Code No.B1406: G-sensor of front impact sensor (RH) failure
Code No.B1416: G-sensor of front impact sensor (LH) failure



caution If diagnosis code B1406 or B1416 is set in the SRS-ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus line.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS


These diagnosis codes are set if the following conditions are detected from the analogue G-sensor inside the front impact sensor output:




PROBABLE CAUSES


Malfunction of front impact sensor (RH) (for diagnosis code B1406) and front impact sensor (LH) (for diagnosis code B1416)

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 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 front impact sensor.


Replace front impact sensor (RH) (for diagnosis code B1406) and front impact sensor (LH) (for diagnosis code B1416) (Refer to ).
Check the diagnosis code.

Q. Is either diagnosis code B1406 or B1416 set?

Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
The procedure is complete.
