OK: 0 V

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and 

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code 
68 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 passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-43

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Check the harness wires for short circuit to 

power supply between SRS-ECU connector 
C-114 (terminal No.27 and 28) and 
passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-43 (terminal No.1 and 2), and 
repair if necessary. Then go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair or replace it. than go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.

Q: Is diagnosis code 68 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

TROUBLESHOOTING

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-116

Code No.68: Passenger's (front) seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) system (short-circuited to the power 
supply) <R.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-29. 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-29 

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.

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

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

connector D-29. 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 

side connector terminals 27, 28 and body earth.

OK: 0 V

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and 

check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code 
68 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, passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-29 and intermediate connector D-44

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Check the harness wires for short circuit to 

power supply between SRS-ECU connector 
C-114 (terminal No.27 and 28) and 
passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner 
connector D-29 (terminal No.2 and 1), and 
repair if necessary. Then go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair or replace it. than go to Step 4.
