Occupant Classification System Malfunction - Airbag System








SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B1650/32: Occupant Classification System Malfunction

DTC B1650/32 - Occupant Classification System Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The occupant classification system circuit consists of the center airbag sensor assembly and the occupant classification system.
When the center airbag sensor assembly receives signals from the occupant classification ECU, it determines whether or not the front passenger airbag, front seat side airbag assembly RH and seat belt pretensioner RH should be operated.
DTC B1650/32 is set when a malfunction is detected in the occupant classification system circuit.






WIRING DIAGRAM





INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTE: In order to prevent unexpected airbag deployment, disconnect the following connectors before inspecting parts such as wire harnesses, if the application of tester probes to the center airbag sensor assembly connector is necessary.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
2. Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
3. Disconnect the connector from the center airbag sensor assembly.
4. Disconnect the connectors from the steering pad.
5. Disconnect the connectors from the front passenger airbag assembly.
6. Disconnect the connector from the front seat outer belt assembly LH.
7. Disconnect the connector from the front seat outer belt assembly RH.
HINT: Skip the following steps if side and curtain shield airbags are not fitted.

8. Disconnect the connector from the front seat side airbag assembly LH.
9. Disconnect the connector from the front seat side airbag assembly RH.
10. Disconnect the connector from the curtain shield airbag assembly LH.
11. Disconnect the connector from the curtain shield airbag assembly RH.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC (CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY)




(a) Turn the ignition switch to the on position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(b) Clear the DTCs stored in the memory DTC Check / Clear.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the on position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(e) Check for DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
OK:
DTC B1650/32 is not output.
HINT: DTCs other than B1650/32 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

OK -- USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK
NG -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK DTC (OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU)
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the on position, and wait for at least 10 seconds.
(b) Using the Techstream, check for DTCs of the occupant classification ECU Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
OK:
DTC is not output.
NG -- GO TO DTC CHART
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the center airbag sensor assembly and the occupant classification ECU.
OK:
The connectors are properly connected.
NG -- CONNECT CONNECTORS
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK FLOOR WIRE (FOR OPEN)




(a) Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor assembly and the occupant classification ECU.
(b) Using a service wire, connect J24-8 (FSR+) and J24-4 (FSR-) of connector C.
NOTE: Do not forcibly insert the service wire into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
(c) Measure the resistance.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE FLOOR WIRE
OK -- Continue to next step.
5. CHECK FLOOR WIRE (FOR SHORT)




(a) Disconnect the service wire from connector C.
(b) Measure the resistance.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE FLOOR WIRE
OK -- Continue to next step.
6. CHECK FLOOR WIRE (TO B+)




(a) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
(c) Measure the voltage.
Standard voltage:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE FLOOR WIRE
OK -- Continue to next step.
7. CHECK FLOOR WIRE (TO GROUND)




(a) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Measure the resistance.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE FLOOR WIRE
OK -- Continue to next step.
8. CHECK CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY




(a) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Replace the center airbag sensor assembly.
- for Hatchback: Removal
- for Sedan: Removal
HINT: Perform the inspection using parts from a normal vehicle when possible.
(d) Connect the connectors to the center airbag sensor assembly.
(e) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
(f) Turn the ignition switch to the on position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(g) Clear the DTCs stored in the memory DTC Check / Clear.
(h) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(i) Turn the ignition switch to the on position, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
(j) Check for DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
OK:
DTC B1650/32 is not output.
HINT: DTCs other than B1650/32 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.

OK -- USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK
NG -- Continue to next step.
9. REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the lock position.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
(c) Replace the occupant classification ECU Removal.
NEXT -- Continue to next step.
10. PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
(a) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
(d) Using the Techstream, perform the zero point calibration Programming and Relearning.
OK:
COMPLETED is displayed on the tester.
NEXT -- Continue to next step.
11. PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
(a) Using the Techstream, perform the sensitivity check Programming and Relearning.
(1) Confirm that nothing is placed on the passenger seat.
(2) Confirm that the first sensor reading is within the standard range.
Standard range:
-3.2 to 3.2 kg (-7 to 7 lb)
(3) Place a 30 kg (66.14 lb) weight (e.g. a lead mass) onto the front passenger seat.
(4) Confirm that the sensitivity is within the standard range.
Standard range:
27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
HINT: When performing the sensitivity check, use a solid metal weight (the check result may not be accurate if a liquid weight is used).
