stages, and then disconnect the connector.

(2) Connect G-04 harness side connector to special 

tool resistor harness (MB991884).

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from 
its front side directly as the connector contact 
pressure may be weakened.
(3) Resistance measurement between the following 

terminals. 

• SRS-ECU connector C-118 terminal No.62 

and special tool terminal No.1

• SRS-ECU connector C-118 terminal No.61 

and special tool terminal No.2

OK: Less than 2 

Ω

Q: Are the check results normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Repair the harness wire between SRS-ECU 
connector C-118 (terminal No.61and 62) 
and curtain air bag module (RH) connector 
G-04 (terminal No.1 and 2).

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code No.B1441 set?

YES : 

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-223

).

NO : 

An intermittent malfunction is suspected 
(Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

P.00-5

).

TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

Code No.B1442: Curtain air bag module (squib) (RH) system (short-circuited to the earth)

CAUTION

If diagnosis code B1442 is set in the SRS-ECU, 
always diagnose the CAN main bus line.

OPERATION

The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by 
detecting signals from the side impact sensors and 
the side air bag safing G-sensor. If the impact is over 
a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an 
ignition signal. At this time, if the side air bag safing 
G-sensor is on, the curtain air bag module will 
deploy. 

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

This diagnosis code is set if the curtain air bag 
module squib (RH) wire(s) are short-circuited to the 
earth.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Short to the earth in the curtain air bag module 

(squib) (RH) harness

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics

Use the MUT-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 
54D, Diagnosis 

P.54D-16

).

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.

Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
(1) Erase the diagnosis code.
(2) Ignition: LOCK (OFF) position to ON
(3) On completion, check that the diagnosis code is 

not reset.

Q: Is the diagnosis code 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.00-5

).

STEP 3. Check the curtain air bag module (RH). 
(MUT-III diagnosis code.)
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2) Disconnect curtain air bag module connector 

G-04. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to unlock the 
locking button at the harness side connector by 
withdrawing it toward you in two stages, 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 G-04 

harness side connector.

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

diagnosis code.

Q: Is diagnosis code B1442 set?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Replace the curtain air bag module (RH) 
(Refer to 

P.52B-231

). 

STEP 4. Check the curtain air bag module (RH) 
circuit. Resistance measurement at the SRS-ECU 
connector C-118.

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-118.

(2) Disconnect curtain air bag module connector 

G-04. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to unlock the 
locking button at the harness side connector by 
withdrawing it toward you in two stages, and then
