DTCs are output.
