DESCRIPTION

The curtain shield squib LH 2nd step circuit consists of the center airbag sensor and the curtain shield airbag LH.

The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the curtain shield squib LH 2nd step circuit.

A curtain shield squib LH malfunction. A center airbag sensor malfunction.	Floor wire Curtain shield airbag assembly LH (Curtain shield squib LH 2nd step) Center airbag sensor assembly
B1846/61	When one of the following conditions is met: The center airbag sensor receives an open circuit signal in the curtain shield squib LH 2nd step circuit for 2 seconds. A curtain shield squib LH malfunction. A center airbag sensor malfunction.	Floor wire Curtain shield airbag assembly LH (Curtain shield squib LH 2nd step) Center airbag sensor assembly
B1847/61	When one of the following conditions is met: The center airbag sensor receives a short circuit to ground signal in the curtain shield squib LH 2nd step circuit for 0.5 seconds. A curtain shield squib LH malfunction. A center airbag sensor malfunction.	Floor wire Curtain shield airbag assembly LH (Curtain shield squib LH 2nd step) Center airbag sensor assembly
B1848/61	When one of the following conditions is met: The center airbag sensor receives a short circuit to B+ signal in the curtain shield squib LH 2nd step circuit for 0.5 seconds. A curtain shield squib LH malfunction. A center airbag sensor malfunction.	Floor wire Curtain shield airbag assembly LH (Curtain shield squib LH 2nd step) Center airbag sensor assembly

WIRING DIAGRAM

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

After turning the engine switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work Click here.
When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.

Tech Tips

To perform the simulation method, enter the check mode (signal check) with the intelligent tester Click here, and then wiggle each connector of the airbag system or drive the vehicle on various type of road Click here.

PROCEDURE

CHECK CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG LH (CURTAIN SHIELD SQUIB LH 2ND STEP)
1. Turn the engine switch off.
2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
3. Disconnect the connectors from the curtain shield squib LH 2nd step.
4. Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ω) to connector C.
  
  CAUTION:
  
  Never connect the tester to the curtain shield airbag LH (curtain shield squib LH 2nd step) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.
  Note
  - Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.
  - Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.

CHECK FLOOR WIRE (CURTAIN SHIELD SQUIB LH 2ND STEP CIRCUIT)

Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor.
Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

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

Standard Voltage

Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
K9-1 (CL2+) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	Below 1 V
K9-2 (CL2-) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	Below 1 V

Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

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

Standard Resistance

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
K9-1 (CL2+) - K9-2 (CL2-)	Always	Below 1 Ω

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

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

Standard Resistance

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
K9-1 (CL2+) - K9-2 (CL2-)	Always	1 MΩ or higher
K9-1 (CL2+) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher
K9-2 (CL2-) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher

REPLACE FLOOR WIRE

CHECK CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR
