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, seat-back cushion, and/or ODS unit is replaced, do this procedure to initialize the OPDS sensor with the HDS unit.
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 memory. See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview
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 SRS, then Calibration. In the Calibration Menu, select ODS UNIT INITIALIZATION. Follow the
screen prompts to initialize the ODS unit.
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 OPDS sensor/seat-back cover/pad 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
Seat Weight Sensor Initialization
When you replace the SRS unit, the front passenger's seat assembly, or the ODS unit, calibrate the seat weight sensor with the HDS unit.
While calibrating the ODS unit, observe these precautions:
-
Make sure all components of the front passenger's seat are correctly installed.
