SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-323

STEP 2. 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 the DTC set?

YES : Replace the slide adjuster (RH) (Refer to GROUP 

52A, Front Seat Assembly 

P.52A-24

).

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.00-15

).

DTC B1BA7: Occupant Classification System Verification Required

CAUTION

If DTC B1BA7 is set in the occupant classifica-
tion-ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus 
lines.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The load data from the weight sensor is classified 
with the occupant classification-ECU, and its classi-
fied information is send to SRS-ECU by CAN bus 
line. The SRS-ECU determines the air bag deploy-
ment based on this classified information, and con-
trols the power supply circuit to the inflator. 

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if a light impact is detected by the 
occupant classification-ECU.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of weight sensor

• Malfunction of occupant classification-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with 

CAN communication system)

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

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.

scan tool 

P.52B-28

."

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis 

P.54C-14

).

STEP 2. 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 the DTC B1BA7 set?

YES : Replace the slide adjuster (RH) (Refer to GROUP 

52A, Front Seat Assembly

DTC B1BA8: Occupant classification-ECU Out of Calibration not/Calibrated

CAUTION

If DTC B1BA8 is set in the occupant classifica-
tion-ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus 
lines.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The load data from the weight sensor is classified 
with the occupant classification-ECU, and its classi-
fied information is send to SRS-ECU by CAN bus 
line. The SRS-ECU determines the air bag deploy-
ment based on this classified information, and con-
trols the power supply circuit to the inflator. 

.

DTC SET CONDITION

This DTC is set when the 30 Kg (66 pounds) system 
and 0 Kg (0 pound) system have not been executed.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Zero calibration not executed

• 30 Kg (66 pounds) system and 0 Kg (0 pound) 

system not executed

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with
