SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-255

STEP 4. Check the harness for open circuit between 
SRS-ECU connector C-27 (terminal No.45 and 46) and the 
driver's seat belt pre-tensioner D-121 (terminal No.1 and 2).
(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2) While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the 

harness side connector, turn the lock lever to the direction 
of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the 
C-27 SRS-ECU connector.

DANGER

To prevent the seat belt pre-tensioner from deploying 
unintentionally, disconnect the driver’s seat belt 
pre-tensioner connector D-121 to short the squib cir-
cuit.

(3) Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-27 and driver's seat belt 

pre-tensioner connector D-121, and measure at the wiring 
harness side. For connector D-121, 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

Insert an insulator such as a cable tie to a depth of 4mm 
(0.16 inch) or more, otherwise the short spring will not be 
released.

(4) Insert a cable tie [3 mm (0.12 inch) wide, 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) 

thick] between terminals 45, 46 and the short spring to 
release the short spring.

(5) Connect D-121 harness side connector to special tool 

MB991884.

(6) Check for continuity between the following terminals. It 

should be less than 2 ohms.

• SRS-ECU connector C-27 (terminal No.45) and the spe-

cial tool (terminal No.2)

• SRS-ECU connector C-27 (terminal No.46) and the spe-

cial tool (terminal No.1)

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and 

recheck if any DTC set. If DTC B1C3A set, replace 
the SRS-ECU (Refer to 

P.52B-436

). Then go to Step 

5.

NO :  Repair harness wires between SRS-ECU connector 

C-27 and driver’s seat belt pre-tensioner connector 
D-121. 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 B1C3A set?

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

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-257

DTC B1C3B: Driver's Seat Belt Pre-tensioner (Squib) System (Short Circuit between Squib Circuit 
Terminals)

CAUTION

If DTC B1C3B is set in the SRS-ECU, always diag-
nose the CAN main bus line.

.

CIRCUIT 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 sends an 
ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing 
G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy. 

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance 
between the input terminals of the driver's side seat 
belt pre-tensioner (squib).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HITS

• Improper engaged connector or defective short 

spring*

• Short circuit between the driver's seat belt 

pre-tensioner (squib) circuit terminals

• Damaged connector(s)

• Malfunction of the SRS-ECU

: CONNECTOR COUPLED: ON
  CONNECTOR UNCOUPLED: OFF

SRS AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

52B-258

NOTE: *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a 
"short" spring (which prevents the seat belt pre-ten-
sioner from deploying unintentionally due to static 
electricity by shorting the positive wire to the ground 
wire in the squib circuit when the connectors are dis-
connected) (Refer to 

P.52B-3

). Therefore, if connec-

tor C-27 or D-121 is damaged or improperly 
engaged, the short spring may not be released when 
the connector is connected.

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)

• MB991865: Dummy resistor

• MB991884: Resister harness

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.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the 

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-17

).
