STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between occupant
classification-ECU connector D-39-1 (terminal 1) and
weight sensors D-39-3, D-39-4, D-39-5, and D-39-6 (terminal
2).
Q: Is the wiring harness between occupant

classification-ECU connector D-39-1 (terminal 1) and
weight sensor D-39-3, D-39-4, D-39-5, D-39-6 (terminal 2)
in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set to the occupant classifica-
tion-ECU.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch from "LOCK" (OFF) position to "ON"

position.

(3) Check if DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Replace the slide adjuster (RH) (Refer to GROUP

52A, Front Seat Assembly

P.52A-24

).

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.00-15

).

CAUTION

If DTC B1B79, B1B7E, B1B83 or B1B88 is set in
the occupant classification-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN main bus lines.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The load data from the weight sensor is classified
with the occupant classification-ECU, and its classi-
fied information is send to SRS-ECU by CAN bus
line. The SRS-ECU determines the air bag deploy-
ment based on this classified information, and con-
trols the power supply circuit to the inflator.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if the weight sensor wire is short-cir-
cuited to ground.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Disengaged wire harnesses or connector

• Short to the ground in the weight sensor harness

• Malfunction of the weight sensor

• Malfunction of the occupant classification-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-306

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-28

."

(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

).

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 Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction

P.00-15

).
