WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Perform the simulation method by selecting check mode (Signal Check) using the Techstream (See page ).
After selecting check mode (Signal Check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough road (See page ).

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK CONNECTORS

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the front seat outer belt assembly RH and center airbag sensor assembly.

OK:

The connectors are properly connected.

HINT:

If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.

(d) Disconnect the connectors from the front seat outer belt assembly RH and center airbag sensor assembly.

(e) Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.

OK:

The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

(f) Check that the No. 2 floor wire connector (on the front seat outer belt assembly RH side) is not damaged.

OK:

The lock button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.

(g) Check that the short spring for the No. 2 floor wire with the activation prevention mechanism is not deformed or damaged.

OK:

The short spring is not deformed or damaged.

2.	CHECK FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY RH (FRONT PRETENSIONER SQUIB RH)

(a) Connect the connector to the center airbag sensor assembly.

(b) Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to connector C.

CAUTION:

Never connect an electrical tester to the front seat outer belt assembly RH (front pretensioner squib RH) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

NOTICE:

Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.

SST: 09843-18061

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(e) Clear the DTCs stored in memory (See page ).

(f) Turn the ignition switch off.

(g) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(h) Check for DTCs (See page ).

OK:

DTC B1900, B1901, B1902, B1903 or 73 is not output.

HINT:

Codes other than DTCs B1900, B1901, B1902, B1903 and 73 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

REPLACE FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY RH

3.	CHECK NO. 2 FLOOR WIRE (FRONT PRETENSIONER SQUIB RH CIRCUIT)

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

(d) Disconnect the No. 2 floor wire from the center airbag sensor assembly.

(e) Check for a short to B+ in the circuit.

(1) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(3) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
M6-1 (R+) - Body ground	Ignition switch ON	Below 1 V
M6-2 (R-) - Body ground	Ignition switch ON	Below 1 V

(f) Check for an open in the circuit.

(1) Turn the ignition switch off.

(2) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

(3) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
M6-1 (R+) - M6-2 (R-)	Always	Below 1 Ω

(g) Check for a short to ground in the circuit.

(1) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
M6-1 (R+) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher
M6-2 (R-) - Body ground	Always	1 MΩ or higher

(h) Check for a short in the circuit.

(1) Release the activation prevention mechanism built into connector B (See page ).

(2) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
M6-1 (R+) - M6-2 (R-)	Always	1 MΩ or higher
