DTC

B1603/83

Front Satellite Sensor Bus RH Initialization Incomplete

DTC

B1612/83

Lost Communication with Front Airbag Sensor RH

DTC

B1613/83

Front Airbag Sensor RH Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The front airbag sensor RH circuit consists of the center airbag sensor and front airbag sensor RH.

The front airbag sensor RH detects impacts to the vehicle and sends signals to the center airbag sensor to determine if the airbag should be deployed.

DTC B1603/83, B1612/83 or B1613/83 is stored when a malfunction is detected in the front airbag sensor RH circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the center airbag sensor and the front airbag sensor RH.

OK:

The connectors are properly connected.

OK

2.

CHECK CONNECTORS

(a) Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor and front airbag sensor RH.

(b) Check that the connectors (on the center airbag sensor side and front airbag sensor RH side) are not damaged.

OK:

The connectors are not deformed or damaged.

OK

3.

CHECK FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR RH CIRCUIT



(a) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
