WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lexus LS 460L and 2010 Lexus LS 460. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK FOR DTC
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Clear the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
- Clear the DTCs stored in the center airbag sensor. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG), and wait for at least 10 seconds.
- Check for the DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR
.
OK
DTC B1797 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B1797 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
NG → See step 2
OK → See step 8
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (SPECIFIED CONDITION FOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Using the Techstream, read the "Data List". Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
.OCCUPANT DETECTION:
Tester Display Measurement Item/ Range Normal Condition Specified Condition for Zero Point Calibration Diagnostic Note Pressure sensor output Pressure sensor output / Min.: 0, Max.: 255 0 to 210
(reference value)0 to 2 - Filtered pressure sensor output Filtered pressure sensor output / Min.: 0, Max.: 255 38 to 240 38 to 75 If value is outside range of Specified Condition for Zero Point Calibration, check whether any objects are placed on seat cushion and that seat cushion is fitted correctly. Thermistor temperature output Thermistor temperature output / Min.: -40°C (-40°F), Max.: 90°C (194°F) -40 to 85°C
(-40 to 185°F)3 to 40°C
(36 to 104°F)If value is outside range of Specified Condition for Zero Point Calibration, adjust temperature to proper range by using air conditioner, etc. Number of Present DTC Number of present trouble codes / Min.: 0, Max.: 255 0 0 - Number of Past DTC Number of past trouble codes / Min.: 0, Max.: 255 0 0 - RESULTResult Proceed to All items correspond to range of specified condition for zero point calibration A "Themi Temp" does not correspond to range of specified condition for zero point calibration B
B → See step 5
A: Go to next step
- PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Using the Techstream, perform zero point calibration. Refer to INITIALIZATION .
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Clear the DTCs stored in the memory. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR
.
HINT:
If the DTCs are not cleared at this time, past DTCs will remain.
NEXT: Go to next step
- CHECK FOR DTC
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).

- Turn the engine switch off.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Check for the DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR
.
OK
DTC B1797 is not output.
HINT:
Codes other than DTC B1797 may be output at this time, but they are not related to this check.
NG → See step 5
OK → END
- REPLACE FRONT SEAT SET (OCCUPANT DETECTION SENSOR)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
- Replace the front seat set (with occupant classification ECU and occupant detection sensor). Refer to DISASSEMBLY .
- Connect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Clear the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
- Clear the DTCs stored in the center airbag sensor. Refer to REMOVAL .
NEXT: Go to next step
- PERFORM ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Using the Techstream, perform zero point calibration. Refer to INITIALIZATION .
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Clear the DTCs stored in the occupant classification ECU. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR
.
HINT:
If the DTCs are not cleared at this time, past DTCs will remain.
NEXT: Go to next step
- PERFORM SENSITIVITY CHECK
- Perform the sensitivity check. Refer to INITIALIZATION .
NEXT → END
- USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
