B1610





SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1610/13, B1615/14: Front Airbag Sensor RH Malfunction
B1615/14 - Front Airbag Sensor LH Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The front airbag sensor LH and RH consists of the diagnostic circuit and the frontal deceleration sensor, etc.

If the center airbag sensor receives signals from the frontal deceleration sensor, it determines whether the SRS should be activated.

DTC B1610/13 or B1615/14 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the front airbag sensor LH and RH circuit.
