Go to Step 4

Caution: When you are performing service on or near the SIR components or the SIR wiring, you must disable the SIR system. Refer to Disabling the SIR System. Failure to follow the correct procedure could cause air bag deployment, personal injury, or unnecessary SIR system repairs.

1. Test the resistance of the left hand steering wheel control switches.
2. Press the steering wheel control buttons to the correct function, one at a time, and compare the measured values to those shown.

Are all the resistances approximately equal to the specified values?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 5

1. Inspect for poor connections at the steering wheel control switch. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.
2. If a poor connection is not found, replace the left steering wheel control switch. Refer to Steering Wheel Control Switches Replacement .

Is the repair complete?

Go to Step 9
