DTC B15C4: Airbag Signal Malfunction/Not Input [10/2013 - ]: Procedure
- CHECK DTC (AIRBAG SYSTEM)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG) and wait for 10 seconds.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Check the DTC of "AIRBAG SYSTEM". Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [10/2013 - ]
.
Result
Result Proceed to DTC B15C4 is not output. A DTC B15C4 is output. B
B → See step 10
A: Go to next step
- INSPECT DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER) (GSW SIGNAL)
- Remove the DCM (Telematics Transceiver) but do not disconnect the connectors. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E11-24 (GSW) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 6.5 to 8.5 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component with harness connected
(DCM (Telematics Transceiver))REFERENCE WAVEFORMItem Condition Tester connection E11-24 (GSW) - Body ground Tool setting 5.0 V/DIV., 20 ms/DIV. Vehicle condition Engine switch on (IG) Result
Result Proceed to 8.5 V or higher A Below 6.5 V B 6.5 V to 8.5 V C
B → See step 4
C → See step 5
A: Go to next step
- Remove the DCM (Telematics Transceiver) but do not disconnect the connectors. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FOR OPEN CIRCUIT)
- Remove the airbag ECU assembly but do not disconnect the connectors. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition K4-3 (GSW3) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 8.5 V or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component with harness connected
(Airbag ECU Assembly)REFERENCE WAVEFORMItem Condition Tester connection K4-3 (GSW3) - Body ground Tool setting 5.0 V/DIV., 20 ms/DIV. Vehicle condition Engine switch on (IG)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → See step 11
- Remove the airbag ECU assembly but do not disconnect the connectors. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FOR SHORT CIRCUIT)
- Disconnect the E11 DCM (Telematics Transceiver) connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E11-24 (GSW) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → See step 7
OK: Go to next step
- REPLACE DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER)
- Replace the DCM (Telematics Transceiver). Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.NOTE:
- The engine switch must be off.
- Do not replace the DCM (Telematics Transceiver) with one from another vehicle.
NEXT: Go to next step
- Replace the DCM (Telematics Transceiver). Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
.
- PERFORM PRL UPDATE
- Perform "PRL UPDATE". Refer to PRL UPDATE [10/2013 - ] .
NEXT → See step 8
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER) - AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY)
- Disconnect the E11 DCM (Telematics Transceiver) connector.
- Disconnect the K4 airbag ECU assembly connector. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ] .
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E11-24 (GSW) - K4-3 (GSW3) Always Below 1 Ω E11-24 (GSW) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → See step 9
- PERFORM DCM ACTIVATION. Refer to DCM ACTIVATION [10/2013 - ]
- REPLACE AIRBAG ECU ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
- GO TO AIRBAG SYSTEM. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [10/2013 - ]
- REPLACE AIRBAG ECU ASSEMBLY. Refer to REMOVAL [10/2013 - ]
