SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

DTC B1B09: Passenger's (Front) Air Bag Module (<1st squib>) System (Shorted to Squib Circuit
Power Supply)

DTC B1B0D: Passenger's (Front) Air Bag Module (<2nd squib>) System (Shorted to Squib Circuit
Power Supply

CAUTION

• If DTC B1B09 <1st squib> or B1B0D <2nd

squib> is set in the SRS-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN main bus line.

• When DTC B1B09 is set in the following diag-

nosis, check the 1st squib circuit. When DTC
B1B0D is set, check the 2nd squib circuit.

.

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 SRS
air bag will inflate.

• The ignition signal is input to the air bag module

to inflate the air bag.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance
between the input terminals of the passenger's
(front) air bag module (squib).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

• Short to the power supply in the passenger's

(front) air bag module (squib) harness

• 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

• MB991866: 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 passenger's (front) air bag module.
(Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble
code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Slide the outer housing of passenger’s (front) air bag

module connector C-11 in the arrow direction shown, and
disconnect the connector.

(3) Connect special tool MB991865 to special tool MB991866.

CAUTION

Do not insert a probe into the terminal from its front side
directly, as the connector contact pressure may be weak-
ened.
(4) Insert special tool MB991866 into the harness side

connector C-11 (terminal No.1 and 2 <1st squib> or terminal
No.3 and 4 <2nd squib>) by backprobing.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.

CAUTION

Always DTC B1B0E is set when checking DTC B1B09. This
is because the second side terminal is isolated when
checking it. DTC B1B0E is set but this is not a fault. In
addition, always DTC B1B0A is set when checking DTC
B1B0D because the first side terminal is isolated.
(6) Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check the

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is the checked DTC set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the passenger's (front) air bag module.

(Refer to

P.52B-439

). Then go to Step 6.
