AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1651/33

DTC Code DTC Name
B1651/33 Manual Cut off Switch Trouble

DESCRIPTION

Tech Tips

"Manual cut off switch" refers to the airbag cutoff switch cylinder.

The airbag cutoff switch cylinder circuit consists of the center airbag sensor and airbag cutoff switch cylinder.

The instrument panel passenger airbag and lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag can be optionally deactivated via this circuit by turning the airbag cutoff switch cylinder to the "OFF" position.

If the instrument panel passenger airbag and lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag are deactivated, the airbag cutoff indicator comes on to inform the passengers.

DTC B1651/33 is stored when a malfunction is detected in the airbag cutoff switch cylinder circuit.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B1651/33

One of the following conditions is met:


  • The center airbag sensor detects a line short circuit signal, open circuit signal, short circuit to ground signal or short circuit to B+ signal in the airbag cutoff switch cylinder circuit for 2 seconds.

  • An airbag cutoff switch cylinder malfunction.

  • A center airbag sensor malfunction.

  • Instrument panel wire

  • Airbag cutoff switch cylinder sub-assembly

  • Center airbag sensor assembly

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

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.


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

Tech Tips

The 11 (MSW+) and 12 (MSW-) terminals 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+), it is necessary to release this mechanism.

      Turn the power switch off.

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

    3. Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor and airbag cut off switch cylinder.

    4. Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

    5. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    6. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      N90-2 (PMC+) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) Below 1 V
      N90-1 (PMC-) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) Below 1 V

    7. Turn the power switch off.

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

    9. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N90-2 (PMC+) - N90-1 (PMC-) Always Below 1 Ω

    10. Release the activation prevention mechanism built into connector B Click here.

    11. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N90-2 (PMC+) - N90-1 (PMC-) Always 1 MΩ or higher
      N90-2 (PMC+) - Body ground Always 1 MΩ or higher
      N90-1 (PMC-) - Body ground Always 1 MΩ or higher

    12. Restore the released activation prevention mechanism of connector B to its original condition.
