AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1608/84, B1617/84, B1618/84

DTC Code DTC Name
B1608/84 Front Satellite Sensor Bus LH Initialization Incomplete
B1617/84 Lost Communication with Front Airbag Sensor LH
B1618/84 Front Airbag Sensor LH Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The front airbag sensor LH circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly and front airbag sensor LH.

The front airbag sensor LH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the center airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbag should be deployed.

These DTCs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front airbag sensor LH circuit.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CONNECTORS


    1. Turn the power switch off.

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

      Note

      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 center airbag sensor assembly and front airbag sensor LH. Also check that the connectors that link the engine room main wire and instrument panel wire are properly connected.
