DTC 46-1x
DTC 46-1x ("x" can be 0 thru 9 or A thru F): No Signal From the Right Side Impact Sensor (second)Special Tools Required
- SRS inflator simulator 07SAZ-TB4011A
- SRS simulator lead H 07YAZ-S3AA100
1. Erase the DTC memory.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and check that the SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and then goes off.
Does the SRS indicator stay on, and is DTC 46-1x indicated?
YES - Go to step 3.
NO - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures. Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures If another DTC is indicated, Go to the DTC Troubleshooting Index. Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, and wait for 3 minutes.
4. Check the connection between the side curtain airbag harness 2P connector and the right side impact sensor (second).
Is the connection OK?
YES - Go to step 5.
NO - Repair the poor connections and retest. If the DTC 46-1x is still present, Go to step 5.
5. Disconnect the side curtain airbag harness 2P connector from the right side curtain airbag.
6. Disconnect the side curtain airbag harness 2P connector (A) from the right side impact sensor (second).
7. Disconnect SRS unit connector C (16P) from the SRS unit.
8. Check resistance between the No. 15 and No. 16 terminals of SRS unit connector C (16P). There should be an open circuit or at least 1 Mohm.
Is the resistance as specified?
YES - Go to step 9.
NO - Short in the side curtain airbag harness; replace the side curtain airbag harness.
9. Check resistance between the No. 15 terminal of SRS unit connector C (16P) and body ground, and between the No. 16 terminal and body ground. There should be an open circuit or at least 1 Mohm.
Is the resistance as specified?
YES - Go to step 10.

Is the voltage as specified?
YES - Go to step 13.
NO - Short to power in the side curtain airbag harness; replace the side curtain airbag harness.
13. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
14. Connect the SRS inflator simulator (jumper connector) and simulator lead H to the side curtain airbag harness 2P connector (A).
15. Check resistance between the No. 15 and No. 16 terminals of SRS unit connector C (16P). There should be 1.0 ohm or less.
Is the resistance as specified?
YES - Faulty right side impact sensor (second) or SRS unit; replace the right side impact sensor (second), If the problem is still present, replace the SRS unit.
NO - Open in the side curtain airbag harness; replace the side curtain airbag harness.
