Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis ).

STEP 2. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor

STEP 3. Check the passenger's air bag module. (Using 
diagnostic tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble 
code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect the passenger’s air bag module connector 

C-110.

(3) Slide the outer housing of the clock spring side of 

passenger’s air bag module connector C-110 in the arrow 
direction shown, and disconnect the connector.

(4) Connect special tool MB991865 to special tool MB991866.

CAUTION

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

connector C-110 (terminal No.1 and 2 ) by testprobe.

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

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC B1411 set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the passenger's air bag module (Refer to

STEP 4. Check the harness for open circuit between 
SRS-ECU connector C-121 (terminal No.37 and 36) and the 
passenger's air bag module connector C-110 (terminal 
No.1 and 2).
(1) Unclip passenger’s air bag module connector C-110.

(2) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-121 and passenger's air 

bag module connector C-110.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front 
side directly as the connector contact pressure may be 
weakened.
(3) Check for continuity between the following terminals. It 

should be less than 2 ohms.

• SRS-ECU connector C-121 (terminal No.37) and the 

passenger’s air bag module connector C-110 (terminal 
No.1)

• SRS-ECU connector C-121 (terminal No.36) and the 

passenger’s air bag module connector C-110 (terminal 
No.2)
