Acura RL. Manual - part 167

Is the resistance as specified?

YES - Check for a faulty SRS unit or passenger's airbag cutoff indicator; replace the passenger's
airbag cutoff indicator. If the problem is still present, replace the SRS unit (see SRS UNIT
REPLACEMENT ).

NO - Short to ground in dashboard wire harness A; replace dashboard wire harness A.

1. Check the No. 10 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.

Is the fuse OK?

YES - Go to step 2.

NO - Short to ground in the under-dash fuse/relay box No.10 (7.5 A) fuse circuit.

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II) and wait for 30 seconds. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.

3. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait for 3 minutes.

4. Disconnect SRS unit connector A (28P) from the SRS unit (see step 7 ).

5. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

6. Measure the voltage between the No. 17 terminal of SRS unit connector A (28P) and body ground.

Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and measure the voltage. There should be battery voltage.

Is the resistance as specified?

YES - Open in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box or poor connection between connector S (2P)
and the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box; check the connection. If the connection is OK, replace the
driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.

NO - Open in dashboard wire harness A; replace dashboard wire harness A.

1. Check the No. 22 (10 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.

Is the fuse OK?

YES - Go to step 11.

NO - Go to step 2.

2. Replace the No. 22(10 A) fuse.

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and wait for 30 seconds. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.

4. Check the No. 22 (10 A) fuse.

Is the fuse OK?

YES - The system is OK at this time.

NO - Go to step 5.

5. Replace the No. 22 (10 A) fuse.

6. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait for 3 minutes.

7. Disconnect SRS unit connector A (28P) from the SRS unit (see step 7 ).

8. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

9. Turn the ignition switch ON (II) and wait for 30 seconds. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.

10. Check the No. 22 (10 A) fuse.

Is the fuse OK?

YES - Short to ground in the SRS unit; replace the SRS unit (see SRS UNIT REPLACEMENT ).

NO - Short to ground in dashboard wire harness A or in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box No. 22
(10 A) fuse circuit; replace dashboard wire harness A. If the problem is still present, replace the
driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.

11. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait for 3 minutes.

12. Disconnect SRS unit connector A (28P) from the SRS unit (see step 7 ).

13. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

14. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

15. Measure the voltage between the No. 18 terminal of SRS unit connector A (28P) and body ground.

There should be battery voltage.
