Code No.B1499: SRS-ECU air bag condition monitor detects deployed air bag
| caution |
If diagnosis code B1499 is set in the SRS-ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus line.
|
DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This diagnosis code is set after the air bag has deployed. If this diagnosis code is set before the air bag has deployed, the cause is probably a malfunction inside the SRS-ECU.
PROBABLE CAUSE
Malfunction of the SRS-ECU
|
|
STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics.
|
|
|
| warning |
Since the radiator fan rotates during CAN bus line diagnostics, make sure that no one is servicing the engine compartment before diagnosing the CAN bus line. Since the CAN communication stops when diagnosing the CAN bus line, the ETACS-ECU detects the time-out of the engine-ECU, and activates the radiator fan to prevent overheating as fail-safe.
|
|
|
|
Use the M.U.T.-III to check the CAN bus lines.
|
|
|
Q.
Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
|
|
|
 Go to Step 2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C, Troubleshooting - Can Bus Diagnosis Table  ).
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.
|
|
|
Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
|
|
|
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
|
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
|
|
|
(3)Check if the diagnosis code is set.
|
|
|
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
|
|
|
Q.
Is the diagnosis code B1499 set?
|
|
|
Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
