INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
  1. Perform the simulation method by selecting check mode (Signal Check) using the intelligent tester (Click here).
  2. 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 (Click here).

1.CHECK CONNECTORS


    C165141E26

  1. Turn the power switch off.

  1. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

    CAUTION:
    Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

  1. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the curtain shield airbag assembly LH and center airbag sensor assembly.

    OK:
    The connectors are properly connected.

    HINT:
    If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.

  1. Disconnect the connectors from the curtain shield airbag assembly LH and center airbag sensor assembly.

  1. Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.

    OK:
    The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

  1. Check that the floor wire connector (on the curtain shield airbag assembly LH side) is not damaged.

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

  1. Check that the short spring for the floor wire with the activation prevention mechanism is not deformed or damaged.

    OK:
    The short spring is not deformed or damaged.

2.CHECK CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY LH (CURTAIN SHIELD SQUIB LH)


    C210793E01

  1. Connect the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly.

  1. Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector C.

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

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

SST
09843-18061  

  1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

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

  1. Clear the DTCs stored in the memory (Click here).

  1. Turn the power switch off.

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

  1. Check for DTCs (Click here).

    OK:
    DTC B1835, B1836, B1837, B1838 or 58 is not output.
