Test point 1	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector No. 1 (on the front passenger's seat wire harness)
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there about 5 V?


	YES

The SWSP3 wire is OK. Go to step 3.


	NO

Open in the front passenger's seat wire harness; replace the front passenger's seat wire harness, then clear the DTC.?

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
Test condition	Front passenger's weight sensor unit connector B (6P): disconnected
	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector (on the front passenger's seat wire harness): disconnected
Test point 1	Front passenger's weight sensor unit connector B (6P) No. 2
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there an open circuit, or at least 1 M??


	YES

The SWS3 wire is not shorted. Go to step 4.


	NO

Short to ground in the front passenger's seat wire harness; replace the front passenger's seat wire harness, then clear the DTC.?

Shorted wire check (SWS3 line to SWS3G line):

?1.

Measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
Test condition	Front passenger's weight sensor unit connector B (6P): disconnected
	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector (on the front passenger's seat wire harness): disconnected
Test point 1	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector No. 2 (on the front passenger's seat wire harness)
Test point 2	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector No. 3 (on the front passenger's seat wire harness)

Is there an open circuit, or at least 1 M??


	YES

The SWS3 and SWS3G wires are not shorted. Go to step 5.


	NO

Short to another wire in the front passenger's seat wire harness; replace the front passenger's seat wire harness, then clear the DTC.?

Open wire check (SWS3 lines):

Open wire check (SWS3 lines)

?1.

Measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	Front passenger's weight sensor unit connector B (6P): disconnected
	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector (on the front passenger's seat wire harness): disconnected
Test point 1	Front passenger's weight sensor unit connector B (6P) No. 2
Test point 2	Front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side) 3P connector No. 2 (on the front passenger's seat wire harness)

Is there 1.0 ? or less?


	YES

Faulty front passenger's weight sensor (front outer side); replace the front passenger's seat rail including all four front passenger's weight sensors, then clear the DTC.?


	NO

Open in the front passenger's seat wire harness; replace the front passenger's seat wire harness, then clear the DTC.?
