DTC B1460: Seat Belt Pre-Tensioner (RH) (Squib) System Fault 1 (Short Circuit between Terminals of the Squib Circuit)
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The SRS-ECU judges how severe a collision is by detecting signals from the front impact sensors and the front air bag analog G-sensor. If the impact is over a predetermined level, the SRS-ECU outputs an ignition signal. At this time, if the front air bag safing G-sensor is on, the pre-tensioner will deploy. DTC SET CONDITIONS
This DTC is set if there is abnormal resistance between the input terminals of the passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner (squib). TROUBLESHOOTING HITS
Improper engaged connector or defective short spring*
Short circuit between the passenger's seat belt pre-tensioner (squib) circuit terminals
Damaged connector(s)
Malfunction of the SRS-ECU NOTE: *: The squib circuit connectors integrate a "short" spring (which prevents the air bag from deploying unintentionally due to static electricity by shorting the positive wire to the ground wire in the squib circuit when the connectors are disconnected) (Refer to ). Therefore, if connector C-27 or D-03 is damaged or improperly engaged, the short spring may not be released when the connector is connected.
