B1352 Passenger Airbag Resistance too High (1st Stage)

COMPONENT LOCATION

img

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Passenger Air bag module (hereinafter referred to PAB) located at passenger side crush pad protects passenger by reducing impact of collision.
PAB is consist of air bag, pat cover and inflator.
Air bag reduces impact of collision by fillied up gas.
Inflator keeps gas and uses it to deploy air bag on collision.
   
 
Never measure resistance of PAB directly, Current of measuring device may cause unexpected air bag deploy.
DTC DESCRIPTION
The SRSCM sets DTC B1352 if the measured resistance value of PAB circuit is more than the threshold value.
*In this case, SRSCM checks if there’s any fault in circuit by sending current for a while

MONITOR SCANTOOL DATA
1.
Ignition “OFF”, connect scantool.
2.
Ignition “ON”& Engine “OFF”, select “Current Data” mode.
3.
Monitor the “Passenger airbag resistance” parameter on the Scantool.
 1.6Ω< Resistance of Passenger airbag < 6.0Ω

 

Reference : In a case of an open in the Passenger airbag circuit : FAIL
In a case of a short to battery in the Passenger airbag circuit: FAIL
In a case of a short to ground in the driver Passenger circuit : FAIL

▶ Displaying nothing(no DTC) or DTC with label “H”(historical) shows that Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the part’s and/or SRSCM connector or was repaired and SRSCM memory was not cleared.
Thoroughly check shorting bar/shorting bar release pin and connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
▶ Repair or replace as necessary .

img

▶ Go to “W/Harness Inspection” procedure.

 

TERMINAL AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION
1.
Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals.
Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2.
Thoroughly check shorting bar/shorting bar release pin and connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
3.
Has a problem been found?
 

img

▶ Repair as necessary and then go to “Verification of Vehicle Repair” procedure.

img

▶ Go to “Squib Circuit Inspection” procedure.
SQUIB CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1.
Ignition “OFF”.
2.
Disconnect (-) terminal cable from battery and wait for 1 minutes or more.
3.
Remove the PAB module and connect the dummy and dummy adapter to PAB harness connector.
   
 
If dummy and dummy adaptor are not able to be prepared, use a known-good PAB or 2Ω resistor.
   
 
Lay Removed PAB facing upward for unexpected air bag deploy .
4.
Connect (-) terminal cable to battery and Ignition “ON” & Engine “OFF” and wait for 30 seconds or more.
5.
Connect scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC) and clear DTC with scantool and diagnose again.

6.
Is DTC present problem ?
 

img

▶ Go to “Main harness circuit inspection” procedure.

img

▶ Substitute a known-good PAB assembly, and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace PAB .
MAIN HARNESS CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1.
Ignition “OFF”.
2.
Disconnect the battery (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait at least one minutes.
3.
Disconnect PAB connector and SRSCM main harness connector.
   
 
Lay Removed PAB facing upward for unexpected air bag deploy .
4.
Measure resistance between terminal “Low.1” and “High.1” of the PAB harness connector.
approx. 1 Ω below

img

5.
Is the measured resistance within specifications?
 

img

▶ Substitute a known-good SRSCM, and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace SRSCM.

img

▶ Substitute the SRSCM main harness and check for proper operation.
If the problem is corrected, replace SRSCM main harness
