Retractor Solenoid/Solenoid Sensor Switch Test
NOTE:
Perform this test on each shoulder seat belt retractor
- Slide the front seat forward to disconnect the connector from the shoulder seat belt retractor see Fig 1 .
- Connect the voltmeter positive probe to the BLUE/YELLOW (Driver side) or RED/GREEN (Passenger side) terminal and the negative probe to BLACK(1) terminal of the floor wire harness connector. There should be battery voltage when the door is opened.
If there is no voltage, check for:
- An open in Blue/Yellow (driver side) or Red/Green (passenger side) wire.
- Poor ground at G501 or G502.
- Perform control unit input tests.
- With door open, check for continual clicks of solenoid plunger whenever connector is alternately connected and disconnected. If it does not click, replace shoulder seat belt retractor assembly (solenoid is not available separately).
- Connect the 6-P or 4-P connector to the shoulder seat belt retractor
- Check for voltage between BLUE/RED(+) and BLACK(2)(-) terminals of 6-P connector (driver side), or between RED(+) and BLACK(2) terminals of 4-P connector (passenger side). Open or close door. There should be about 5 volts or more when door is closed. If voltage is not as specified, replace shoulder seat belt retractor assembly.
