Lost Communication with Front Passenger Side - Side Airbag Sensor Assembly - Airbag System (for TMC Made)





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM (for TMC Made): B1627/82,B1628/82,B1637/82,B1638/82,B1647/82,B1648/82: Lost Communication with Front Passenger Side - Side Airbag Sensor Assembly
B1648/82 - Front Passenger Side Satellite Sensor Bus Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The circuit for the side collision sensor RH (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly RH and curtain shield airbag assembly RH) is composed of the center airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor RH, and rear airbag sensor RH.

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

DTC B1627/82, B1628/82, B1637/82, B1638/82, B1647/82, or B1648/82 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the circuit for the side collision sensor RH (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly RH and curtain shield airbag assembly RH).
