AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B167B, B167C

DTC Code DTC Name
B167B Lost Communication with Front Door Pressure Sensor LH
B167C Front Door Pressure Sensor LH Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

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

The door side airbag sensor LH and side No. 2 airbag sensor LH detect impacts to the vehicle and send 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 LH circuit (bus 1).
