Front Occupant Classification Sensor RH Collision Detection
DTC B1786 Front Occupant Classification Sensor RH Collision Detection
DESCRIPTION
DTC B1786 is output when the occupant classification ECU receives a collision detection signal sent by the front occupant classification sensor RH if an accident occurs.
DTC B1786 is also output when the front seat assembly RH is subjected to a strong impact, even if an actual accident does not occur.
However, when the occupant classification ECU outputs a collision detection signal, even if the vehicle is not in a collision, DTC B1786 can be cleared by "Zero point calibration" and "Sensitivity check".
Therefore, if DTC B1786 is output, first perform "Zero point calibration" and "Sensitivity check".

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Zero point calibration".
OK: "COMPLETED" is displayed.
2 PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Sensitivity check".
Standard value: 27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
3 CHECK DTC
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory
HINT: First clear DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU and then in the center airbag sensor assembly. - Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Check the DTCs.
OK: DTC B1786 is not output.
HINT: Codes other than DTC B1786 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
4 REPLACE FRONT SEAT ASSEMBLY RH
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Replace the front seat assembly RH ( for flat type, SE-48 for manual seat, SE-58 for power seat).
HINT: Perform the inspection using parts from a normal vehicle if possible.
5 PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Zero point calibration".
OK: "COMPLETED" is displayed.
6 PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Sensitivity check".
Standard value: 27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
7 CHECK DTC
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory.
OK: DTC B1786 is not output.
HINT: Codes other than DTC B1786 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check
8 REPLACE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ECU
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Replace the occupant classification ECU
9 PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Zero point calibration".
OK: "COMPLETED" is displayed.
10 PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
- Using the intelligent tester, perform "Sensitivity check".
Standard value: 27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)
