    Result Proceed to
    OK A
    NG (All items are defective.) B
    NG (1 to 3 items are defective.) C

    A: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  

    C: REPLACE CRUISE CONTROL MAIN SWITCH 

    B: Go to next step. 

  2. INSPECT CRUISE CONTROL MAIN SWITCH 
    1. Disconnect the cruise control main switch connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard resistance 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
    1 - 3 Neutral 10 kΩ or higher
    1 - 3 +/RES 235 to 245 Ω
    1 - 3 -/SET 620 to 640 Ω
    1 - 3 CANCEL 1,510 to 1,570 Ω
    1 - 3 Main Switch ON Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPLACE CRUISE CONTROL MAIN SWITCH 

  3. INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE 
    NOTE: The spiral cable is an important part of the SRS airbag system. Incorrect removal or installation of the spiral cable may prevent the airbag from deploying. Be sure to read the article shown in the brackets.

    HINT:

    1. Remove the spiral cable.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard resistance 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Spiral Cable Position Specified Condition
    A-3-C13-1 (CCS) Center Below 1 Ω
    2.5 rotations to the left
    2.5 rotations to the right
    A-4 - C13-2 (ECC) Center Below 1 Ω
    2.5 rotations to the left
    2.5 rotations to the right

    HINT:

    The spiral cable makes a maximum of approximately 5 rotations.

    NG: REPLACE SPIRAL CABLE 

    OK: Go to next step. 

  4. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SPIRAL CABLE - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard resistance 

TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
C13-1 (CCS) - H29-26 (CCS) Always Below 1 Ω
H29-26 (CCS) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
C13-1 (CCS) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
