DTC

B1780

Front Occupant Classification Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The front occupant detection sensor LH circuit consists of the occupant classification ECU and the front occupant detection sensor LH.

DTC B1780 is stored when a malfunction is detected in the front occupant detection sensor LH circuit.

DTC Code

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

B1780

One of following conditions is met:

  • Occupant classification ECU receives line short circuit signal, open circuit signal, short circuit to ground signal or short circuit to +B signal in front occupant detection sensor LH circuit for 2 seconds
  • Front occupant detection sensor LH malfunction
  • Occupant classification ECU malfunction
  • Front seat assembly RH (Front occupant detection sensor LH)
  • Front seat wire RH
  • Occupant classification ECU

HINT:

  • When DTC B1650/32 is detected as a result of troubleshooting the airbag system, perform troubleshooting for DTC B1780 of the occupant classification system.
  • Use the Techstream to check for DTCs of the occupant classification ECU, otherwise the DTC cannot be read.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:

After the ignition switch is turned off, the navigation system requires approximately 90 seconds to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the ignition switch off, wait 90 seconds or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

HINT:

  • If troubleshooting (wire harness inspection) is difficult to perform, remove the front seat RH installation bolts to see the undersurface of the seat cushion.
  • In the above case, hold the seat so that it does not fall down. Holding the seat for a long period of time may cause problems, such as seat rail deformation. Hold the seat up only for as long as necessary.

PROCEDURE

1.
