TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-111

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the driver's seat belt 
pre-tensioner. (Check whether the diagnosis 
code is reset.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner 

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to 
pull out the locking button at the harness side 
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) 

to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).

(4) Connect special tool (MB991884) to the D-43 

harness side connector.

(5) Connect the negative battery terminal.

(6) Erase diagnosis code memory, and check the 

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code 67 set?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Replace the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner 
(Refer to 

P.52B-188

). Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Measure the resistance at the SRS-ECU 
connector C-114.

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-114.

(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner 

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to 
pull out the locking button at the harness side

connector, and then disconnect the connector.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from 
its front side directly as the connector contact 
pressure may be weakened.
(3) Measure the resistance between C-114 harness 

side connector terminals 29, 30 and body earth.

OK: Open circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and 

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code 
67 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-178

). Then go to Step 4      .

NO : 

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Connector check: SRS-ECU connector 
C-114 and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-43

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Check the harness wires for short circuit to 

the earth between SRS-ECU connector 
C-114 (terminal No.29 and 30) and driver's 
seat belt pre-tensioner connector D-43 
(terminal No.2 and 1), and repair if 
necessary. Then go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 4 .

STEP 4. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 67 set?

YES : 

Return to Step 1.

NO : 

The procedure is complete (If no 
malfunctions are found in all steps, an 
intermittent malfunction is suspected. Refer 
to GROUP 00

TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-113

Code No.68: Passenger's (front) seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) system (short-circuited to the power 
supply) <L.H. drive vehicles>

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 outputs an 
ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing 
G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code is set if passenger's (front) seat 
belt pre-tensioner wire(s) are short-circuited to the 
power supply.

PROBABLE CAUSES

•

Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

•

Short to the power supply in the passenger's seat 
belt pre-tensioner (squib) harness

•

Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the passenger's seat belt 
pre-tensioner. (Check whether the diagnosis 
code is reset.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to 
pull out the locking button at the harness side 
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) 

to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).

(4) Connect special tool (MB991884) to the D-43 

harness side connector.

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

the diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code 68 set?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Replace the passenger's seat belt 
pre-tensioner (Refer to 

P.52B-188

). Then 

go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Measure the voltage at the SRS-ECU 
connector C-114. (Check whether the diagnosis 
code is reset.)

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-114.

(2) Disconnect passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 

connector D-43. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to 
pull out the locking button at the harness side 
connector, and then disconnect the connector.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position,

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from 
its front side directly as the connector contact 
pressure may be weakened.
(4) Measure the voltage between C-114 harness
