DTC Troubleshooting: 85-61, 85-62

DTC 85-61:

No Signal From the ODS Unit

DTC 85-62:

Incorrect Data From the ODS Unit

NOTE: Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, review SRS Precautions and Procedures Service and Repair, General Troubleshooting Information Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes, and Battery Terminal Disconnection and Reconnection Procedures.

1. Clear the DTC with the HDS Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then wait for 10 seconds.

3. Check for DTCs with the HDS Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Is DTC85-61 or 85-62 indicated?

YES -

Go to step 4.

NO -

Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes. If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot the DTC.�

4. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

5. Check the No. 12 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.

Is the fuse OK?

YES -

Go to step 6.

NO -

Replace the fuse, then turn the ignition switch to ON (II). If the fuse blows again, check for a short in the No. 12 (7.5 A) fuse circuit (dashboard wire harness, SRS floor wire harness, or ODS unit harness).

6. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

7. Disconnect the ODS unit harness 18P connector (A) from the ODS unit.






8. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

9. Measure the voltage between body ground and ODS unit harness 18P connector terminal No. 1. There should be battery voltage.





Is there battery voltage?

YES -

Go to step 10.

NO -

Open between the No. 12 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box and the ODS unit 18P connector terminal No. 1(dashboard wire harness, SRS floor wire harness, or ODS unit harness); replace the faulty harness, then clear the DTC.�

10. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

11. Measure the resistance between body ground and ODS unit harness 18P connector terminal No. 12. There should be less than 1.0 Ohms.





Is resistance as specified?

YES -

Go to step 12.

NO -

Open in the SRS floor wire harness, the ODS unit harness, poor connection at the ground (G702) Harness Locations or poor connection at the ODS unit harness 18P connector, and the ODS unit. Check the connectors; if the connection is OK, replace the faulty harness, then clear the DTC.�

12. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then wait at least 3 minutes.

13. Disconnect SRS unit connector B (39P) from the SRS unit Service and Repair.

14. Measure the resistance between body ground and SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1. There should be an open circuit or at least 1 MOhms.





Is the resistance as specified?

YES -

Go to step 15.

NO -

Short to ground between SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1 and ODS unit 18P connector terminal No. 7 (dashboard wire harness, SRS floor wire harness, or ODS unit harness); replace the faulty harness, then clear the DTC.�

15. Measure the resistance between SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1 and ODS unit harness 18P connector terminal No. 7. There should be less than 1.0 Ohms.





Is the resistance as specified?

YES -

Go to step 16.

NO -

Open between SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1 and ODS unit 18P connector terminal No. 7 (dashboard wire harness, SRS floor wire harness, or ODS unit harness); replace the faulty harness, then clear the DTC.�

16. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

17. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

18. Measure the voltage between body ground and SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1. There should be less than 0.2 V.





Is the voltage as specified?

YES -

Go to step 19.

NO -

Short to power between SRS unit connector B (39P) terminal No. 1 and ODS unit 18P connector terminal No. 7 (dashboard wire harness, SRS floor wire harness, or ODS unit harness); replace the faulty harness, then clear the DTC.�

19. Replace the ODS unit ODS Unit Replacement, then clear the DTC.

20. Check for DTCs with the HDS Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Is DTC 85-61 or 85-62 indicated?

YES -

Replace the SRS unit SRS Unit Replacement.�

NO -

This system is OK.�
