CAUTION:
- All SRS electrical wiring harnesses are covered with yellow outer insulation.
- Before disconnecting the SRS wire harness, install the short connector(s) on the airbag(s).
- Replace the entire affected SRS harness assembly if it has an open circuit or damaged wiring.

If the inspection for a particular DTC requires the use of the Test Harness (O7LAJ -PT3010A): Connect the wire harness to the Test Harness, and/or connect the Test Harness to the TCM according to the troubleshooting flowchart.
NOTE:
- Only the A and D sections of the Test Harness are used for A/T troubleshooting.
- Unless otherwise noted, use only the Digital Multimeter, KS-AHM-32-003, for testing.

TCM RESET PROCEDURE
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Remove the Back Up fuse (7.5 A) from the under-hood fuse/relay box for 10 seconds to reset the TCM. NOTE: Disconnecting the Back Up fuse also cancels the radio anti-theft code, preset stations and the clock setting. Get the customer's code number and make note of the radio presets before removing the fuse so you can reset them.

FINAL PROCEDURE
NOTE: This procedure must be done after any troubleshooting.
1. Remove the jumper wire from the Service Check Connector.
2. Reset the TCM.
3. Set the radio preset stations and clock setting.
