Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection procedure
1 Check d squib circuit(airbag sensor assy center – horn button assy)

- Disconnect the negative (–) terminal cable from the battery, and wait at least for 90 seconds.
- disconnect the connectors between the airbag sensor assy center and the horn button assy.
- release the airbag activation prevention mechanism of the connector (on the airbag sensor assy center side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the spiral cable sub–assy .
- for the connector (on the spiral cable sub–assy side) between
the horn button assy and the spiral cable sub–assy,
measure the resistance between d+ and d–.
Ok: resistance: 1 mw or higher


2 Check air bag sensor assy center
Sst 09843–18040

- Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assy center.
- connect the negative (–) terminal cable to the battery, and wait at least for 2 seconds.
- turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- clear the dtc stored in memory .
- turn the ignition switch to lock, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- check the dtc .
Ok: dtc b0100/13 is not output.
Hint
: codes other than code b0100/13 may be output at this time, but they are not relevant to this check.


3 Check d squib
Sst 09843–18040

- Turn the ignition switch to lock.
- disconnect the negative (–) terminal cable from the battery, and wait at least for 90 seconds.
- connect the horn button assy connectors.
- connect the negative (–) terminal cable to the battery, and wait at least for 2 seconds.
- turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- clear the dtc stored in memory .
- turn the ignition switch to lock, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
- check the dtc .
Ok: dtc b0100/13 is not output.
Hint: codes other than code b0100/13 may be output at this time, but they are not relevant to this check.

4 Check instrument panel wire(airbag sensor assy center – spiral cable sub–assy)

- Disconnect the connector of the instrument panel wire.
- release the airbag activation prevention mechanism of the connector (on the airbag sensor assy center side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the spiral cable sub–assy .
- for the connector (on the spiral cable sub–assy side) between
the airbag sensor assy center and the spiral cable
sub–assy, measure the resistance between d+ and d–.
Ok: resistance: 1 mΩ or higher


5 Check spiral cable sub–assy

- Release the airbag activation prevention mechanism of the spiral cable sub–assy connector on the airbag sensor assy center side .
- for the orange connector (on the spiral cable sub–assy
side) between the horn button assy and the spiral cable
sub–assy, measure the resistance between d+ and d–.
Ok: resistance: 1 mΩ or higher

Aluminum wheel precautions (if equipped)
● Use only Toyota wheel nuts and wrenches designed for use with your aluminum
wheels.
● When rotating, repairing or changing your tires, check that the wheel nuts are
still tight after driving 1000 miles (1600 km).

If the vehicle is submerged or
water on the road is rising
This vehicle is not designed
to be able to drive on roads
that are deeply flooded with
water. Do not drive on roads
where the roads may be
submerged or the water
may be rising. It is dangerous
to remain in the vehicle,
if it is anticipated that the
vehicle will be flooded or
set adrift. Remain calm ...
