Seat Occupancy Sensor Performance

Understand B2296, common causes, and the right TOPDON scanner to diagnose it.

Occupancy sensor readings inconsistent — may disable passenger airbag incorrectly.

Vanliga symptom

  • Passenger airbag off with adult seated
  • SRS lamp

Typiska orsaker

  • Occupancy mat wear
  • Object on seat confusing sensor
  • Failed pressure sensor bladder

Vilken scanner behöver du?

Full-system scanner (engine, ABS, SRS, transmission, service resets)

Använd live-data och freeze frame innan du byter delar. ABS-, SRS- och U-koder kräver oftast en fullsystems-scanner.

Diagnostiktips

  • Spara freeze frame när koden först sätts
  • Rensa koden först efter att orsaken är åtgärdad
  • Kontrollera relaterade väntande koder
  • Verifiera batterispänning över 12,4 V innan du misstänker sensorer
