DTC Troubleshooting

1.
Was "Air Bag Diagnostic System Check" performed?
YES -
Go to Step 2.
NO -
Go to Air Bag Diagnostic System Check Air Bag Diagnostic System Check:Except Advanced Air Bag.

2. Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Disconnect forward-sensor connector "E13" or "E24".

NO -
For DTC B1073: "ORN" circuit or "PNK/BLK" circuit shorted to ground.
For DTC B1077: "PNK" circuit or "PNK/BLU" circuit shorted to ground.

3. Check forward-sensor referring to Forward-Sensor Inspection Forward-Sensor Inspection:Except Advanced Air Bag.

Is it in good condition?
YES -
Substitute a known-good SDM and recheck.
NO -
Replace forward-sensor referring to Forward-Sensor Removal and Installation Forward-Sensor Removal and Installation:Except Advanced Air Bag. If DTC still exists, substitute a known-good SDM and recheck.

NOTE:

Upon completion of inspection and repair work, perform the following items.

- Reconnect all air bag system components and ensure all components are properly mounted.
- Clear DTCs referring to DTC Clearance DTC Clearance:Except Advanced Air Bag
, if any.

- Repeat Air Bag Diagnostic System Check Air Bag Diagnostic System Check:Except Advanced Air Bag
to confirm that the trouble has been corrected.
