DTC    B0103/12    Short to B+ in Driver Side Squib Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The driver side squib circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly, the spiral cable and the steering pad.
The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.
DTC B0103/12 is recorded when a short to B+ is detected in the driver side squib circuit.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK STEERING PAD (DRIVER SIDE SQUIB)


    C110394E01

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

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

  1. Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad.

  1. Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) to the spiral cable.

    CAUTION:
    Never connect a tester to the steering pad (Driver side squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

    NOTICE:
    Do not forcibly insert the SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
    Insert the SST straight into the terminals of the connector.

09843-18060  

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

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

  1. Clear the DTCs stored in memory (Click here).

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

  1. Check the DTCs (Click here).

    OK:
    DTC B0103/12 is not output.

    HINT:
    Codes other than DTC B0103/12 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

REPLACE STEERING PAD 

2.CHECK CONNECTORS

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

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

  1. Disconnect the SST (resistance 2.1 Ω) from the spiral cable.

  1. Check that the spiral cable connectors (on the steering pad side) are not damaged.

    OK:
    The lock button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.
