STEP	CHECK	YES	NO
1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS. Check for poor contact of the connectors between the airbag control module and the front sub sensor RH.	Is there poor contact-	Replace the airbag main harness along with body harness.	Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B16A3 SHORT IN FRONT SUB SENSOR RH (TO +B)
2.CHECK AIRBAG MAIN HARNESS (FRONT SENSOR BUS RH) (SHORTED TO POWER SUPPLY). 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 60 seconds or more. 2) Remove the instrument panel lower cover and column cover, and disconnect the connectors (AB7) and (AB2). 3) Remove the console front panel and disconnect the connector (AB9). 4) Disconnect the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18) from airbag control module. 5) Disconnect the connector (AB16) from the front sub sensor RH, and then connect the connector (1H) in the test harness H to connector (AB16). 6) Connect the battery ground terminal and turn the ignition switch to ON. 7) Measure the voltage between connector (3H) in the test harness H and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (3H) No. 5 (+) — Chassis ground (–): (3H) No. 6 (+) — Chassis ground (–):	Is the voltage less than 1 V-	Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B16A3 SHORT IN FRONT SUB SENSOR RH (TO +B)	Replace the airbag main harness along with body harness.
3.CHECK AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE. 1) Connect all connectors. 2) Clear the memory. Clear Memory Mode 3) Perform the Inspection Mode. Inspection Mode 4) Read the DTC. (Current malfunction) Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)	Is DTC B16A3 displayed-	Replace the airbag control module.
