Title: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: AIRBAG SYSTEM: B167B,B167C; Lost Communication with Front Door Pressure Sensor LH; 2023 - 2024 MY Camry [08/2022 -        ]

DTC

B167B

Lost Communication with Front Door Pressure Sensor LH

DTC

B167C

Front Door Pressure Sensor LH Initialization Incomplete

DESCRIPTION

The side collision sensor LH circuit (bus 1) consists of the airbag sensor assembly and door side airbag sensor LH.

The door side airbag sensor LH detect impacts to the vehicle and send signals to the airbag sensor assembly to determine if the airbags and pretensioners should be deployed.

These DTCs are stored when a malfunction is detected in the side collision sensor LH circuit (bus 1).

DTC No.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK CONNECTION OF CONNECTORS

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

(c) Check that the connectors are properly connected to the door side airbag sensor LH and airbag sensor assembly. Also check that the connectors that link the floor wire and front door wire LH are properly connected.

OK:

The connectors are properly connected.
