Toyota RAV4 Service Manual: Short in driver side squib 2nd step circuit

Description
The driver side squib 2nd step circuit consists of the center airbag sensor,
the spiral cable and the
steering pad.
The circuit instructs the srs to deploy when the deployment conditions are met.
These dtcs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the driver side squib
2nd step circuit.

Inspection procedure
Hint:
- Perform the simulation method by selecting the "check mode" (signal
check) with the intelligent
tester (see page rs-52).
- After selecting the "check mode" (signal check), perform the simulation
method by wiggling each
connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough
road (see page rs-52).
- Check steering pad (driver side squib 2nd step)

- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery
terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad.
- Connect the white wire side of sst to the spiral cable
connector e.
Caution:
Never connect a tester to the steering pad (driver
side squib 2nd step) for measurement, as this may
lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.
Notice:
- Do not forcibly insert sst into the terminals of the
connector when connecting.
- Insert sst straight into the terminals of the
connector.
Sst 09843-18060
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal,
and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on, and wait for at least 60
seconds.
- Clear the dtcs (see page rs-49).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch on, and wait for at least 60
seconds
- Check the dtcs (see page rs-49).
Ok:
dtc b1810, b1811, b1812, b1813 or 53 is not
output.
Hint:
Dtcs other than dtc b1810, b1811, b1812, b1813 or
53 may be output at this time, but they are not related to
this check.


- Check connector
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery
terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Disconnect sst from the spiral cable.
- Check that the spiral cable connector (on the steering
pad side) is not damaged.
Ok:
lock button is not disengaged, and claw of lock is
not deformed or damaged.


- Check driver side squib 2nd step circuit

- Disconnect the connector from the center airbag sensor.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal,
and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery
terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side
connector.
Standard resistance

- Release the activation prevention mechanism built into
connector b (see page rs-37).
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side
connector.

- Check instrument panel wire

- Restore the released activation prevention mechanism
of connector b to its original position.
- Disconnect the instrument panel wire connector from the
spiral cable.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal,
and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch on.
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
