Airbag Wiring Continuity Testing – Drivers’ Pre Tensioner


Digital Multimeter – set it to the LOWEST
Resistance Range possible. Will show 0.00 (in
reality maybe around 0.02 ohms) when a
connection is good or -.- - when an open
circuit is detected, which means a really bad
connection, a broken wire or a disconnected
connector. Repeat for other connections pins.
A reading over 0.5 Ohms indicates a bad
Sewing Needle inserted in pre-tensioner
connection – most likely is seat connector
connector - swap needle to other
R277. Spray some Electrical switch cleaner to
connector hole, to find connection to ECU Sewing Needle inserted
clean pins. Sometimes just separating and re-
50-way connector. Meter will read 0.00 in connector pin 8
connecting works, but is usually only a
when connection is found. 0.00 (repeat for Pin 9) –
temporary repair.

Airbag Component Testing – Drivers’ Pre-Tensioner


Digital Multimeter – set it to the LOWEST
Resistance Range possible. Will show the
resistance value of the component being
tested – e.g. Pre-tensioner 2.4 Ohms. If
outside the expected range (1.6 to 4.6
Ohms), run test above to determine the Sewing Needle inserted
