Sleep Operation Failure of Occupant Classification ECU (B1796)

During sleep mode, the occupant classification ECU monitors the condition of each sensor while the ignition switch is off. In this mode, if the occupant classification ECU detects an internal malfunction, DTC B1796 is stored.

HINT:

• When DTC B1650/32 is stored as a result of troubleshooting the airbag system, perform troubleshooting for DTC B1796 of the occupant classification system.
• Use the Techstream to check for DTCs of the occupant classification ECU, otherwise the DTCs cannot be read.

1. CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and wait for at least 60 seconds.

(b) Clear the DTCs stored in memory (See page
).

HINT:

• First clear the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU, and then clear the DTCs stored in the center airbag sensor.
