DTC B1149/37 FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR (LH)
MALFUNCTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The airbag sensor front LH circuit consists of the diagnostic circuit and the frontal deceleration sensor, etc.
If the airbag sensor assy center receives signals from the frontal deceleration sensor, it judges whether or
not the SRS should be activated.
DTC B1149/37 is recorded when a malfunction is detected in the airbag sensor front LH circuit.
