diagnosis code B1433: Side-Airbag Module (LH) (Squib) System Fault Power Supply Circuit (Short-Circuited to Power Supply)





caution If diagnosis code B1433 is set in the combination meter, always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

OPERATION




DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS


This diagnosis code is set if there is abnormal resistance between the input terminals of the side-airbag module (LH) (squib).

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


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


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

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2
Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54F, Diagnosis ).

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Ignition: LOCK (OFF) position to ON
(3)On completion, check that the diagnosis code is not reset.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Go to Step 3.
There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).

STEP 3. Check the side-airbag module (LH) (M.U.T.-III diagnosis code).


(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2)Disconnect the side-airbag module (LH) connector D-22.

(3)Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) to special tool resistor harness (MB991866).
(4)
caution Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be weakened.
Insert special tool MB991866 into the D-22 harness side connector by backprobing.
(5)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6)Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the diagnosis code.

Q. Is diagnosis code B1433 set?

Go to Step 4.

Replace the frame assembly of the front seat (LH) (Refer to GROUP 52A, Front Seat ).

STEP 4. Check the side-airbag module (RH) circuit. Voltage measurement at the SRS-ECU connector C-120.



(1)Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-120.

(2)
danger To prevent the air bag from deploying unintentionally, disconnect the side-airbag module (LH) connector D-22 to short the squib circuit.
Disconnect left hand side-airbag module (LH) connector D-22.
(3)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(4)
caution Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front side directly, as the connector contact pressure may be weakened.
Measure the voltage between C-120 harness side connector terminals 9, 10 and body earth.
OK: 0 V

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.

Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.9 and 10) and side-airbag module (LH) connector D-22 (terminal No.1 and 2).

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Q. Is diagnosis code B1433 set?

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
An intermittent malfunction is suspected (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points ).
