Distance Control Switch Circuit: Procedure
- INSPECT STEERING PAD SWITCH ASSEMBLY
- Remove the steering pad. Refer to COMPONENTS .
- Disconnect the k1 connector from the spiral cable.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition k1-4 (DIST) - k1-6 (ECC) Distance control switch ON Below 2.5 Ω k1-4 (DIST) - k1-6 (ECC) Distance control switch OFF 10 kΩ or higher
NG → See step 6
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE NOTE:
The spiral cable is an important part of the SRS airbag system. Incorrect removal or installation of the spiral cable may cause airbag deployment. Refer to HINT below.
HINT:
- Spiral cable removal. Refer to REMOVAL
- Spiral cable installation. Refer to INSTALLATION
- Remove the spiral cable. Refer to COMPONENTS .
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition k1-4 (DIST) - J24-11 (DIST) The spiral cable position is center Below 1 Ω The spiral cable position is 2.5 rotations to the left The spiral cable position is 2.5 rotations to the right k1-6 (ECC) - J24-2 (ECC) The spiral cable position is center Below 1 Ω The spiral cable position is 2.5 rotations to the left The spiral cable position is 2.5 rotations to the right HINT:
The spiral cable makes a maximum of approximately 5 rotations.
NG → See step 7
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SPIRAL CABLE - DISTANCE CONTROL ECU, BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the distance control ECU connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition J24-11 (DIST) - J17-16 (MODE) Always Below 1 Ω J24-11 (DIST) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher J24-2 (ECC) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT DISTANCE CONTROL ECU
- Reconnect the distance control ECU connector.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition J17-16 (MODE) - Body ground Distance control switch ON 0 to 2 V Distance control switch OFF 11 to 14 V
NG → See step 8
OK → See step 5
