    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK DTC 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
    3. Connect the connector to the occupant classification ECU.
    4. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    5. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
    6. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    7. Clear the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    8. Clear the DTCs stored in the center airbag sensor assembly. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    9. Turn the power switch off.
    10. Turn the power switch on (IG), and wait for at least 10 seconds.
    11. Check for DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .

      OK

      DTC B1794 is not output.

      HINT: 

      Codes other than DTC B1794 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

    NG → See step   4 

    OK → See step   8 

  4. REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
    3. Replace the occupant classification ECU. Refer to REMOVAL .

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  5. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION 
    1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
    2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    3. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    4. Using the Techstream, perform Zero Point Calibration. Refer to INITIALIZATION .

      OK

      "Zero Point Calibration is complete." is displayed.

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  6. PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK 
    1. Using the Techstream, perform Sensitivity Check. Refer to INITIALIZATION .

      Standard

      27 to 33 kg (59.5 to 72.8 lb)

    NEXT → END 

  7. INSPECT AUXILIARY BATTERY. Refer to  ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION 
  8. USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
