ODS Unit Initialization
NOTE:
-
After ODS unit is replaced, do this procedure to initialize the ODS unit.
-
ODS unit initialization will initialize both OPDS sensor and seat weight sensor.
OPDS Sensor Initialization
After a seat-back cover/pad, and/or ODS unit is replaced, do this procedure to initialize the OPDS sensor with the HDS.
NOTE:
-
A new (uninitialized) ODS unit installed with a faulty OPDS sensor can cause DTC 85-71 and DTC 85-78.
-
Before initializing the ODS unit, make sure the battery is fully charged.
1. Clear the DTC with the HDS See: Restraint Systems/Air Bag Systems/Testing and Inspection/Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
2. Make sure the front passenger's seat is dry. Set the seat-back in a normal position, and make sure there is nothing on the seat.
3. Make sure the ignition switch is in LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
4. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A).
5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
6. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the SRS unit. If it does not communicate, troubleshoot the DLC circuit See: Powertrain
Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/DLC Circuit Troubleshooting.
7. From the HDS Main Menu, select SRS, then INITIALIZATION. In the INITIALIZATION Menu, select ODS Initialization. Follow the prompts
until the OPDS sensor initialization has been completed.
8. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
9. Disconnect the HDS from the DLC.
NOTE: If the ODS unit fails to initialize after several attempts, replace the seat-back cover/pad with equipped OPDS sensor See: Body and
Frame/Seats/Seat Cover/Service and Repair/Front Seat-Back Cover Replacement and retry. If the ODS unit continues to fail to initialize, replace the
ODS unit See: Service and Repair/ODS Unit Replacement.
