Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection procedure

1 Check side squib(lh) circuit(airbag sensor assy center – front seat airbag assy lh)

  1. Disconnect the negative (–) terminal cable from the battery, and wait at least for 90 seconds.
  2.  disconnect the connectors between the airbag sensor assy center and the front seat airbag assy (lh).
  3.  for the connector (on the front seat airbag assy side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the front seat airbag assy (lh), measure the resistance between sfl+ and sfl–.

    Ok: resistance: below 1 Ω

2 Check air bag sensor assy center

Sst 09843–18040

  1. Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assy center.
  2.  using a service wire, connect sfl+ and sfl– of the connector (on the front seat airbag assy side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the front seat airbag assy (lh).
  3.  connect the negative (–) terminal cable to the battery, and wait at least 2 seconds.
  4.  turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  5.  clear the dtc stored in memory .
  6.  turn the ignition switch to lock, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  7.  turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  8.  check the dtc .

    Ok: dtc b0116/48 is not output.

Hint

: codes other than code b0116/48 may be output at this time, but they are not relevant to this check.

    Circuit description
    The purpose of this circuit is to prevent the engine from stalling while driving in lock–up condition, when brakes are suddenly applied. When the brake pedal is depressed, this switch sends a signals to the ecm. Then the ecm cancels the operation of the lock–up clutch while braking is i ...

    Circuit description
    Refer to dtc p0010 Dtc no. Dtc detection condition Trouble area P0011 Condition (a) or (b) continues after engine is warmed up and engine speed at 550 to 4,000 rpm (problem of the advanced ocv):  valve timing does not change from current valve tim ...

    Inspection procedure
    Hint: if dtc p0441 (purge flow), p0446 (vsv for ccv or vsv for pressure switching valve), p0451, p0452 or p0453  is output with dtc p0442 or p0456 , first troubleshoot dtc p0441, p0446, p0451, p0452 or p0453. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot dtc p0442 or p0456 next. ...
