INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Prepare for inspection (See step 1 on page DI±629).
2 Check side squib (LH) circuit.
PREPARATION:
Release the airbag activation prevention mechanism of the
connector (on the airbag sensor assembly side) between the
airbag sensor assembly and the side airbag assembly (LH)
(See page DI±497).
CHECK:
For the connector (on the side airbag assembly side) between
the side airbag assembly (LH) and the airbag sensor assembly,
measure the resistance between FL+ and FL±.
OK:
Resistance: 1 MW or Higher
NG Repair or replace harness or connector be-
tween side airbag assembly (LH) and airbag
sensor assembly.
OK

3 Check airbag sensor assembly.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assembly.
(b) Connect negative (±) terminal cable to the battery, and
wait at least for 2 seconds.
CHECK:
(a) Turn the ignition switch to ON and wait at least for 20 se-
conds.
(b) Clear the DTC stored in memory (See page DI±497).
(c) Turn the ignition switch to LOCK, and wait at least for 20
seconds.
(d) Turn the ignition switch or ON, and wait at least for 20 se-
conds.
(e) Check the DTC (See page DI±497).
OK:
DTC B0115/47 is not output.

conds.
(c) Clear the DTC stored in memory (See page DI±497).
(d) Turn the ignition switch to LOCK, and wait at least for 20
seconds.
(e) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait at least for 20 se-
conds.
(f) Check the DTC (See page DI±497).
OK:
DTC B0115/47 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than code B0115/47 may be output at this time, but
they are not relevant to this check.
NG Replace side airbag assembly (LH).
OK
From the results of the above inspection, the malfunctioning part can now be considered normal.
To make sure of this, use the simulation method to check.

DTC B0116/48 Open in Side Squib (LH) Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The side squib (LH) circuit consists of the airbag sensor assembly and side airbag assembly (LH).
It causes the SRS to deploy when the SRS deployment conditions are satisfied.
For details of the function of each component, see OPERATION on page RS±2.
DTC B0116/48 is recorded when an open is detected in the side squib (LH) circuit.
