B1838

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1835/58-B1838/58: Short in Curtain Shield Squib LH Circuit
B1838/58 - Short to B+ in Curtain Shield Squib LH Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The curtain shield squib LH circuit consists of the center airbag sensor and curtain shield airbag LH.

The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the curtain shield squib LH circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
* W/ Navigation System:
* After the engine switch is turned off, the display and navigation module display (navigation system) records various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the engine switch off, be sure to wait for the time specified in the following table before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

Waiting Time before Disconnecting Cable from Negative (-) Battery Terminal:





* When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal while performing repairs, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Repair Instruction - Initialization.
HINT
To perform the simulation method, enter check mode (signal check) with the Techstream Check Mode Procedure, and then wiggle each connector of the airbag system or drive the vehicle on various types of road Diagnosis System.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG LH (CURTAIN SHIELD SQUIB LH)

(a) Turn the engine switch off.





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

(c) Disconnect the connectors from the curtain shield airbag LH.

(d) Connect the black wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ohms) to connector C.

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

NOTICE:
* Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.
* Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
SST : 09843-18061

(e) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

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

(g) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

(h) Turn the engine switch off.

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

(j) Check for DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

OK:

DTC B1835, B1836, B1837 or B1838 is not output.

HINT
Codes other than DTC B1835, B1836, B1837 and B1838 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

2. CHECK CONNECTOR

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

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

(c) Disconnect SST from connector C.

(d) Check that the No. 2 floor wire connectors (on the curtain shield airbag LH side) are not damaged.

OK:

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

3. CHECK NO. 2 FLOOR WIRE (CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG LH CIRCUIT)

(a) Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor.





(b) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

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

Standard Voltage:





(d) Turn the engine switch off.

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

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

Standard Resistance:





(g) Release the activation prevention mechanism built into connector B Diagnosis System.

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

Standard Resistance:

4. CHECK CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR

(a) Connect the connectors to the curtain shield airbag LH and center airbag sensor.





(b) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

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

(d) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

(e) Turn the engine switch off.

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

(g) Check for DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

OK:

DTC B1835, B1836, B1837 or B1838 is not output.

HINT
Codes other than DTC B1835, B1836, B1837 and B1838 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
