when you take the passenger side vent off and unplug it your left with the male side attached to the metal mount.
if you can push that out it will be easier to test the #2 and #4 male pins with the resistor.
LIke I said, clear any and all codes.
turn key off.
remove vent and unplug.
start car and let it run for a minute or more, turn it off, do it again, and once more just in case, 3 ignition cycles. *idk exactly how may it may take. Could only be one for airbag stuff. iF you get a persistent srs in the instrument panel that doesn't go out when the car first fires up in about 15 seconds after the first cycle then you can stop because you have the code set.
read the codes.
you should get two codes probably. both passenger codes. b1152 should be? one of them I don't remember the other one.
Then I would erase the codes. (if you can)
then key out, car off.
then,,, I would leave the car battery connected if it were me. Someone else may or may not like that. No damage should occur and there shouldn't be any power with the key off for 90 seconds at any of those five male terminals. Still, there is an unwritten rule, and you are messing with wires that eventually feed back to an airbag controller. ALthough remotely and a lot or wire between. But you're only testing a light bulb.
use alligator clips, spare female terminals,however you want to hook onto the #2 and 4 pins, other ends of those to your resistor.
careful not to bend the pins in the housing.
once you're sure it's correct and stable, start the car and watch the instrument panel go through it's checks and watch the lights go out. if the srs light goes out after it's checks then it's good.
don't sit in the passenger seat while doing this.
guessing 2.4ohm resistor. maybe 3.3?? lots of conflicting info out there regarding all things toyota --seatbelt, occupancy and belt clip sensor.
half watt i'd go with.
you can also check that the #2and4 spots are actually correct for the yellow light with the car battery.
insert skinny wire in those spots on the connector that goes to the vent assembly and touch the battery with them. Try both ways + and -
paper clip is fine also, torch tip cleaner, sim card ejector, etc.
yellow light should light up one way or the other.
if not then I'm wrong about positions and need to look around some more.
I do know the red light is the outside pins. Could be same ground for both red and yellow that switches, and or in combo with the middle. 3 inputs going on there.
I could mail you mail you wire with terminals attached if you don't have a decent or acceptable way to attach to the male car side connector, let me know.
five wire connector female first pic
male five wire connector second. (going to the board) red circle. yes I know it's only three wires in the pics, same connector though.
