DESCRIPTION
The airbag cut off switch circuit consists of the airbag ECU assembly and airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly.
The instrument panel passenger airbag assembly and lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag assembly can be optionally deactivated via this circuit by turning the airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly to the OFF position.
If the instrument panel passenger airbag assembly and lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag assembly is deactivated, the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("OFF") comes on to inform the passengers.
DTC B1651/33 is stored when a malfunction is detected in the airbag cut off switch circuit.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
After turning the engine switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.
When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.
After replacing the airbag ECU assembly, refer to initialization.
Tech Tips
Terminals K43-11 (MSW+) and K43-12 (MSW-) of the instrument panel wire in this circuit have an activation prevention mechanism.
This mechanism can be used to check for an open circuit in the wire harness. In case of other checks (check for short, short to ground or short to B+), this mechanism should be released.
PROCEDURE
CHECK CONNECTORS
Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag ECU assembly and airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly.
| OK |
|---|
| The connectors are properly connected. |
Tech Tips
If the connectors are not properly connected, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.
Disconnect the connectors from the airbag ECU assembly and airbag cut off switch cylinder sub-assembly.
Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.
| OK |
|---|
| The terminals are not deformed or damaged. |
Check that the short spring for the instrument panel wire connector with the activation prevention mechanism is not deformed or damaged.
| OK |
|---|
| The short spring is not deformed or damaged. |
