AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1633/81

DTC Code DTC Name
B1633/81 Driver Side Rear Airbag Sensor Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The rear airbag sensor RH is composed of a safing sensor, diagnostic circuit, lateral deceleration sensor, etc. When the airbag sensor assembly receives a signal from the lateral deceleration sensor, the airbag sensor assembly judges whether the SRS should be activated.If a malfunction is detected in the side satellite sensor bus circuit, the airbag sensor assembly stores DTC B1633/81.
