STEP 5. Check the harness between SRS-ECU connector
C-121 (terminal No.42) and passenger’s seat belt warning
light C-07 (terminal No.3).

• Check the passenger’s seat belt warning light output lines

for open circuit.

NOTE: After inspecting intermediate connector C-22 inspect
the wiring harness. If intermediate connector C-22 is damaged,
repair or replace them. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Con-
nector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 6 .

Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1487 sets,
replace the SRS-ECU. (Refer to

P.52B-365

.) Then go

to Step 6 .

NO : Repair the harness wires. Then go to Step 6 .

DTC B1488: Passenger’s Air Bag OFF Indicator Light Drive Circuit System Fault 2.

CAUTION

If DTC B1488 is set in the SRS-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN main bus line.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Power for the passenger’s air bag OFF indicator

light is supplied from the ignition switch (IG1).

• The passenger’s air bag OFF indicator light illu-

minates when the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" position and goes out after approximately
seven seconds if there is not a malfunction in the
SRS system.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

• This DTC is set under one of the following cases

while the SRS-ECU is monitoring the passen-
ger’s air bag OFF indicator light drive circuit:

• When a short circuit occurs in the passen-

ger’s air bag OFF indicator light drive circuit.

• When a malfunction is detected in the output

transistor inside the SRS-ECU.

However, if the vehicle condition returns to normal,
DTC B1488 will be automatically erased, and the
assenger’s air bag OFF indicator light will go out.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan 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 scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus
line.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the

scan tool

P.52B-30

."

(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

P.54C-14

).
