INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
- If troubleshooting (wire harness inspection) is difficult to
perform, remove the front passenger seat
installation bolts to see the under surface of the seat cushion.
- In the above case, hold the seat so that it does not fall down.
Holding the seat for a long period of time
may cause a problem, such as seat rail deformation. Hold the seat only as
necessary.
1 CHECK DTC
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory.
HINT:
First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification
ECU and then in the center airbag sensor assembly.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Check the DTCs.
OK:
DTC B1790 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B1790 may be output at this time,
but they are not related to this check.
2 CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the
battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Check that the connectors are properly connected to the
occupant classification ECU and the center airbag
sensor assembly.
OK:
The connectors are properly connected.
3 CHECK OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU CIRCUIT (SHORT TO B+)

- Disconnect the connectors from the occupant
classification ECU and the center airbag sensor
assembly.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the
table below.
Standard voltage

4 CHECK OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU CIRCUIT (OPEN)

- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the
battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- w/ Side airbag:
Using a service wire, connect A22-1 (FSR+) and A22-2
(FSR-) of connector "B".
NOTICE:
Do not forcibly insert a service wire into the
terminals of the connector when connecting.
- w/o Side airbag:
Using a service wire, connect A22-3 (FSR+) and A22-10
(FSR-) of connector "B".
NOTICE:
Do not forcibly insert a service wire into the
terminals of the connector when connecting.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the
table below.
Standard resistance

5 CHECK OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU CIRCUIT (SHORT)

- Disconnect the service wire from connector "B".
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the
table below.
Standard resistance

6 CHECK OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU CIRCUIT (SHORT TO GROUND)

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

7 CHECK DTC
- Connect the connectors to the occupant classification
ECU and the center airbag sensor assembly.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory.
HINT:
First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification
ECU and then in the center airbag sensor assembly.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Check the DTCs.
OK:
DTC B1790 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B1790 may be output at this time,
but they are not related to this check.
8 REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the
battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Replace the occupant classification ECU.
HINT:
Perform the inspection using parts from a normal vehicle
if possible.
9 PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Zero point
calibration".
OK:
"COMPLETED" is displayed.
10 PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Sensitivity check".
Standard value:
27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
11 CHECK DTC
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory.
HINT:
First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification
ECU and then in the center airbag sensor assembly.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Check the DTCs.
OK:
DTC B1790 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B1790 may be output at this time,
but they are not related to this check.
