DTC B0118/46 Short in Side Squib (LH) Circuit (to B+)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The side squib (LH) circuit consists of the airbag sensor assembly and side airbag assembly (LH).
It causes the SRS to deploy when the SRS deployment conditions are satisfied.
For details of the function of each component, see OPERATION on page RS-2 .
DTC B0118/46 is recorded when a B+ short is detected in the side squib (LH) circuit.
DTC No. DTC Detecting Condition Trouble Area
Short circuit in side squib (LH) wire harness (to B+) Side airbag assembly (LH)
B0118/46 Side squib (LH) malfunction Airbag sensor assembly
Airbag sensor assembly malfunction Wire harness

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Prepare for inspection (See step 1 on page DI-390 ).
2 Check side squib (LH) circuit.
ON CHECK:
(a) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(b) For the connector (on the side airbag assembly side) be-
Airbag tween the side airbag assembly (LH) and the airbag sen-
Squib (LH) Sensor
Assembly sor assembly, measure the voltage between SFL+ and
body ground.
OK:
Voltage: 0 V

3 Check airbag sensor assembly.
Squib (LH) →← PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assembly.
Airbag (b) Using a service wire, connect SFL+ and SFL- of the con-
Sensor
nector (on the side airbag assembly side) between the
Assembly
side airbag assembly (LH) and the airbag sensor assem-
bly.
(c) Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery,
and wait at least for 2 seconds.

OK
From the results of the above inspection, the malfunctioning part can now be considered normal.
To make sure of this, use the simulation method to check. If the malfunctioning part can not be
detected by the simulation method, replace all SRS components including the wire harness.
