STEP 3. Check the side impact sensor (RH)
power supply circuit. Voltage measurement at the
side impact sensor (RH) connector D-01.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect side impact sensor (RH) connector

D-01, 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-01 harness side

connector terminal 2 and body earth.

OK: 9 V or more

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Replace the side impact sensor (RH).

(Refer to

P.52B-236

). 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
C-118 (terminal No.63 and 64) and side impact
sensor (RH) connector D-01 (terminal No.1 and
2).

Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector C-118 (terminal No.63 and 64) and side
impact sensor (RH) connector D-01 (terminal No.1
and 2) in good condition?

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Replace the harness wires between
SRS-ECU connector C-118 (terminal No.63
and 64) and side impact sensor (RH)
connector D-01 (terminal No.1 and 2).

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

YES :

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-223

).

NO :

An intermittent malfunction is suspected

TROUBLESHOOTING

Code No.B1428: Side-Impact sensor (RH) (Squib) for Power Supply Circuit
Code No.B1429: Side-Impact sensor (RH) (Squib) for Communication System

CAUTION

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

OPERATION

The side impact sensor includes an analogue G
sensor and CPU, etc. The CPU monitors the
analogue G sensor output signal. If the CPU judges
that the side-airbags and curtain air bags should be
deployed, it sends a fire signal to the SRS-ECU to
deploy the side-airbags and curtain air bags. 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
diagnosis code.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

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

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Malfunction of the side impact sensor (RH)

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics

Use the MUT-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP
54D, Diagnosis

P.54D-16

).

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
(1) Erase the diagnosis code.
(2) Ignition: LOCK (OFF) position to ON
(3) On completion, check that the diagnosis code is

not reset.

Q: Is the diagnosis code 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 Cope with
Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-5

).

STEP 3.Check the side impact sensor (RH).
(MUT-III diagnosis code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Replace the side impact sensor (RH) with the

side impact sensor (LH).

(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Erase diagnosis code memory, and check the

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1438 or B1439 set?

YES :

Replace the side impact sensor (RH) with a

new one. (Refer to

P.52B-236

). 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
C-118 (terminal No.63 and 64) and side impact
sensor (RH) connector D-01 (terminal No.1 and
2).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Repair the harness wires between
SRS-ECU connector C-118 (terminal No.63
and 64) and side impact sensor (RH)
connector D-01 (terminal No.1 and 2).

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1428 or B1429 set?

YES :

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-223

).

NO :

An intermittent malfunction is suspected
(Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

Code No.B1430: Side-Airbag Module (LH) (Squib) System Fault 1 (Short Circuit between Terminals of
the Squib Circuit)

CAUTION

If diagnosis code B1430 is set in the combination
meter, always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

OPERATION

• The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is

by detecting signals from the left and right side
impact sensors. If the impact is over a
predetermined level, the SRS-ECU sends an
ignition signal. At this time, if the side-airbag
safing G-sensor is on, the SRS side-airbag will
inflate.

• The ignition signal is input to the side-airbag

module to inflate the side-airbag.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

This diagnosis code is set if there is abnormal
resistance between the input terminals of the
side-airbag module (LH) (squib).

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Improper engaged connector or defective short

spring*

• Short circuit between the side-airbag module

(LH) (squib) circuit terminals

• Damaged connector(s)

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

NOTE: *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a
"short" spring (which prevents the air bag from
deploying unintentionally due to static electricity by
shorting the positive wire to the earth wire in the
squib circuit when the connectors are disconnected).
(Refer to

P.52B-5

). Therefore, if connector C-120 or

D-22 is damaged or improperly engaged, the short
spring may not be released when the connector is
connected.

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics

Use the MUT-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2

NO :

Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP
54D, Diagnosis-Can Bus Diagnostic Chart

P.54D-16

).
