Toyota Tundra Service Manual: Short in Curtain Shield Airbag (LH) Squib Circuit (B1835-B1838)

DESCRIPTION

The curtain shield squib LH circuit consists of the airbag sensor assembly and curtain shield airbag assembly LH.

The circuit instructs the SRS to deploy when deployment conditions are met.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the curtain shield squib LH circuit.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

• After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

HINT:

To perform the simulation method, enter check mode (signal check) with the Techstream (Click here ), and then wiggle each connector of the airbag system or drive the vehicle on various types of road (Click here ).

PROCEDURE

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

*1 Curtain Shield Airbag Assembly LH *2 Airbag Sensor Assembly *3 Floor Wire

(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.

(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the curtain shield airbag assembly LH and airbag sensor assembly.

OK:

The connectors are properly connected.

HINT:

If the connectors are not properly connected, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection.

(d) Disconnect the connectors from the curtain shield airbag assembly LH and airbag sensor assembly.

(e) Check that the terminals of the connectors are not deformed or damaged.

OK:

The terminals are not deformed or damaged.

(f) Check that the floor wire connector (on the curtain shield airbag assembly LH side) is not loose, deformed or damaged.

OK:

The connector locking button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.

(g) Check that the short springs of the activation prevention mechanism of the floor wire connector are not deformed or damaged.

OK:

The short springs are not deformed or damaged.

(b) Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ω) to connector C.

CAUTION:

Never connect the tester to the curtain shield airbag assembly LH for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.

NOTICE:

• Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.
• Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.

SST: 09843-18061

(c) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.

(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(e) Clear the DTCs.
