AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1620/21, B1622/81

DTC Code DTC Name
B1620/21 Side Airbag Sensor RH Circuit Malfunction
B1622/81 Lost communication with Side Airbag Sensor RH

DESCRIPTION

The side collision sensor RH circuit (to determine deployment of the front seat airbag assembly RH, curtain shield airbag assembly RH and front seat outer belt assembly RH) is composed of the airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor assembly RH, rear airbag sensor RH and door side airbag sensor RH.

The side airbag sensor assembly RH, rear airbag sensor RH and door side airbag sensor RH detect impacts to the vehicle and send signals to the airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbags and pretensioner should be deployed.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the side airbag sensor assembly RH.
