SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-100

STEP 4. Check the harness for open circuit between 
SRS-ECU connector D-26 (terminal No.57 and 58) and the 
side-airbag module (RH) connector D-32 (terminal No.1 
and 2).
(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector D-26 and side-airbag 

module (RH) connector D-32.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front 
side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be 
weakened.
(2) Check for continuity between the following terminals. It 

should be less than 2 ohms.

• SRS-ECU connector D-26 (terminal No.57) and the 

side-airbag module (RH) connector D-32 (terminal No.2)

• SRS-ECU connector D-26 (terminal No.58) and the 

side-airbag module (RH) connector D-32 (terminal No.1)

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check 

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1421 sets, 
replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-234

). Then go 

to Step 5.

NO :  Replace the harness wires between SRS-ECU 

connector D-26 and side-airbag module (RH) 
connector D-32. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. 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 B1421 set?

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

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-102

DTC B1422: Side-Airbag Module (RH) (Squib) System Fault Power Supply Circuit (Short-Circuited to 
Power Supply)

CAUTION

If DTC B1422 is set in the combination meter, 
always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is 

by detecting signals from the left and right side 
impact sensors. If the impact is over a predeter-
mined level, the SRS-ECU sends an ignition sig-
nal. At this time, if the side-airbag safing 
G-sensor is on, the SRS side-airbag will inflate.

• The ignition signal is input to the side-airbag 

module to inflate the side-airbag.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

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

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Damaged wiring harnesses or connectors

• Short to the power supply in the side-airbag mod-

ule (RH) (squib) harness

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

• Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-

90

• Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-

80

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

•  MB991958: diagnostic tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN 

communication system)

• MB991865: Dummy resistor

• MB991866: Resistor harness

52B-103

STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, diagnose the 
CAN bus line.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always 
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position 
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool 
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958. Refer to "How to 

connect the diagnostic tool 

P.52B-19

."

(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 lines (Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis-Can Bus Diagnostic Chart ).

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 Use Troubleshooting/Inspection 
Service Points 

− How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunctions ).
