Front Occupant Classification Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction

One of the following conditions is met:
  • Occupant detection ECU detects a line short circuit signal, open circuit signal, short circuit to ground signal or short circuit to +B signal in the front occupant classification sensor LH circuit for 2 seconds.
  • Front occupant classification sensor LH malfunction.
  • Occupant detection ECU malfunction.
  • Front seat adjuster assembly RH (front occupant classification sensor LH)
  • Front seat wire RH
  • Occupant detection ECU

HINT:

  • When DTC B1650/32 is stored as a result of troubleshooting the airbag system, perform troubleshooting for DTC B1780 of the occupant classification system.
  • Use the Techstream to check for DTCs of the occupant detection ECU, otherwise the DTCs cannot be read.

HINT:

  • If troubleshooting (wire harness inspection) is difficult to perform, remove the front seat RH installation bolts to see the undersurface of the seat cushion.
  • In the above case, hold the seat so that it does not fall down. Holding the seat for a long period of time may cause problems, such as seat rail deformation. Hold the seat up only for as long as necessary.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC

(a) Turn the power switch on (IG), and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(b) Clear the DTCs.
