Code No.B1C49 Seat belt with pre-tensioner (LH) (squib) system (open circuit of squib circuit)











caution If the diagnosis code B1C49 is set to SRS-ECU, be sure to diagnose the CAN bus line.

OPERATION


Only when the frontal impact exceeding the threshold is simultaneously detected (turned ON) by the front impact sensor as well as by the analogue G-sensor and safing G-sensor in SRS-ECU, the electric current is supplied from SRS-ECU to the pre-tensioner (squib).

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT


The code is set when the open circuit occurs to the SRS-ECU seat belt with pre-tensioner (LH) (squib) circuit.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Damaged wiring harness and connector
  • Open circuit to seat belt with pre-tensioner (LH) (squib) circuit
  • Malfunction of SRS-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE


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


Use 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 54C - Troubleshooting ).

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


(1)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(2)After erasing the diagnosis code memory, check the diagnosis code again.
(3)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is the diagnosis code No. B1C49 set?

Go to Step 3.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).

STEP 3. Diagnosis check by dummy resistor connection.


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.

(2)Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of harness side connector. After releasing the lock, disconnect the D-22 harness side connector.

(3)Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).
(4)Connect the resistor harness to the D-22 harness side connector.
(5)Connect the negative battery terminal.
(6)After erasing the diagnosis code memory, check the diagnosis code again.
(7)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Q. Is the diagnosis code No. B1C49 set?

Go to Step 4.

Replace the seat belt with pre-tensioner (Refer to ).

STEP 4. Resistance measurement at the C-121 SRS-ECU connector and the D-22 pre-tensioner connector.


(1)Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.

(2)While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the harness side connector, turn the lock lever to the direction of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the C-121 SRS-ECU connector.

(3)
danger To release the SRS-ECU connector short spring in the following operations, disconnect this pre-tensioner connector, and keep the squib circuit shorted.
Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of harness side connector. After releasing the lock, disconnect the D-22 harness side connector.


(4)
caution The short spring may not be released due to the insufficient insertion. Therefore, insert the insulator for 4 mm or more.
Insert an insulator (width: 3 mm, thickness: 0.5 mm) such as cable tie between the terminal 43/44 <RHD> and the terminal 45/46 <LHD>, and the short spring, and release the short spring.

(5)Connect special tool resistor harness (MB991884) to the removed D-22 harness side connector.


(6)Take the measurements below at the resistor harness and C-121 harness side connector.

  • Continuity between C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 43 and resistor harness connector terminal No. 1 <RHD>
  • Continuity between C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 44 to resistor harness connector terminal No. 2 <RHD>
  • Continuity between C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 45 and resistor harness connector terminal No. 2 <LHD>
  • Continuity between C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 46 to resistor harness connector terminal No. 1 <LHD>
OK: Continuity (less than 2 Ω)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.

Repair the wiring harness between the C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 43/44 and the D-22 pre-tensioner connector terminal No. 2/1 <RHD>, and between the C-121 SRS-ECU connector terminal No. 45/46 and the D-22 pre-tensioner connector terminal No. 1/2 <LHD>.

STEP 5. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Q. Is the diagnosis code No. B1C49 set?

Replace SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
