Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection procedure

1 Check p squib circuit(airbag sensor assy center – instrument panel passenger airbag assy)

  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 instrument panel passenger airbag assy.
  3.  release the airbag activation prevention mechanism of the connector (on the airbag sensor assy center side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the instrument panel passenger airbag assy .
  4.  for the connector (on the instrument panel passenger airbag assy side) between the airbag sensor assy center and the instrument panel passenger airbag assy, measure the resistance between p2+ and p2–.

    Ok: resistance: 1 mw or higher

  1. Connect the connector to the airbag sensor assy center.
  2.  connect the negative (–) terminal cable to the battery, and wait at least for 2 seconds.
  3.  turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  4.  clear the dtc stored in memory .
  5. turn the ignition switch to lock, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  6.  turn the ignition switch to on, and wait at least for 20 seconds.
  7.  check the dtc .

    Ok: dtc b1185/57 is not output.

Hint

: codes other than code b1185/57 may be output at this time, but they are not relevant to this check.

    Eco drive mode (if equipped)
    Press the switch. Suitable for enhancing the fuel economy, because the torque corresponding to the accelerator pedal depression amount can be generated more smoothly than it is in normal conditions and the operation of the air conditioning system (heating/cooling) will be minimized. Press th ...
