DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• 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

• MB991865: Dummy resistor

• MB991884: Resistor harness (For Pre-tensioner)

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?

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

Q: Is DTC B1472 set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 3. Check the passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner.
(Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner connector

D-21. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to unlock the locking
button at the harness side connector by withdrawing it
toward you in two stages, and then disconnect the
connector.

(3) Connect special tool MB991865 to special tool MB991884.
(4) Connect special tool MB991884 to the D-21 harness side

connector.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6) Erase diagnostic trouble code memory, and check the

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC B1472 set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner

(Refer to

P.52B-250

). Then go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Check the passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner
circuit. Measure the voltage at the SRS-ECU connector
D-27.
(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector D-27.

(2) Disconnect passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner connector

D-21. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to unlock the locking
button at the harness side connector by withdrawing it
toward you in two stages, and then disconnect the
connector.

(3) 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.
(4) Measure the voltage between D-27 harness side connector

terminals 7, 8 and body ground.
Voltage should measure 0 volt.

Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified range?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1472 sets,
replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-77

). Then go

to Step 6.

NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check the harness wires for short circuit to power
supply between SRS-ECU connector D-27 (terminal No.7
and 8) and passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner connector
D-21 (terminal No.1 and 2).
Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector

D-27 (terminal No.7 and 8). and passenger's seat belt
pre-tensioner connector D-21 (terminal No.1 and 2) in
good condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Replace the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector D-27 and passenger's seat belt
pre-tensioner connector D-21. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 6. 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 B1472 set?

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