2. Is the measured voltage within specification?

   YES 

   • Check short to ground.

   NO 

   • Repair the short to battery line circuit on wiring harness between the OC Sensor and the SRSCM.

1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK.
2. Disconnect the battery negative cable from the battery.
3. Measure resistance between the terminal 2 of OC Sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
4. Measure resistance between the terminal 2 and 3 of OC Sensor harness connector

   Specification (resistance): Infinite

2. Is the measured resistance within specification?

   YES 

   • Check OC Sensor.

   NO 

   • Repair or replace the wiring harness between the OC Sensor and the SRSCM.

1. Replace the OC Sensor with a new one.
   • Refer to OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SENSOR (OCS) .
2. Install the DAB module and connect the DAB connector.
3. Connect the connectors of the PAB, SAB, CAB, BPT, FIS and SIS.
4. Connect the SRSCM connector.
5. Connect the battery negative cable to the battery.
6. Connect the a Hi-Scan (Pro) the data link connector.
7. Turn the ignition switch to ON and check the vehicle again.
8. Does Hi-Scan (Pro) indicate any DTC related to OC Sensor?

   YES 

   • Go to next step.

   NO 

   • Replace the OC Sensor.
