DTC B181A-7A: Short in Passenger Side Airbag Variable Vent Hole Squib Circuit; DTC B181B-7A: Open in Passenger Side Airbag Variable Vent Hole Squib Circuit; DTC B181C-7A: Short to GND in Passenger Side Airbag Variable Vent Hole Squib Circuit; DTC B181D-7A: Short to B+ in Passenger Side Airbag Variable Vent Hole Squib Circuit [08/2015 - 08/2017]: Procedure
- CHECK FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG (VARIABLE VENT HOLE SQUIB)
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Disconnect the connectors from the front passenger airbag.
- Connect the white wire side of SST (resistance: 2.1 Ω) to connector E (orange connector).WARNING:
Never connect the tester to the front passenger airbag (variable vent hole squib) for measurement, as this may lead to a serious injury due to airbag deployment.
NOTE:- Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting SST.
- Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
- SST: 09843-18061
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Clear the DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2015 - 08/2017] ).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Check for DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2015 - 08/2017]
).
OK

OK
The lock button is not disengaged, and the claw of the lock is not deformed or damaged.
Result:
NG
REPLACE NO. 2 INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRE ASSEMBLY
Result:
OK
See step 3
- CHECK VARIABLE VENT HOLE SQUIB CIRCUIT
- Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition z15-1 (P2+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V z15-2 (P2-) - Body ground - Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition z15-1 (P2+) - z15-2 (P2-) Always Below 1 Ω - Release the activation prevention mechanism built into connector B (Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM [08/2015 - 08/2017] ).
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition z15-1 (P2+) - z15-2 (P2-) Always 1 MΩ or higher z15-1 (P2+) - Body ground z15-2 (P2-) - Body ground
Result:
NG
See step 5
Result:
OK
See step 4
- Disconnect the connectors from the center airbag sensor.
- CHECK CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR
- Restore the released activation prevention mechanism of connector B to the original condition.
- Connect the connectors to the front passenger airbag and center airbag sensor.
- Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 2 seconds.
- Turn the ignition switch ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Clear the DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2015 - 08/2017] ).
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Turn the ignition switch ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.
- Check for DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2015 - 08/2017]
).
OK
DTC B181A, B181B, B181C or B181D is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B181A, B181B, B181C and B181D may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
Result:
OK
USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK
(Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM [08/2015 - 08/2017] )
Result:
NG
REPLACE CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
