DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES <SRS-ECU>

DTC B1206: Passenger’s Air Bag OFF Indicator Light (Open Circuit)

CAUTION

If DTC B1206 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 fusible link (34).

• 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. In the following situations, the indi-
cator will stay on to show that the passenger’s
(front) air bag is not operational.

• The occupant is determined to be less than

66 lbs (30 kg) by the occupant classifica-
tion-ECU.

• The front passenger’s seat is not occupied.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC will be set if an open circuit has occurred in
the wiring harness between the passenger’s air bag
OFF indicator light and the SRS-ECU.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

• Malfunction of the passenger’s air bag OFF indi-

cator light

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)

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 passenger’s air bag OFF indicator light.
(1) It is checked whether the passenger’s air bag OFF indicator

light is normal (Refer to

P.52B-30

).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace center panel assembly (Refer to GROUP

52A

− Instrument Panel Assembly

P.52A-2

).

STEP 4. Check the harness for open circuit between
SRS-ECU connector C-28 (terminal No.18) and the center
panel assembly connector C-104 (terminal No.11).
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the

harness side connector, turn the lock lever to the direction
of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the
C-28 SRS-ECU connector.

(3) Disconnect the center panel assembly connector C-104.

(4) Check for continuity between the following terminals. It

should be less than 2 ohms.

• SRS-ECU connector C-28 (terminal No.18) and the cen-

ter panel assembly connector C-104 (terminal No.11)

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the harness wires.

STEP 5. Measure the voltage at the center panel assembly
connector.
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect the C-104 center panel assembly connector.
(3) Connect the negative battery terminal.
(4) Ignition switch: ON.
(5) Measure the voltage between the C-104 harness side

connector terminal No. 8 and body ground.

• The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery

positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair the wiring harness between the C-317

ETACS-ECU connector terminal No. 5 and the C-104
instrument center panel assembly connector terminal
No. 8.
