Special Tools Required
SCS short connector, 07PAZ-0010100
To erase the DTC(s) from the SRS unit, use a Honda PGM Tester (see the Honda PGM Tester SRS vehicle System Supplement) or the following procedure.
- Make sure the ignition switch is OFF.
- Connect the SCS short connector (A) to the MES connector (2P) (B). Do not use a jumper wire.
- Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
- The SRS indicator light will come on for about 6 seconds and then go off. Remove the SCS short connector from the MES connector (2P) within 4 seconds after the light goes off.
- The SRS indicator light will come on again. Reconnect the SCS short connector to the MES connector (2P) within 4 seconds after the light comes on.
- When the SRS indicator light goes off, remove the SCS short connector from the MES connector (2P) within 4 seconds.
- The SRS indicator light will blink 2 times indicating that the memory has been erased.
- Turn the ignition switch OFF and wait for 10 seconds.
Turn the ignition switch ON (II) again after the procedure. The SRS system is OK if the SRS indicator light comes on for 6 seconds and then goes off.
If there was a malfunction, but it does not recur, it will be stored in the memory as an intermittent failure and the SRS indicator light will come on.
After checking the DTC, troubleshoot as follows:
- Read the DTC (see ''Reading DTCs'').
- Erase the DTC memory (see ''Erasing the DTC Memory'').
- With the shift lever in Park or neutral, start the engine and let the engine idle.
- The SRS indicator light will come on for about 6 seconds and then go off.
- Shake the wire harness and the connectors, take a test drive (quick acceleration, quick braking, cornering), turn the steering wheel fully left and right and hold it there for 5 to 10 seconds. If the problem recurs, the SRS indicator light will come on.
- If you can not duplicate the intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.
