Diagnosis code 64: Passenger’s (Front) Air Bag Module (Squib) System Fault for Power Supply Circuit (Short-Circuited to Power Supply)
OPERATION The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by detecting signals from the front impact sensors and the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the impact is over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing G-sensor is on, the SRS air bag will inflate. The ignition signal is input to the air bag module via the clock spring to inflate the air bag.
DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS This diagnosis code is set if there is abnormal resistance between the input terminals of the passenger's air bag module (squib). However, if no diagnosis code resets, the SRS warning lamp will be switched off (diagnosis code will be retained).
PROBABLE CAUSES Damaged harness wires and connectors Short to the power supply in the passenger's air bag module (squib) harness Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
| DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
| STEP1. Check the passenger's air bag module (Check whether the diagnosis code is reset). Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Unclip passenger’s air bag module connector C-09.
| Connect special tool dummy resistor (MB991865) to special tool resistor harness (MB991866). CAUTION Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front side directly as the connector contact pressure may be weakened. Disconnect the passenger's air bag module connector C-09, and insert special tool (MB991866) into the harness side connector by backprobing. Connect the negative battery terminal. Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the diagnosis code. Q: Is diagnosis code 64 set? YES: Go to Step 2. NO: Replace the passenger's air bag module (Refer to ). Then go to Step 4.
| STEP 2. Check the passenger’s air bag module circuit at the SRS-ECU connector C-115. Disconnect SRS-ECU connector C-115. CAUTION To prevents the air bag from deploying unintentionally, disconnect the passenger’s air bag module connector C-09 to short the squib circuit. Disconnect the passenger's air bag module connector C-09. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
| CAUTION Do not insert a test probe into the terminal from its front side directly as the connector contact pressure may be weakened. Measure the voltage between C-115 harness side connector terminals 9, 10 and body earth. OK: 0 V Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Erase the diagnosis code memory, and check the diagnosis code. If diagnosis code 64 sets, replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ). Then go to Step 4 . NO: Go to Step 3.
| STEP 3. Check the harness wires for short circuit to power supply between SRS-ECU connector C-115 (terminal No.9 and 10) and passenger's air bag module connector C-09 (terminal No.1 and 2). Q: Are the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-115 (terminal No.9 and 10) and passenger's air bag module connector C-09 (terminal No.1 and 2) in good condition? YES: Go to Step 4. NO: Repair the harness wires between SRS-ECU connector C-115 and passenger's air bag module connector C-09. Then go to Step 4.
| STEP 4. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset. Q: Is diagnosis code 64 set? YES: Return to Step 1. NO: The procedure is complete (If no malfunctions are found in all steps, an intermittent malfunction is suspected). Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points .
