NOTE

Passenger's (Front) Air Bag Module (Squib) Circuit

OPERATION

• The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is

by detecting signals from the front impact sensors
and the front air bag analogue G-sensor. If the
impact is over a predetermined level, the SRS-
ECU sends an ignition signal. At this time, if the
front air bag safing G-sensor is on, the SRS air

bag will inflate.

• The ignition signal is input to the air bag module

to inflate the air bag.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code is set if one passenger’s (front)
air bag squib wire shorted to the other.

TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-37

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Improper engaged connector or defective short

spring*

• Short circuit between the passenger's (front) air

bag module (squib) circuit terminals

• Damaged connector(s)

• Malfunction of the passenger’s air bag cut off

switch

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

NOTE: *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a
"short" spring (which prevents the air bag from
deploying unintentionally due to static electricity by
shorting the positive wire to the earth wire in the
squib circuit when the connectors are discon-
nected).Therefore, if connector C-02 or C-131 is
damaged or improperly engaged, the short spring
may not be released when the connector is con-
nected.

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1519 set?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Go to Step 3.

STEP 2. Connector lock check: SRS-ECU
connector C-131. (M.U.T.-III diagnosis code)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect the connectors C-131 and then

reconnect them.

(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1410 set?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

The procedure is complete. It is assumed
that diagnosis code B1410 set as connector
C-131 was engaged improperly.

STEP 3. Connector lock check: SRS-ECU
connector C-131 and passenger’s (front) air bag
module connector C-02. (M.U.T.-III diagnosis
code)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect connectors C-02 and C-131, and then

reconnect them. For connector C-02, pull up the
harness side lock lever with a nail and disconnect
the connector lock.

(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1410 set?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

The procedure is complete. It is assumed
that diagnosis code B1410 set as connector
C-02 or C-131 was engaged improperly.

STEP 4. Check the passenger’s air bag cut off
switch.
Check the passenger's air bag cut off switch (Refer
to

P.52B-288

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Replace passenger’s air bag cut off switch

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865)

to special tool resistor harness (MB991866).

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(4) Insert special tool (MB991866) into the harness

side connector C-02 by backprobing.

(5) Check that the passenger's air bag cut off switch

is "ON" position.

(6) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(7) Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1410 set?

YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

Replace the passenger's (front) air bag
module (Refer to

P.52B-268
