    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION CHART

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      A-1 (ECC) - A-2 (R/N), A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) Neutral 10 kΩ or higher
      A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) + (ACCEL)/RES (RESUME) 216 to 264 Ω
      A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) - (COAST)/SET 567 to 693 Ω
      A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) CANCEL 1,386 to 1,694 Ω
      A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) Main Switch off 10 kΩ or higher
      A-1 (ECC) - A-3 (CCS) Main Switch on Below 1 Ω
      A-1 (ECC) - A-2 (R/N) Main Switch on and MODE Switch on Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPLACE CRUISE CONTROL MAIN SWITCH 

    OK: Go to Next Step 

  3. 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 prevent the airbag from deploying. Be sure to read the article shown in the brackets.

    HINT:

    1. Remove the spiral cable.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION CHART

      Tester Condition Spiral Cable Position Specified Condition
      m1-1 - J24-7 Center Below 1 Ω
      2.5 rotations to the left
      2.5 rotation to the right
      m1-3 - J24-1 Center Below 1 Ω
      2.5 rotation to the left
      2.5 rotation to the right
      m1-4 - J24-2 Center Below 1 Ω
      2.5 rotation to the left
      2.5 rotation to the right

      HINT:

      The spiral cable makes a maximum of approximately 5 rotations.

    NG: REPLACE SPIRAL CABLE 

    OK: Go to Next Step 

  4. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SPIRAL CABLE - ECM) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION CHART

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      J24-1 - A6-31 (CCS) Always Below 1 Ω
      J24-7 - A5-20 (CCHG) Always Below 1 Ω
      J24-1 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      J24-7 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
