DTC B1412: Passenger's (Front) Air Bag Module (1ST Squib) System (Shorted To Squib Circuit Ground); DTC B1492: Passenger's (Front) Air Bag Module (2ND Squib) System (Shorted To Squib Circuit Ground): Diagnosis

  1. STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), diagnose the CAN bus line. 
    CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
    1. Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "HOW TO CONNECT THE SCAN TOOL ."
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
    3. Diagnose the CAN bus line.
    4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

    Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal? 

    YES  : Go to Step 2.

    NO  : Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to DIAGNOSIS ).

  2. STEP 2. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code. 

    Check again if the DTC is set.

    1. Erase the DTC.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
    3. Check if the DTC is set.
    4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

    Q: Is the DTC set? 

    YES  : Go to Step 3.

    NO  : There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).

  3. STEP 3. Diagnosis check by dummy resistor connection. 
    1. Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.
    2. Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of wiring harness side connector, and release the lock.

    3. Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) to special tool resistor harness (MB991884).
      CAUTION: Do not insert a probe directly into the terminal from the connector front side as the connector contact pressure may be weakened.
    4. Insert the resistor harness probe from the back of harness side connector ASQ+, ASQ- line <B1412>.

      Insert the resistor harness probe from the back of harness side connector AQ2+, AQ2- line <B1492>.

    5. Connect the negative battery terminal.
      CAUTION: Always DTC B1492 is set when checking DTC B1412. This is because the second side terminal is isolated when checking it. DTC B1492 is set but this is not a fault. In addition, always DTC B1412 is set when checking DTC B1492 because the first side terminal is isolated.
    6. Erase the DTC memory, and check the diagnostic trouble code.
    7. Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

    Q: Is the DTC set? 

    YES  : Go to Step 4.

    NO  : Replace the passenger's (front) air bag module (Refer to PASSENGER'S (FRONT) AIR BAG MODULE ).

  4. STEP 4. Resistance measurement at the SRS-ECU connector. 
    1. Check that the negative battery terminal is disconnected. If the negative battery terminal is connected, disconnect it.
    2. Disconnect the SRS-ECU connector.

      DANGER 

      To release the connector short spring in the following operations, disconnect this harness side connector, and keep the squib circuit shorted. 

    3. Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of wiring harness side connector, and release the lock.

      CAUTION: The short spring may not be released due to the insufficient insertion. Therefore, insert the insulator for 4 mm (0.16 inch) or more.
    4. Insert an insulator (3 mm (0.12 inch) wide, 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) thick) such as cable tie between the ASQ+, ASQ- line, and then release the short spring <B1412>.

      Insert an insulator (3 mm (0.12 inch) wide, 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) thick) such as cable tie between the AQ2+, AQ2- line, and then release the short spring <B1492>.

    5. Take the measurements below at the harness side connector.
      • Continuity between ASQ+, ASQ- line and body ground <B1412>

        OK: No continuity 

      • Continuity between AQ2+, AQ2- line and body ground <B1492>

        OK: No continuity 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    YES  : Go to Step 5.

    NO  : Repair ASQ+, ASQ- line <B1412> or AQ2+, AQ2- line <B1492> between the SRS-ECU connector and the passenger's (front) air bag module connector.

  5. STEP 5. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check whether the DTC is set again. 

    Check again if the DTC is set.

    1. Erase the DTC.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
    3. Check if the DTC is set.
    4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

    Q: Is DTC B1412 (1st squib) or B1492 (2nd squib) set? 

    YES  : Replace SRS-ECU (Refer to SRS CONTROL UNIT (SRS-ECU) ).

    NO  : Intermittent malfunction (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).
