OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1780

DTC Code DTC Name
B1780 Front Occupant Classification Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The front occupant classification sensor LH circuit consists of the occupant classification ECU and front occupant classification sensor LH.

DTC B1780 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front occupant classification sensor LH circuit.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B1780
  • The occupant classification ECU receives a line short circuit signal, an open circuit signal, a short circuit to ground signal or a short circuit to B+ signal in the front occupant classification sensor LH circuit for 2 seconds.

  • Front occupant classification sensor LH malfunction

  • Occupant classification ECU malfunction


  • Front seat frame with adjuster assembly RH (Front occupant classification sensor LH)

  • Occupant classification ECU

  • Front seat wire RH

Tech Tips

When DTC B1650/32 is detected as a result of troubleshooting for the airbag system, check the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU. When DTC B1780 is output, perform troubleshooting for the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips


  • If troubleshooting (wire harness inspection) is difficult to perform, remove the front passenger seat installation bolts to see under the seat cushion.

  • In the above case, hold the seat so that it does not fall down. Hold the seat only as necessary because holding the seat for a long period of time may cause seat rail deformation.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the occupant classification ECU and front occupant classification sensor LH.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

      Tech Tips

      If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.

    4. Disconnect the connectors from the occupant classification ECU and front occupant classification sensor LH.

    5. Check that the terminals of connectors are not damaged.

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

    NG
    OK
  2. CHECK FRONT SEAT WIRE RH (SHORT TO B+)
