INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work Click here.

Tech Tips


  • When DTC B1650/32 is detected as a result of troubleshooting for the airbag system, check for DTCs stored in the occupant detection ECU. When DTC B1793 is output, perform troubleshooting for the DTC.

  • 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, lift and 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 power switch off.

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

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

      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 front occupant classification sensor LH, rear occupant classification sensor LH and occupant detection ECU.

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

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

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