Code No. B1628: Front passenger’s lap pre-tensioner (squib) system (shorted to squib circuit power supply)



caution If diagnosis code No. B1628 is set in the SRS-ECU, be sure to diagnose the CAN bus line.

OPERATION


Only when the frontal collision impact that exceeds the threshold is simultaneously detected (turned ON) by the front impact sensor as well as by the analogue G-sensor in SRS-ECU, the electric current is supplied from SRS-ECU to the lap pre-tensioner (squib).

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT


The code is set when the SRS-ECU passenger’s lap pre-tensioner (squib) circuit is shorted to power supply.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Poor contact of connector
  • Passenger’s lap pre-tensioner (squib) harness shorted to power supply
  • Malfunction of SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics


Use M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting).

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.


(1)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(2)After erasing the diagnosis code memory, check the diagnosis code again.
(3)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is diagnosis code No. B1628 set?

Go to Step 3.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction).

STEP 3. Diagnosis check by dummy resistor connection


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.

(2)Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of harness side connector. After releasing the lock, disconnect the lap pre-tensioner harness side connector.

(3)Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).
(4)Connect special tool resistor harness (MB991884) to the lap pre-tensioner harness side connector.
(5)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6)After erasing the diagnosis code memory, check the diagnosis code again.
(7)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is diagnosis code No. B1628 set?

Go to Step 4.

Replace the seat belt with pre-tensioner.

STEP 4. Voltage measurement at the SRS-ECU connector


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.
(2)Disconnect the SRS-ECU connector.

(3)
danger To release the SRS-ECU connector short spring in the following operations, disconnect this lap pre-tensioner connector, and keep the squib circuit shorted.
Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of harness side connector. After releasing the lock, disconnect the lap pre-tensioner harness side connector.

(4)
caution The short spring may not be released due to the insufficient insertion. Therefore, insert the insulator for 4 mm or more.
Insert an insulator (width: 3 mm, thickness: 0.5 mm) such as cable tie between the PA2-, PA2+, and then release the short spring.
(5)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6)Ignition switch: "ON"
(7)Take the measurements below at the SRS-ECU harness side connector.

  • Voltage between PA2-, PA2+ line and body earth
OK: 1 V or less
(8)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.

Repair the wiring harness PA2-, PA2+ line between the SRS-ECU connector and the lap pre-tensioner connector.

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.


Q. Is diagnosis code No. B1628 set?

Replace SRS-ECU.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction).
