Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Toyota RAV4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CHECK FOR DTC
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. "(b) Clear the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
  HINT:
  
  First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU and then in the center airbag sensor.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for at least 10 seconds.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
5. Check the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
  OK:
  
  DTC B1794 is not output.
  
  HINT:
  
  DTCs other than B1794 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
OK: USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK

NG: Go to next step
CHECK FUSE (ECU-B)
1. Check the ECU-B fuse.
  Standard resistance:
  
  Below 1 Ω
NG: REPLACE FUSE

OK: Go to next step
CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTOR
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the occupant classification ECU.
  OK:
  
  The connectors are properly connected.
NG: CONNECT CONNECTOR

OK: Go to next step

CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SOURCE VOLTAGE)

Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
Disconnect the L1 connector from the occupant classification ECU.

NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU)

OK: Go to next step

CHECK FOR DTC
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
3. Connect the connectors to the occupant classification ECU.
4. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON.
6. Clear the DTCs (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
  HINT:
  
  First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU and then in the center airbag sensor.
7. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for at least 10 seconds.
8. Turn the ignition switch ON.
9. Using the Techstream, check for DTCs of the occupant classification ECU (see DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
  OK:
  
  DTC B1794 is not output.
  
  HINT:
  
  DTCs other than B1794 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
OK: USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK

NG: Go to next step
REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
3. Replace the occupant classification ECU (see REMOVAL ).
PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
4. Using the Techstream, perform the zero point calibration (see INITIALIZATION ).
  OK:
  
  "Zero Point Calibration is complete." is displayed.
PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
1. Using the Techstream, perform the sensitivity check (see INITIALIZATION ).
  Standard value:
  
  27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
