The Side Airbag circuit consists of the SRSCM and four Side Airbags (SAB). The SRSCM sets above DTC(s) if it detects that the resistance of SAB squib is too high or low.
DTC | Condition | Probable cause |
B1378 B1379 B1382 B1383 | ● Too high or low resistance between SAB high(+) and SAB low (-) ● Side Airbag (SAB) Malfunction ● SRSCM Malfunction | ● Open or short circuit on wiring harness ● Side Airbag (SAB) squib ● SRSCM |
SAB resistance : 1.804 ~ 2.568 Ω(Driver), 1.812 ~ 2.576 Ω(Passenger)
Refer to the DESCRIPTION in this TROUBLESHOOTING part.
PREPARATION
Refer to the DESCRIPTION in this TROUBLESHOOTING part.
CHECK SAB RESISTANCE
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the airbag module(squib) even if you are using the specified tester.
Connect the Dummy and the Dummy Adapter on SAB harness connector.
● Refer to "SPECIAL SERVICE TOOL" section in this SERVICE MANUAL for the SST No. of Dummy and Dummy Adapter.
Measure resistance between the terminal 20(7) and 19(8) of SRSCM harness connector(B).
SAB resistance : 1.804 ~ 2.568 Ω(Driver), 1.812 ~ 2.576 Ω(Passenger)
Is the measured resistance within specification?
▶Replace the Side Airbag(SAB) module.
▶Check open circuit.
CHECK OPEN CIRCUIT
Measure resistance between the terminal 1 of SAB harness connector and the terminal 20(7) of SRSCM harness connector(B).
Measure resistance between the terminal 2 of SAB harness connector and the terminal 19(8) of SRSCM harness connector(B).
Specification (resistance) : below 1 Ω
Is the measured resistance within specification?
▶Check short circuit.
▶Repair or replace the wiring harness between the SAB and the SRSCM.
CHECK SHORT CIRCUIT
Measure resistance between the terminal 1 and 2 of SAB harness connector.
Specification (resistance) : infinite
Is the measured resistance within specification?
▶ Go to next step.
▶ Repair or replace the wiring harness between the SAB and the SRSCM.
CLEAR THE DTC AND CHECK THE VEHICLE AGAIN
