Subaru Crosstrek Service Manual: Dtc b1810 short in driver s airbag dual stage - 2nd step

Diagnosis start condition:

Ignition voltage is 10 V to 16 V.

DTC detecting condition:

• Airbag main harness circuit is shorted.

• Airbag module harness (driver’s side) circuit is shorted.

• Roll connector circuit is shorted.

• Driver’s airbag module is faulty.

• Airbag control module is faulty.

Before performing diagnosis, refer to “CAUTION” in “General Description”. General Description > CAUTION">

Prior to starting work, prepare two AIRBAG RESISTORs (98299PA040).

1.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS.

Check for poor contact of the connectors between the airbag control module and the driver’s airbag module.

Is there poor contact?

Replace the airbag harness.

(3AG) No. 2 — (3AG) No. 4:

Is the resistance 1 M? or more?

Replace the roll connector. Roll Connector">

Replace the airbag main harness along with body harness.

5.CHECK AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE.

1) Connect all connectors.

2) Clear the memory. Clear Memory Mode">

3) Perform the Inspection Mode. Inspection Mode">

4) Read the DTC. (Current malfunction) Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)">

Is DTC B1810 displayed?
