(7) Measure the voltage between C-27 harness side connector

terminals 45, 46 and body ground.
Voltage should measure 1 volt or less.

Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified range?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1C39 sets,
replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to

P.52B-436

). 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 C-27 (terminal No.45
and 46) and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner connector
D-121 (terminal No.1 and 2).
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector C-27 and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner
connector D-121. 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 B1C39 set?

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

DTC B1C3A: Driver's Seat Belt Pre-tensioner (Squib) System (Squib Circuit Open)

CAUTION

If DTC B1C3A is set in the SRS-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN main bus line.

.

CIRCUIT 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 sends an
ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing
G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance
between the input terminals of the driver's seat belt
pre-tensioner (squib).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HITS

• Improper connector contact

• Open circuit in the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner

(squib) circuit

• Malfunction of the SRS-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

CAN Communication System)

• MB991865: Dummy resistor

• MB991884: Resister harness

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-17

).

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

).

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

D-121. 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-121 harness side

connector.

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

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC B1C3A set?

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

(Refer to

P.52B-457

). Then go to Step 5.
