DESCRIPTION
The airbag cut-off switch circuit consists of the airbag sensor assembly and airbag cut-off switch.
The front passenger airbag can be optionally deactivated via this circuit by turning the airbag cut-off switch to the OFF position.
If the front passenger airbag 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.
| DTC No. | DTC Detecting Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| B1651/33 | Any of the following conditions is met:
|
|
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Terminals F16-11 (MSW+) and F16-12 (MSW-) of the airbag sensor assembly 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 ignition switch off.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.
Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and airbag cut-off switch.
| OK |
|---|
| The connectors are properly connected. |
If the connector is not connected securely, reconnect the connector and proceed to the next inspection.
Disconnect the connectors from the airbag sensor assembly and airbag cut-off switch.
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. |
