SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1810/53-B1813/53: Short in Driver Side Squib 2nd Step Circuit
B1813/53 - Short to B+ in Driver Side Squib 2nd Step Circuit
DESCRIPTION
* The driver side squib 2nd step circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly, spiral cable and steering pad.
* The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.
* These DTCs are recorded when a malfunction is detected in the driver side squib 2nd step circuit.
WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT
* Perform the simulation method by selecting the Check Mode (Signal Check) using the Techstream Check Mode Procedure.
* After selecting the Check Mode (Signal Check), perform the simulation method by wiggling each connector of the airbag system or driving the vehicle on a city or rough road How To Proceed With Troubleshooting.
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK CONNECTORS
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
NOTICE:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.
(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the steering pad, spiral cable and center airbag sensor assembly.
OK:
The connectors are properly connected.
HINT
If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.
(d) Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad, spiral cable and center airbag sensor assembly.
(e) Check that the terminals of the connectors are not damaged.
OK:
The terminals are not deformed or damaged.
(f) Check that the spiral cable connector (on the steering pad side) is not damaged.
OK:
The lock button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.
(g) Check that the short springs for the instrument panel wire and spiral cable with the activation prevention mechanism are not deformed or damaged.
OK:
The short springs are not deformed or damaged.

2. CHECK STEERING PAD (DRIVER SIDE SQUIB 2ND STEP)
(a) Connect the instrument panel wire to the center airbag sensor assembly and spiral cable.
(b) Connect SST (resistance 2.1 Ohms) to connector E (black connector).
CAUTION:
Never connect the tester to the steering pad (driver side squib 2nd step) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.
NOTICE:
* Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
* Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
SST : 09843-18061
(c) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
(d) Turn the engine switch on (IG), and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(e) Clear the DTCs stored in the memory DTC Check / Clear.
(f) Turn the engine switch off.
(g) Turn the engine switch on (IG), and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(h) Check for DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
OK:
DTC B1810, B1811, B1812, B1813 or 53 is not output.
