Code No.B1507: Seat Slide Sensor System Fault Earth Circuit (Short-Circuited to Earth)





caution If diagnosis code B1507 is set in the SRS-ECU, 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 seat slide sensor.

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 B1507 set?

Go to Step 4 .

Replace the seat slide sensor (Refer to ). Then go to Step 6 .

STEP 4. Check the seat slide sensor circuit at the SRS-ECU connector C-120.


(1)Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-120.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3)
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 1 and 2 and body earth.
OK: 0 V

Q. Is the check result normal?

Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code B1507 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ). Then go to Step 6 .

Go to Step 5 .

STEP 5. Check the harness wires for short circuit to power supply between SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.1 and 2) and seat slide sensor connector D-33 (terminal No.1 and 2).


Q. Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-120 (terminal No.1 and 2) and seat slide sensor connector D-33 (terminal No.1 and 2) in good condition?

Go to Step 6 .
Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-120 and seat slide sensor connector D-33. Then go to Step 6 .

STEP 6. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Q. Is diagnosis code B1507 set?

Return to Step 1 .
The procedure is complete.
