AIRBAG SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS) > Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code

DTC 85

DIAGNOSIS:

• Lap seat belt pretensioner (RH) circuit is shorted to power supply.

• Lap seat belt pretensioner is faulty.

• Lap seat belt pretensioner harness is faulty.

• Airbag control module is faulty.

CAUTION:

• Before diagnosing the airbag system, be sure to turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the ground terminal from battery, and wait for 20 seconds or more before starting to work.

• When replacing the airbag module, seat belt pretensioner, roll connector, control module and sensor, reconnect each part and check that the airbag warning light operates properly.

• When inspecting the side airbag harness, disconnect the side airbag module connector, seat belt pretensioner connector and lap seat belt pretensioner for safety reasons.

WIRING DIAGRAM:

STEPCHECKYESNO

1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS.

Check for poor contact of the connectors between the airbag control module and the lap seat belt pretensioner RH.

Is there poor contact?

Replace the airbag rear harness along with body harness.

2.CHECK LAP SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 20 seconds or more.

2) Disconnect the connector (AB25) from the lap seat belt pretensioner (RH).

3) Connect the connector (1Q) in the test harness Q to connector (AB30).

4) Connect the airbag resistor to the connector (2Q) in the test harness Q.

5) Connect the battery ground terminal and turn the ignition switch to ON.

Does the airbag warning light illuminate for six seconds and go off?

Replace the lap seat belt pretensioner (RH).

3.CHECK SIDE AIRBAG HARNESS (RH).

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 20 seconds or more.

2) Disconnect the airbag resistor from test harness.

3) Disconnect connector (AB11) from side airbag module (RH).

4) Disconnect the connector (AB20) from the seat belt pretensioner.

5) Disconnect connectors (AB7) and (AB8) from airbag control module.

6) Connect connector (1R) in the test harness R to the connector (AB7).

7) Connect the battery ground terminal and turn the ignition switch to ON.

8) Measure the voltage between connector (3R) in the test harness R and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(3R) No. 2 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

(3R) No. 4 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

Is the voltage less than 1 V?

Replace the side airbag harness along with the body harness.

4.CHECK AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE.

1) Connect all connectors.

2) Erase the memory.

3) Perform the Inspection Mode.

4) Read the DTC.

Is the same DTC displayed?

Replace the airbag control module.

5.CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTC ON DISPLAY.

Is there any other DTC displayed?

Check DTC using “List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)”.

Finish the diagnosis.
