Toyota RAV4 Service Manual: Center airbag sensor assembly malfunction
Description
The center airbag sensor consists of the airbag sensor, the safing sensor, the drive circuit, the diagnosis circuit and the ignition control.
If the center airbag sensor receives signals from the airbag sensor, it determines whether or not the srs should be activated.
Dtc b1000/31 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the center airbag sensor.
Hint:
When a malfunction code is displayed simultaneously with dtc b1000/31, repair the malfunction indicated by this code (except dtc b1000/31) first.
Inspection procedure
- Check center airbag sensor assembly
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds
- Turn the ignition switch on, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Clear the dtcs (see page rs-49).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch on, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Check the dtcs (see page rs-49).
Ok: dtc b1000/31 is not output.
Use simulation method to check
Diagnostic trouble code chart
If a dtc is displayed during the dtc check, check the circuit
listed for the dtc in the table below (refer to the appropriate
page).
Hint:
When the srs warning light remains on and the normal

On-vehicle inspection
Check steering pad assembly (vehicle not involved in collision and
airbag not deployed)
Perform a diagnostic system check (see page rs-
49).
With the steering pad (with airbag) installed on the
vehicle, perform a visual check:
check for cuts, cracks or discoloration on the

Transmission fluid temperature sensor "A" circuit
Description
The automatic transmission fluid (atf) temperature sensor converts the atf
temperature into a
resistance value which is input into the ecm.
The ecm applies a voltage to the temperature sensor through ecm terminal tho1.
The sensor resistance changes with the atf temperature. ...

precautions
If you perform maintenance by yourself, be sure to follow the
correct procedure as given in these sections.
Caution
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may
move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death
