AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B16A7/97, B16A8/97

DTC Code DTC Name
B16A7/97 Lost Communication with Pedestrian Detection Sensor Bus LH
B16A8/97 Pedestrian Detection Sensor Bus LH Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The pedestrian detection sensor LH circuit consists of the airbag sensor assembly and pedestrian protection sensor LH.

The pedestrian protection sensor LH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the airbag sensor assembly to determine if the pop up hood should be deployed.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the pedestrian detection sensor LH circuit.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the power switch off.

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

      CAUTION:

      Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and pedestrian protection sensor LH. Also check that the connectors that link the engine room main wire and No. 2 floor wire are properly connected.

      OK
      The connectors are properly connected.

      Tech Tips

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

    4. Disconnect the connectors from the airbag sensor assembly and pedestrian protection sensor LH. Also disconnect the connectors that link the engine room main wire and No. 2 floor wire.

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

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.
