DESCRIPTION

The front passenger side knee airbag squib circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly and the front passenger side knee airbag.

The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.

These DTCs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front passenger side knee airbag squib 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 Click here.

  • When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.

Tech Tips


  • Perform the simulation method by selecting the "check mode" (signal check) with the intelligent tester Click here.

  • After selecting the "check mode" (signal check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on various types of roads Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FRONT PASSENGER SIDE KNEE AIRBAG (FRONT PASSENGER SIDE KNEE SQUIB)

    A0019DQE04
    *1 Front Passenger Side Knee Squib
    *2 Center Airbag Sensor Assembly
    *3 Front view of wire harness connector: (to Front Passenger Side Knee Squib)
    *4 Connector C

    1. Turn the engine switch off.

    2. Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

    3. Disconnect the connector from the front passenger side knee airbag.

    4. Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ω) to connector C.

      CAUTION:

      Never connect a tester to the front passenger side knee airbag (front passenger side knee airbag squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

      Note


      • Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.

      • Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
