STEP 3. Check the side impact sensor (RH) power supply
circuit. Measure the voltage at the side impact sensor (RH)
connector D-35.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect side impact sensor (RH) connector D-35, and

measure at the wiring harness side.

(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front
side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be
weakened.
(5) Measure the voltage between D-35 harness side connector

terminal 2 and ground.
Voltage should measure 9 volts or more

Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified range?

YES : Replace the side impact sensor (RH) (Refer to

P.52B-247

). Then go to Step 5.

NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the harness wires for open circuit or short
circuit between SRS-ECU connector D-26 (terminal No.63
and 64) and side impact sensor (RH) connector D-35
(terminal No.1 and 2).
Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector

D-26 (terminal No.63 and 64) and side impact sensor
(RH) connector D-35 (terminal No.1 and 2) in good
condition?
YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1427 sets,
replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-234

). Then go

to Step 5.

NO : Replace the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector D-26 and side impact sensor (RH)
connector D-35. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is DTC B1427 set?

YES : Return to Step 1.
NO : The procedure is complete.

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-118

DTC B1428: Side-Impact sensor (RH) (Squib) for Power Supply Circuit
DTC B1429: Side-Impact sensor (RH) (Squib) for Communication System

CAUTION

If DTC B1428 or B1429 is set in the SRS-ECU,
always diagnose the CAN main bus line.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The side impact sensor includes an analog G sensor
and CPU, etc. The CPU monitors the analog G sen-
sor output signal. If the CPU judges that the side-air-
bags should be deployed, it sends a fire signal to the
SRS-ECU to deploy the side-airbags. In addition, the
CPU diagnoses the internal components of the side
impact sensor. If a malfunction occurs, it requests the
SRS-ECU to set a diagnostic trouble code.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

These DTCs are set if communication between the
side impact sensor (RH) and the SRS-ECU is not
possible or communication is faulty.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Malfunction of the side impact sensor (RH)

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

• Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-

90

• Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-

80

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991958: diagnostic tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN

communication system)

STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, diagnose the
CAN bus line.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958. Refer to "How to

connect the diagnostic tool

P.52B-19

."

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C,

Diagnosis ).

STEP 2. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor

engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunctions ).
