• SAS control module malfunction

Step

Inspection

Action

1

• Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).

• Do other warning and indicator lights illuminate?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Inspect the instrument cluster power supply system and ground system, then go to Step 3.

2

• Inspect the DTC for the SAS control module on-board diagnostic system.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [SAS CONTROL MODULE (STANDARD DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM)].)

  (See DTC INSPECTION [SAS CONTROL MODULE (TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM)].)

• Have DTCs been recorded in memory?

Yes

Perform the applicable DTC inspection, then go to Step 5.

(See DTC TABLE [SAS CONTROL MODULE (STANDARD DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM)].)

(See DTC TABLE [SAS CONTROL MODULE (TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM)].)

No

Go to the next step.

3

• Turn on all warning lights and indicator lights using the instrument cluster PID WL+IL of simulation function using the M-MDS.

  (See ACTIVE COMMAND MODES INSPECTION [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER].)

• Do other waning and indicator lights illuminate?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the instrument cluster.

(See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Then go to Step 5.

4

• Inspect the DTC for the instrument cluster on-board diagnostic system.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER].)

• Have DTCs been recorded in memory?

Yes

Perform the applicable DTC inspection, then go to the next step.

(See DTC TABLE [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER].)

No

Go to the next step.

5

• Switch the ignition off.

• Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).

• Does the air bag system warning light operate properly?

Yes

Verify that there are no DTCs in the memory. If there are no DTCs, the troubleshooting is completed.

No

Recheck malfunction symptoms, then repeat from Step 1 if malfunction recurs.
