STEP 3. Check the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner. (Using 
scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code.)

(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner connector D-21. 

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 MB991865 to special tool MB991884.
(4) Connect special tool MB991884 to the D-21 harness side 

connector.

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

diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC B1473 set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner. Refer to 

P.52B-380

. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Check the driver's seat belt pre-tensioner circuit. 
Measure the resistance at the SRS-ECU connector C-122.

(1) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-122.

(2) Disconnect driver's seat belt pre-tensioner connector D-21. 

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.

CAUTION

Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front 
side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be 
weakened.
(3) Check for continuity between C-122 harness side connector 

terminals 7, 8 and body ground.
It should be open circuit.

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check 

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC B1473 sets, 
replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-365

). Then go 

to Step 6.

NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check harness wires for short circuit to ground 
between SRS-ECU connector C-122 (terminal No.7 and 8) 
and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner connector D-21 
(terminal No.1 and 2).

Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector 

C-122 (terminal No.7 and 8) and driver's seat belt 
pre-tensioner connector D-21 (terminal No.1 and 2) in 
good condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Replace the harness wires between SRS-ECU 

connector C-122 and driver's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-26. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 6. 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 B1473 set?
