B1812





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1810/53-B1813/53: Short in Driver Side Squib 2nd Step Circuit


DESCRIPTION

The driver side squib 2nd step circuit consists of the center airbag sensor, the spiral cable and the steering pad.

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

These DTCs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the driver side squib 2nd step circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
- Perform the simulation method by selecting the "CHECK MODE" (signal check) with the Techstream Check Mode Procedure.
- After selecting the "CHECK MODE" (signal check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on various types of roads Check Mode Procedure.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK STEERING PAD (DRIVER SIDE SQUIB 2ND STEP)





(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

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

(c) Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad.

(d) Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ohms) to connector E.

CAUTION:
Never connect a tester to the steering pad (driver side squib 2nd step) 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.
- 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 ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(g) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

(h) Turn the ignition switch off.

(i) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(j) Check the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.

OK:

DTC B1810, B1811, B1812, B1813 or 53 is not output.

HINT
DTCs other than DTC B1810, B1811, B1812, B1813 or 53 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

OK -- REPLACE STEERING PAD
NG -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK CONNECTOR

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

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

(c) Disconnect SST from connector E.

(d) Check that the spiral cable connector (on the steering pad side) is not damaged.

OK:

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

NG -- REPLACE SPIRAL CABLE
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK DRIVER SIDE SQUIB 2ND STEP CIRCUIT





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

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

(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(d) Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.

Standard voltage:





(e) Turn the ignition switch off.

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

(g) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

Standard resistance:





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

(i) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

Standard resistance:





OK -- REPLACE CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
NG -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE





(a) Restore the released activation prevention mechanism of connector B to its original position.

(b) Disconnect the instrument panel wire connector from the spiral cable.

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

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(e) Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.

Standard voltage:





(f) Turn the ignition switch off.

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

(h) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

Standard resistance:





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

(j) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

Standard resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE

OK -- REPLACE SPIRAL CABLE
