Code No.B1506: Seat Slide Sensor System Fault 1 (Open in the Seat Slide Sensor Circuit)





caution If diagnosis code B1506 is set in the SRS-ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus line.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS




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 line (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 seat slide sensor (M.U.T.-III diagnosis code).


(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(2)Disconnect the seat slide sensor connector D-33.

(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-33 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 B1506 set?

Go to Step 4 .

Replace the seat slide sensor (Refer to ). Then go to Step 5 .

STEP 4. Check the harness between the SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.1 and 2) and the seat slide sensor connector D-33 (terminal No.1 and 2) for open circuit.


(1)Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-120 and seat slide sensor connector D-33.

(2)
caution Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front side directly as the connector contact pressure may be weakened.
Check for continuity between the following terminals.

  • SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.1) and the seat slide sensor connector D-33 (terminal No.1)
  • SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.2) and the seat slide sensor connector D-33 (terminal No.2)
OK: Less than 2 Ω

Q. Are the check results normal?

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code B1506 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ). Then go to Step 5 .

Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-120 and seat slide sensor connector D-33. Then go to Step 5 .

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Q. Is diagnosis code B1506 set?

Return to Step 1 .
The procedure is complete.
