Short in Front Passenger Side Squib Circuit - Airbag System (for TMC Made)





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM (for TMC Made): B1805/52-B1808/52: Short in Front Passenger Side Squib Circuit
B1808/52 - Short to B+ in Front Passenger Side Squib Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The front passenger side squib circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly and the front passenger airbag assembly.

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

These DTCs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front passenger side squib circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
* Perform the simulation method by selecting "check mode" (signal check) with Techstream Check Mode Procedure.
* After selecting "check mode" (signal check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough road Check Mode Procedure.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SQUIB)

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.





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

(c) Disconnect the connectors from the front passenger airbag assembly.

(d) Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ohms) to connector E (orange connector).

CAUTION:
Never connect the tester to the front passenger airbag assembly (front passenger side squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

NOTICE:
* Do not forcibly insert the SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
* Insert straight the SST into the terminals of the connector.

SST : 09843-18061

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

(f) Turn the ignition switch on (IG), and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(g) Clear the DTCs stored in the memory Airbag System (for TMC Made).

(h) Turn the ignition switch off.

(i) Turn the ignition switch on (IG), and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(j) Check the DTCs Airbag System (for TMC Made).

OK:

DTC B1805, B1806, B1807, B1808, or 52 is not output.

HINT
Codes other than DTC B1805, B1806, B1807, B1808, and 52 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

OK -- REPLACE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY Removal
NG -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK CONNECTOR

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

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

(c) Disconnect SST from connector E.

(d) Check that the instrument panel wire assembly connectors (on the front passenger airbag assembly side) are not damaged.

OK:

The lock button is not disengaged, or the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE ASSEMBLY
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SQUIB CIRCUIT

(a) Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor assembly.





(b) Check for a short to B+ in the circuit.

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

(2) Turn the ignition switch on (IG).

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

Standard voltage:





(c) Check for an open in the circuit.

(1) Turn the ignition switch off.
