reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 68 set?

YES :

Return to Step 1.

Code No.69: Passenger's (front) seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) system (short-circuited to the earth)
<L.H. drive vehicles>

OPERATION
The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by
detecting signals from the front impact sensors and
the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the impact is
over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an
ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing
G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code is set if passenger's (front) seat
belt pre-tensioner wire(s) are short-circuited to the
earth.

PROBABLE CAUSES

•

Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

•

Short to the earth in the passenger's seat belt
pre-tensioner (squib) harness

•

Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the passenger's seat belt
pre-tensioner. (Check whether the diagnosis
code is reset.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

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

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to
pull out the locking button at the harness side
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865)

to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).

(4) Connect special tool (MB991884) to the D-43

harness side connector.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.

(6) Erase diagnosis code memory, and then check

the diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code 69 set?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Replace the passenger's seat belt
pre-tensioner. (Refer to

P.52B-188

). Then

go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Measure the resistance at the SRS-ECU
connector C-114.

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-114.

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

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to
pull out the locking button at the harness side

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from
its front side directly as the connector contact
pressure may be weakened.
(3) Measure the resistance between C-114 harness

side connector terminals 27, 28 and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code
69 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-178

). Then go to Step 4 .

NO :

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Connector check: SRS-ECU connector
C-114 and passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner
connector D-43

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Check the harness wires for short circuit to

power supply between SRS-ECU connector
C-114 (terminal No.27 and 28) and
passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner
connector D-43 (terminal No.1 and 2), and
repair if necessary. Then go to Step 4.

NO :

Repair or replace it. than go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 69 set?

YES :

Return to Step 1.

NO :

The procedure is complete (If no
malfunctions are found in all steps, an
intermittent malfunction is suspected. Refer
to GROUP 00
