Description and Operation

Description

The main purpose of the SRSCM (Supplemental Restraint System Control Module) is to distinguish between an event that requires deployment of the restraint system and an event that does not. The SRSCM must decide whether or not to deploy the restraint system. When it determines that pretensioners and/or airbag deployment are required, the SRSCM must supply sufficient power to the pretensioners and airbag inflators to start deployment.

The SRSCM determines that an impact may require deployment of the pretensioners and airbags based on data received from the impact sensors and other components in combination with the safing function.

The SRSCM will not be ready to detect a crash or activate the restraint devices until the signals in the SRSCM circuit stabilize.

The SRSCM may be able to activate the restraint devices within approximately 2 seconds, but full operation is guaranteed only after the check is completed.

The SRSCM must perform a diagnostic procedure and turn on the SRS indicator when the ignition is turned on. The system must perform a continuous diagnostic procedure and issue a warning via the warning lamp when a malfunction is detected. Also, the serial diagnostic communication interface will be used to facilitate servicing of the restraint system control unit.

    (Refer to Body - Floor Console Assembly)

  6. Connect the battery negative cable.

  7. After installing the SRSCM, check that the system operates correctly:

    Turn the ignition ON. The SRS indicator should illuminate for approximately six seconds, then turn off.

Variant Coding

After replacing the SRSCM, perform Variant Coding.

Variant Coding Procedure

■ Online Method with KDS

  1. Turn the ignition OFF and connect the KDS.

  2. With the ignition ON and the engine OFF, select the vehicle name and the airbag system.

  3. Select the variant coding mode.

  4. Follow the on-screen instructions as shown below.

1) Initial ACU Option Coding

2) Enter VIN

3) Process Option Coding - 1

4) Process Option Coding - 2

5) Option Coding Completed

■ Offline Method with KDS (When Internet Connection Is Not Available)

1) Initial ACU Option Coding

2) Enter ACU coding code

3) Recheck the ACU coding code.

4) Process Option Coding - 1

5) Process Option Coding - 2
