DTC B0053 Deployment Commanded with Loop DTCs Present

Circuit Description
The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) contains sensing devices that convert vehicle velocity changes to electrical signals. The SDM processes the generated electrical signals and compares them to values stored in memory. When the generated signals exceed the stored values, the SDM performs additional signal processing and compares the generated signals to signals stored in memory. When 2 of the generated signals exceed the stored values, the SDM will cause current to flow through the inflator modules, deploying the inflator modules. DTC B0053 will set along with DTC B0051 when a deployment occurs while a circuit malfunction is present in any one of the deployment loops.

DTC B0053 is a latched code. You cannot clear a latched code. Replace the SDM after following the instructions in the diagnostic table.

Did you have an air bag deployment ?

What code ? Plugging in a scan tool to check codes is how it's done , not by the light blinking an then staying on . Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop.

AIR BAG Indicator
The AIR BAG indicator, located in the IPC is used to notify the driver of SIR system malfunctions and to verify that the SDM is communicating with the IPC. When the ignition is turned ON, the SDM and the IPC are supplied with ignition 1 voltage. The IPC responds by flashing the AIR BAG indicator seven times. While the IPC is flashing the AIR BAG indicator, the SDM conducts tests on all SIR system components and circuits. If no malfunctions are detected, the SDM will command the IPC to turn the AIR BAG indicator OFF via Class 2 serial data. The SDM provides continuous monitoring of the inflator module circuits by conducting a sequence of checks. If a malfunction is detected, the SDM will store a DTC and command the IPC to turn the AIR BAG indicator ON via Class 2 serial data. The presence of a SIR system malfunction could result in non-deployment of the inflator modules in the event of a collision, or deployment of the inflator modules without the event of a collision. The AIR BAG indicator will remain ON until the malfunction has been repaired.


Code's on a factory or professional scan tool look like this
DTC B0012, B0013, B0014, B0016, B0017, or B0018
DTC B0022, B0024, B0026, B0042, B0043, or B0044

DTC B1001


Doesn't do the flashing light code thing .

No 73 code.. double check and look here:

How did you get the code? Usually the unit will give a brief description. Try auto zone for a free code test.

You do not want to be messing with airbags unless you are well trained with them. You have a resistance problem indicting an airbag fault on the passenger side from what info I could find. That indicates in a crash that that airbag will not be functioning properly or at all. Find a professional as airbags are very dangerous if you do not know what you are doing.

If you replaced the airbags, it might be that the code just needs to be turned off. I had the same thing with mine, sometimes the code is not turned off after replacement.

Hi.

The airbag light means that a problem with the airbag has been detected and that there is an error code stored in the airbag control module. The code will tell you what is wrong with the airbag. The code can be read at the nearest Lexus dealer, you will be charged a fee of $80.

Sometimes the light can be reset by disconnecting battery for ten minutes. Disconnecting battery will also delete the error codes stored. If the light comes back when you connect back the battery, that means that the problem is still there, and that the airbag control module detected the problem immediately.

Regards.

Hello: Sir, There are a total of 5 (five) modules in the Inflatable restraint system, ( airbag) I will list them, their purpose and location:
Sensing & Diagnostic Module, the main module located under the rear of center console, Driver side inflator module located left side driver seat back . driver side inpact sensor located left lower side of center left pillar. steering wheel inflator module under the horn pad in the steering wheel. passenger front side inflator module located under righ side of upper instrument panel . Right front passenger side impact module right side of passenger seat lower back. Rf passenger side impact sensor. lower part of center pillar. The left and right sensors are not modules . Note, Codes B0051 and B0053 require replacement and programming with a scanner. Hope this helps you
