AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B162B, B162C

DTC Code DTC Name
B162B Side Airbag Sensor Assembly No.2 Lost Communication (RH)
B162C Side Airbag Sensor Assembly No.2 Initialization Error (RH)

DESCRIPTION

The side collision sensor RH circuit (bus 2) consists of the airbag sensor assembly and side No. 1 airbag sensor RH.

The side No. 1 airbag sensor RH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbags and pretensioners should be deployed.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the side collision sensor RH circuit (bus 2).

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

      CAUTION:

      Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and side No. 1 airbag sensor RH.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

      (to Side No. 1 Airbag Sensor RH)

      Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      R35-2 (BFR+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V
      R35-1 (BFR-) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V

    4. Turn the ignition switch off.

    5. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

      CAUTION:

      Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

    6. Using a service wire, connect terminals 28 (BCR+) and 27 (BCR-) of connector B.

      Note

      Do not forcibly insert the service wire into the terminals of the connector when connecting the wire.

    7. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      R35-2 (BFR+) - R35-1 (BFR-) Always Below 1 Ω

    8. Disconnect the service wire from connector B.

    9. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      R35-2 (BFR+) - R35-1 (BFR-) Always 1 MΩ or higher
      R35-2 (BFR+) - Body ground Always 1 MΩ or higher
      R35-1 (BFR-) - Body ground Always 1 MΩ or higher

  4. CHECK SIDE NO. 1 AIRBAG SENSOR RH


    1. B006Z22C02
      *1 Side No. 1 Airbag Sensor LH
      *2 Airbag Sensor Assembly

      Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assembly.

    2. Interchange the side No. 1 airbag sensor RH with LH and connect the connectors.

    3. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

    4. Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

    5. Clear the DTCs stored in memory.


      Body Electrical > SRS Airbag > Clear DTCs

    6. Turn the ignition switch off.
