AIRBAG SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1623

DTC Code DTC Name
B1623 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly Initialization Error (RH)

DESCRIPTION

The circuit for the side collision sensor RH is composed of the airbag ECU assembly, door side airbag sensor RH, side airbag sensor assembly RH and rear airbag sensor RH.

The side airbag sensor assembly RH detect impacts to the vehicle and send signals to the airbag ECU assembly to determine if the airbag should be deployed.

DTC B1623 is stored when a malfunction is detected in the circuit for the side collision sensor RH.

    2. B0069HRC02
      *1 Side Airbag Sensor Assembly RH
      *2 Rear Airbag Sensor RH
      *3 Floor Wire

      Check that the connectors (on the rear airbag sensor RH side and side airbag sensor assembly RH side) are not damaged.

      Result
      Proceed to
      The connectors are not deformed or damaged
      The connectors are deformed or damaged

      (to Rear Airbag Sensor RH)

      Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L39-3 (BBR-) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) Below 1 V
      L39-4 (BBR+) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) Below 1 V

    4. Turn the engine switch off.

    5. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

    6. Using a service wire, connect terminals 1 (BBR+) and 2 (BBR-) of connector B.
