SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

  1. GENERAL In the occupant classification system, the occupant classification ECU calculates the weight of the occupant based on signals from the occupant classification sensors. This system recognizes the occupant as a child if it detects a weight of less than 36 kg (79.3 lb), and disables the front passenger airbag and front seat belt pretensioner RH. This system is mainly comprised of 4 occupant classification sensors that detect the load on the front passenger seat. The occupant classification ECU controls the system, and the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator indicates the ON/OFF condition of the front passenger airbag and front seat belt pretensioner RH.

INITIALIZATION

Note. Make sure that the front passenger seat is not occupied before performing the operation.

HINT

Perform zero point calibration and sensitivity check if any of the following conditions occur

  1. The occupant classification ECU is replaced.
  2. Accessories (seatback tray and seat cover, etc.) are installed.
  3. The front passenger seat is removed from the vehicle.
  4. The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("OFF") comes on when the front passenger seat is not occupied.
  5. The vehicle is brought to the workshop for repair due to an accident or a collision.
  1. ZERO POINT CALIBRATION Zero point calibration procedure HINT: Make sure that zero point calibration has finished normally, and then perform the sensitivity check. Check that all of the following conditions are met: The vehicle is parked on a level surface. No objects are placed on the front passenger seat. The front passenger seat belt buckle switch is off. Adjust the seat position according to the table below. Adjustment Item Position Slide Direction Rearmost position Reclining Angle Upright position Headrest Height Lowest position Lifter Height Lowest position Turn the power switch off. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch on (IG). Turn the Techstream on. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical/Occupant Detection/Utility/Zero Point Calibration. Perform zero point calibration by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details. If zero point calibration does not complete, replace the front seat cushion spring assembly. OK "Zero Point Calibration is complete." is displayed.
  2. SENSITIVITY CHECK Sensitivity check procedure Turn the power switch off. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch on (IG). Turn the Techstream on. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical/Occupant Detection/Utility/Sensitivity Check. Perform sensitivity check by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details. Confirm that the initial sensor reading is within the specified range. Standard -3.2 to 3.2 kg (-7.0 to 7.0 lb) Place a 30 kg (66.1 lb) weight (e.g. a 30 kg (66.1 lb) of lead mass) onto the front passenger seat. Confirm that sensitivity is within the specified range. Standard 27 to 33 kg (59.5 to 72.8 lb) HINT: When performing sensitivity check, use a solid metal weight (the check result may not appear properly if a liquid weight is used). If sensitivity deviates from the specified range, retighten the bolts of the front passenger seat without deforming the seat rail. After performing this procedure, if sensitivity is not within the specified range, replace the Front seat cushion spring assembly.

  1. CHECK DLC3 Check the DLC3. Refer to «GENERAL INFORMATION»(/toyota/prius-phv/pre-iii-2010-2011/remont/hoistjack/#introduction-except-phv) .
  2. FUNCTION OF PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR Initial check Turn the power switch on (IG). The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("ON" and "OFF") comes on for approximately 4 seconds, then goes off for approximately 2 seconds. Approximately 6 seconds after the power switch is turned on (IG), the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator will indicate ON or OFF depending on the conditions listed below. Front Passenger Seat Condition Passenger Airbag ON/OFF Indicator SRS Warning Light ON Indicator OFF Indicator Vacant OFF OFF OFF Adult is seated. ON OFF OFF Child is seated. OFF ON OFF Child restraint system is set. OFF ON OFF Occupant classification system failure OFF ON ON HINT: The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator illuminates based on the timing chart below in order to check the indicator light circuit. When the occupant classification system has trouble, both the SRS warning light and passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("OFF") come on. In this case, check the DTCs in the airbag system first.
  3. CHECK PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR Turn the power switch on (IG). Check that the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("ON" and "OFF") comes on for approximately 4 seconds, then goes off for approximately 2 seconds. HINT: Refer to the table in previous step regarding the passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator when the power switch is turned on (IG) and approximately 6 seconds elapse.

DTC CHECK/CLEAR

  1. DTC CHECK Turn the power switch off. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch on (IG). Turn the Techstream on. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical/Occupant Detection/Trouble Codes. Check the DTCs by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.
  2. DTC CLEAR Turn the power switch off. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch on (IG). Turn the Techstream on. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical/Occupant Detection/Trouble Codes. Clear the DTCs by following the prompts on the Techstream screen. HINT: Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.

DATA LIST/ACTIVE TEST

  1. DATA LIST HINT: Using the Techstream to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. NOTE: In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not. Turn the power switch off. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. Turn the power switch on (IG). Turn the Techstream on. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical/Occupant Detection/Data List. Check the values by referring to the table below.
