DTC 82-14: No Signal From the Front Passenger's Weight Sensor (front inner side)
- Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, find out if the vehicle was in a collision. If so, verify that all the required components were replaced with new components, of the correct part number, and that they were properly installed. (See COMPONENT REPLACEMENT/INSPECTION AFTER DEPLOYMENT ).
- Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, review SRS PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES and, General Troubleshooting Information (see DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES) ).
- These SWS DTCs are cleared by turning the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Raise the front passenger's seat all the way up.
- Clear the DTCs with the HDS (see CLEAR THE DTC MEMORY ).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then wait for 10 seconds.
- Check for the DTCs with the HDS (see READING THE DTC
).
Is DTC 82-14 indicated?
YES - Go to step 5
NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITTENT FAILURES . If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot the DTC.
- From the HDS Main Menu, select SRS, then Inspection. In the Inspection Menu, select SWS DTC CHECK.
Is an SWS DTC also indicated?
YES -
- DTC 14-11: Short to power in the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) power circuit; replace the front passenger's seat wire harness, then clear the DTC.
- DTC 14-12: Short to ground in the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) power circuit. Go to step 6.
- DTC 14-13: Open in the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) output circuit. Go to step 14.
- DTC 14-14: Short to ground in the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) output circuit. Go to step 23.
NO -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITTENT FAILURES .
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) 3P connector (A) on the front passenger's seat wire harness.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then wait for 10 seconds.
- Check for the DTCs with the HDS (see READING THE DTC
).
Is SWS DTC 14-12 indicated?
YES -Go to step 10
NO -Faulty front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side); replace the front passenger's seat rail including all four front passenger's weight sensors (see FRONT PASSENGER'S WEIGHT SENSOR REPLACEMENT ), then clear the DTC.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Disconnect the ODS unit 18P connector (A) from the ODS unit.
- Measure the resistance between body ground and ODS unit 18P connector terminal No. 3.

- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Swap the connections between the front inner side front passenger's weight sensor and the rear inner side sensor.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then wait for 10 seconds.
- Check for the DTCs with the HDS (see READING THE DTC
).
Is DTC 14-13 indicated?
YES -Go to step 18
NO -Faulty front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side); replace the front passenger's seat frame including all four front passenger's weight sensors, then clear the DTC. (See FRONT SEAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect the front passenger's weight sensor (front inner side) 3P connector (A) and the front passenger's weight sensor (rear inner side) 3P connector (B) on the ODS unit harness.
- Disconnect the ODS unit 18P connector (A) from the ODS unit.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
