Toyota Sienna Service Manual: PBD Pulse Sensor Malfunction
DTC B2222 PBD Pulse Sensor Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
- A pulse sensor is built into the back door for a jam and foreign
object detection and for back door
position detection. The jam and foreign object detection feature of the
pulse sensor monitors the
operating speed of the back door while the power back door is in operation.
The back door position
detection feature of the pulse sensor monitors the back door location. If
the back door position
detection feature outputs a pulse signal that is out of the normal range,
the power back door ECU will
set DTC B2222.
- If DTC B2222 sets, the power back door system will be turned off.
Thus, the back door can be moved
freely and will be switched to manual operation mode (not electrically
controlled).
- In order to restore the power back door system to normal operation
mode, first solve the problem
indicated by DTC B2222 and then manually close the back door fully (reset
operation).

WIRING DIAGRAM

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POWER BACK DOOR DRIVE UNIT - POWER BACK DOOR ECU)

- Disconnect the P12 unit and P13 ECU connectors.
- Check the resistance between the wire harness side
connectors.
Resistance (Check for open circuit)

2 INSPECT POWER BACK DOOR DRIVE UNIT

- Remove the unit.
- Connect the battery positive (+) lead to terminal 3 and
battery negative (-) terminal lead to terminal 9.
- Apply battery voltage to the terminals and check the
motor operation.
OK

- Check the resistance of the clutch terminals.
Resistance

- Reinstall the unit with the connector connected.

- Check the pulse of the pulse sensor.
- Using an oscilloscope, check the pulse generated
when the door is manually opened and closed.
Reference

HINT:
A cycle of the pulse changes between approx. 10 to
20 msec. according to the speeds that the slide door
is moving.
NOTICE:
When disconnecting the drive unit, initialize the
power back door system
REPLACE POWER BACK DOOR ECU
If a malfunction code is displayed during the DTC check,
check the circuit listed for that code in the table below.

Set "BASS", "MID" and "TREB" to the initial values and
check that sound is normal.
OK:
Malfunction disappears.

Indicator Circuit
DESCRIPTION
This system has two indicator lights. One of the indicator lights is built
into the fold seat switch. This
indicator light receives power from the fold seat control ECU. It comes on or
blinks when the system
detects that an object is caught or when the seat operation conditions ar ...
Replacing light bulbs
Headlight low beams (halogen bulb)
For left side only: Open the fuse box cover.
Unplug the connector while
pushing the lock release.
Turn the bulb base counterclockwise.
Install a new light bulb.
