Diagnosis start condition:

Ignition voltage is 10 V to 16 V.

DTC detecting condition:

• Curtain airbag harness (LH) circuit is shorted to ground.

• Curtain airbag module (LH) is faulty.

• Airbag control module is faulty.

Before performing diagnosis, refer to “CAUTION” in “General Description”. General Description > CAUTION">

1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS.

3.CHECK AIRBAG REAR HARNESS (CURTAIN AIRBAG MODULE HARNESS LH).

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 60 seconds or more.

2) Disconnect the connector (AB21) from seat belt pretensioner (LH).

3) Disconnect connector (AB19) from side airbag module (LH).

4) Disconnect the airbag resistor from test harness N.

5) Disconnect the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18) from airbag control module.

6) Connect the connector (1AG) in the test harness AG to the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18).

7) Measure the resistance between connector (6AG) in the test harness AG and chassis ground.
