If  DTC  U0171  is  set  in  the  SRS-ECU,  always
diagnose the CAN main bus line.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
If an impact of set value or more is detected, the front
impact sensor sends the coded acceleration data to
SRS-ECU. Based on the acceleration data, SRS-ECU
determines  the  necessity  of  driver's  and  front
passenger's air bag deployment, and then turns ON
the power supply circuit to the inflator.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
These  DTCs  are  set  if  communication  between  the
front  impact  sensor  (RH)  and  the  SRS-ECU  is  not
possible or faulty.

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

(1)

Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the
scan tool P.52B-31."

(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 54D,

Diagnosis P.54D-17).

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:

 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 Cope with Intermittent Malfunction P.00-15).

STEP 3. Check for any diagnostic trouble code. (Using scan
tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code.)
Check the front impact sensor (RH).

(1)

Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2)

Replace the front impact sensor (RH) with the front impact
sensor (LH).

(3)

Connect the negative battery terminal.

(4)

Erase diagnostic trouble code from memory, and check the
diagnostic trouble code.

Q:Is DTC U0171 set?

YES:

 Replace the front impact sensor (RH) with a new one.

(Refer to P.52B-324). Go to Step 5.

NO:

 Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the harness wires for open circuit or short
circuit between SRS-ECU connector C-28 (terminal No.23
and 24) and front impact sensor (RH) connector A-53
(terminal No.2 and 1).

NOTE: 

After inspecting intermediate connector C-33 inspect

the wiring harness. If the intermediate connector C-33 is
damaged, repair or replace it.

Q:Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-28

(terminal  No.23  and  24)  and  front  impact  sensor  (RH)

connector A-53 (terminal No.2 and 1 in good condition?

YES:

 Erase the diagnostic trouble code memory, and check

the diagnostic trouble code. If DTC U0171 sets, replace
the SRS-ECU (Refer to P.52B-326). Then go to Step 5.

NO:

 Replace the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector

C-28 and front impact sensor (RH) connector A-53. Then go
to Step 5.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
