1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS. Check for poor contact of the connectors between the airbag control module and side airbag sensor LH, curtain airbag sensor LH, or front door impact sensor LH. | | Replace the airbag rear harness along with body harness. | Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B16B7 SHORT IN SIDE SATELLITE SENSOR BUS LH (TO GROUND) |
2.CHECK AIRBAG REAR HARNESS (SIDE SENSOR BUS LH) (SHORTED TO GROUND). 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 60 seconds or more. 2) Disconnect the connector (AB21) from seat belt pretensioner LH. 3) Disconnect the connector (AB5) from seat cushion airbag module LH. 4) Disconnect the connector (AB19) from side airbag module LH. 5) Disconnect the connector (AB31) from curtain airbag module LH. 6) Disconnect the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18) from airbag control module. 7) Connect the connector (1AD) in test harness AD AV to the connectors (AB6, AB17, AB18). 8) Connect the connector (2AD) in test harness AD AV and the connector (1AG) in test harness AG. 9) Disconnect the connector (AB23) from the side airbag sensor LH. 10) Disconnect the connector (AB32) from curtain airbag sensor LH. 11) Disconnect the connector (AB58) from front door impact sensor LH. 12) Measure the resistance between connector (5AG) in the test harness AG and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (5AG) No. 14 — Chassis ground: (5AG) No. 16 — Chassis ground: | Is the resistance 1 M- or more- | Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B16B7 SHORT IN SIDE SATELLITE SENSOR BUS LH (TO GROUND) | Replace the airbag rear harness along with body harness. |
