AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B162B/85, B162C/85

DTC Code DTC Name
B162B/85 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly No.2 Lost Communication (RH)
B162C/85 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly No.2 Initialization Error (RH)

DESCRIPTION

The side collision sensor RH circuit (bus 2) consists of the airbag sensor assembly and floor side airbag sensor RH.

The floor side airbag sensor RH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbags and pretensioners should be deployed.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the side collision sensor RH circuit (bus 2).

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

      CAUTION:

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

    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the airbag sensor assembly and floor side airbag sensor RH.

      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 floor side airbag sensor RH.

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

      OK
      The terminals are not deformed or damaged.
