STEP	CHECK	YES	NO
1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS. Check for poor contact of the connectors between the airbag control module and the seat belt pretensioner RH.	Is there poor contact-	Replace the airbag rear harness along with body harness.	Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B1902 SHORT IN FRONT P/T RH (TO GROUND)
2.CHECK SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER. 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait for 60 seconds or more. 2) Disconnect the connector (AB26) from seat belt pretensioner RH. 3) Connect the connector (1N) in the test harness N to the connector (AB26). 4) Connect the airbag resistor to the connector (2N) of test harness N. 5) Connect the battery ground terminal and turn the ignition switch to ON.	Does the airbag warning light illuminate for six seconds and go off-	Replace the seat belt pretensioner RH.

3.CHECK AIRBAG REAR HARNESS (PRETENSIONER HARNESS RH) (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 airbag resistor from the connector (2N) of test harness N. 3) Disconnect the connector (AB22) from seat cushion airbag module RH. 4) Disconnect the connector (AB24) from side airbag module RH. 5) Disconnect the connector (AB33) from curtain airbag module RH. 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) Measure the resistance between connector (3AG) in the test harness AG and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (3AG) No. 10 — Chassis ground: (3AG) No. 12 — Chassis ground:	Is the resistance 1 M- or more-	Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code > DTC B1902 SHORT IN FRONT P/T RH (TO GROUND)	Replace the airbag rear harness along with body harness.
4.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 B1902 displayed-	Replace the airbag control module.
