SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-78

DIAGNOSIS CODE 43: SRS warning lamp circuit open-circuited (Lamp does not Illuminate).

OPERATION

• Power for the SRS warning lamp is supplied from 

the ignition switch (IG1) circuit.

• The SRS warning lamp illuminates when the igni-

tion switch is turned to the "ON" position and 
goes out after approximately 7 seconds if there is 
not a malfunction in the SRS system.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

This diagnosis code will be set if the SRS warning 
lamp driving circuit is short to earth. However, if the 
vehicle condition returns to normal, diagnosis code 
43 will be automatically erased, and the SRS warn-
ing lamp will go out.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harnesses of connectors

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

• Malfunction of the combination meter

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the SRS warning lamp.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnected the SRS-ECU connector B-35.
(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

Q: Does the warning lamp illuminate?

YES : 

Go to Step 3.

NO : 

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the harness for short circuit to 
earth between  ignition switch connector B-141 
(terminal No.2) and combination meter B-14 
(terminal No.31) and between combination meter 
B-14 (terminal No.26) and SRS-ECU connector 
B-35 (terminal No.18).

connector B-129, B-131 junction connector B-22 and 
repair if necessary.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : . 

Replace the combination meter (Refer to 

GROUP 54A, Combination Meters 
Assembly 

P.54A-67

).

NO : . 

Repair the harness wires between 

SRS-ECU connector B-35 (terminal No.18) 
and ignition switch connector (terminal 
No.2). 

STEP 3. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 43 set?

YES : 

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-143

).

NO : 

An intermittent malfunction is suspected
