Code No.B1417: Front impact sensor (LH) voltage error
caution |
If diagnosis code B1417 is set in the SRS-ECU, always
diagnose the CAN main bus line.
|
OPERATION
The front impact sensor transmits acceleration data to
the SRS-ECU. The SRS-ECU then determines whether to operate the front air
bags, and then outputs an ignition signal when necessary. The front impact
sensor also diagnoses itself, and sends a diagnosis code to the SRS-ECU if a
malfunction occurs.
DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code will set when
the power supply voltage to the front impact sensor (LH) remains less than a
predetermined value for one second.
PROBABLE CAUSES
- Damaged wiring harness or connectors
- Malfunction of the front impact sensor (LH)
- Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
|
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 54D, 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 harness wires for open circuit or short circuit
between SRS-ECU connector D-24 (terminal No.38 and 39) and front impact
sensor (LH) connector A-24 (terminal No.1 and 2).
|
|
note |
After inspecting intermediate connector D-241
inspect the wiring harness. If the intermediate connector D-241 is
damaged, repair or replace it.
|
|
|
Q.
Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector D-24 (terminal No.38 and
39) and front impact sensor (LH) (front) connector A-24 (terminal No.1 and
2) in good condition?
|
|
Go to Step 4.
|
|
|
|
Repair
the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector D-24 (terminal No.38 and 39)
and front impact sensor (LH) connector A-24 (terminal No.1 and 2).
|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Check the front impact sensor (LH).
|
|
(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
|
|
(2)Replace the front impact sensor (LH) with the front impact
sensor (RH).
|
|
(3)Connect the negative battery terminal.
|
|
(4)Erase the diagnosis code from memory, and check the
diagnosis code.
|
|
Q.
Is diagnosis code B1417 set?
|
|
Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
|
|
|
|
Replace the front impact sensor (LH)
with a new one (Refer to ).
