ODS Unit Calibration

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Acura MDX, 2008 Acura MDX, and 2007 Acura MDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When you replace the SRS unit, front passenger's weight sensors, or the ODS unit, calibrate the ODS unit.

While calibrating the ODS unit, observe these precautions:

  1. Position the front passenger's seat to the rearmost position, and adjust the seat-back to the forward most position. Do not move the seat from this position.
  2. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A).

  3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the SRS unit. If it does not, troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).
  4. Drive the vehicle, and accelerate to 20 mph (36 km/h), then stop on level ground.
  5. From the Main Menu, select SRS, then Calibration, then Misc Test, then select "SWS INITIALIZATION," and follow the prompts until the calibration has been completed.
