for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The front airbag sensor RH circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly and front airbag sensor RH.
The front airbag sensor RH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the center airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbag should be deployed.
DTC B1612/83 or B1613/83 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front airbag sensor RH circuit.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS
  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

  1. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the center airbag sensor assembly and the front airbag sensor RH.

    OK:
    The connectors are properly connected.



NG
CONNECT CONNECTORS PROPERLY
OK


2.CHECK CONNECTORS
  1. Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor assembly and front airbag sensor RH.

  1. Check that the connectors (on the center airbag sensor assembly side and front airbag sensor RH side) are not damaged.

    OK:
    The connectors are not deformed or damaged.



NG
REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK

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

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

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

    Standard Voltage:
    Tester Connection
    Switch Condition
    Specified Condition
    A12-2 (+SR) - Body ground
    Ignition switch ON
    Below 1 V
    A12-1 (-SR) - Body ground
    Ignition switch ON
    Below 1 V

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

  1. Using a service wire, connect terminals 29 (+SR) and 27 (-SR) of connector B.

    NOTICE:
    Do not forcibly insert a service wire into the terminals of the connector when connecting the wire.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    A12-2 (+SR) - A12-1 (-SR)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω

  1. Disconnect the service wire from connector B.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    A12-2 (+SR) - A12-1 (-SR)
    Always
    1 MΩ or higher
    A12-2 (+SR) - Body ground
    Always
    1 MΩ or higher
    A12-1 (-SR) - Body ground
    Always
    1 MΩ or higher

4.CHECK FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR RH
C158831E13
  1. Connect the connectors to the center airbag sensor assembly.

  1. Interchange the front airbag sensor RH with LH and connect the connectors to them.

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

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

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

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
