STEP 6. Check the harness wires for short circuit between
SRS-ECU connector C-27 (terminal No.31 and 32) and
side-air bag module (LH) connector D-29 (terminal No.2
and 1).
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU

connector C-27 and side-air bag module (LH)
connector D-29. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 7. 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 B1C2A set?

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

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

DTC B1C2B: Side-air bag Module (RH) (Squib) System (Shorted to Squib Circuit Ground)

CAUTION

If DTC B1C2B is set in the SRS-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN bus lines.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is

by detecting signals from the side impact sensor
installed on the lower side of the center pillar. If
the impact is over a predetermined level, the
SRS-ECU sends an ignition signal. At this time, if
the side collision safing G-sensor is on, the SRS
air bag will inflate.

• The ignition signal is input to the side-air bag

module to inflate the side-air bag.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance
between the input terminals of the side-air bag mod-
ule (RH) (squib).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Short to ground in the side-air bag module (RH)

(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 "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

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 "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 side-air bag module (RH). (Using scan
tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect the D-31 side-airbag module connector, unlock

the connector by sliding the locking button to the direction of
the arrow as shown in the figure, and then disconnect the
connector.

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

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front
side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be
weakened.
(4) Insert special tool MB991866 into the D-31 harness side

connector by backprobing.

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

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC B1C2B set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the seatback assembly (Refer to GROUP

52A, Front Seat Assembly

P.52A-19

). Then go to

Step 6.
