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 front seat outer belt assembly lh (driver side front
pretensioner squib)

- 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 front seat outer belt
lh.
- Connect the white wire side of sst to connector c.
Caution:
Never connect a tester to the front seat outer belt lh
(driver side front pretensioner squib) 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 b1900, b1901, b1902, b1903 or 73 is not
output.
Hint:
Dtcs other than dtc b1900, b1901, b1902, b1903 or
73 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 connector c.
- Check that the floor wire connector (on the driver side
front seat outer belt) is not damaged.
Ok:
the lock button is not disengaged, or the claw of
the lock is not deformed or damaged.


- Check floor wire (driver side front pretensioner squib 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
- Release the activation prevention mechanism built into
connector b (see page rs-37).
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side
connector.
Standard resistance
