    Result Proceed to
    DTC related to supplemental restraint system present A
    No DTC B

    A: GO TO SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM  (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING )

    B: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MAYDAY ECU - CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and wait for 90 seconds
      CAUTION: Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
      NOTE:
      • After the power switch is turned OFF, the HDD navigation system requires approximately 6 minutes to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the power switch OFF, wait 6 minutes or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
      • When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
    2. Disconnect the R24 ECU connector
    3. Disconnect the L73 airbag sensor connector.
    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below
