Lost Communication with Driver Side - Side Airbag Sensor Assembly - Airbag System (for TMC Made)





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM (for TMC Made): B1622/81,B1623/81,B1632/81,B1633/81,B1642/81,B1643/81: Lost Communication with Driver Side - Side Airbag Sensor Assembly
B1643/81 - Driver Side Satellite Sensor Bus Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The circuit for the side collision sensor LH (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly LH and curtain shield airbag assembly LH) is composed of the center airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor LH, and rear airbag sensor LH.

The side airbag sensor LH and rear airbag sensor LH detect impacts to the vehicle and send signals to the center airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbag should be deployed.

DTC B1622/81, B1623/81, B1632/81, B1633/81, B1642/81, or B1643/81 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the circuit for the side collision sensor LH (to determine deployment of the front seat side airbag assembly LH and curtain shield airbag assembly LH).
