Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    2. Clear the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

      HINT:

      First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU and then in the center airbag sensor.

    3. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for at least 10 seconds.
    4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    5. Check the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

    OK: DTC B1794 is not output. 

    HINT:

    DTCs other than B1794 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

    OK: USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK 

    NG: GO to Next Step 

  2. CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTOR 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the occupant classification ECU.

    OK: The connectors are properly connected. 

    NG: CONNECT CONNECTOR 

    OK: GO to Next Step 

  3. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SOURCE VOLTAGE) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
    3. Disconnect the L1 connector from the occupant classification ECU.
    4. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
    5. Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.

    6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    7. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

      Standard resistance 

      TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITION

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      L1-3 (GND) - Body ground Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU) 

    OK: GO to Next Step 

  4. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
    3. Connect the connectors to the occupant classification ECU.
    4. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
    5. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    6. Clear the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

      HINT:

      First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU and then in the center airbag sensor.

    7. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for at least 10 seconds.
    8. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    9. Using the intelligent tester, check for DTCs of the occupant classification ECU (see TERMINALS OF ECU ).

    OK: DTC B1794 is not output. 

    HINT:

    DTCs other than B1794 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

    OK: USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK 

    NG: GO to Next Step 

  5. REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
    3. Replace the occupant classification ECU (see OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU ).
  6. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION 
    1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
    2. Connect the intelligent tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3.
    3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    4. Using the intelligent tester, perform the zero point calibration (see INITIALIZATION ).

    OK: COMPLETED is displayed. 

  7. PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK 
    1. Using the intelligent tester, perform the sensitivity check (see INITIALIZATION ).

      Standard value: 

      27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
