This error code stands for "Open in knee airbag squib circuit (driver side)". This issue usually happens on some Lexus, Toyota, or Scion cars. I used an advanced diagnostic scanner to read the error code. After getting the error code I did some research and found out what was causing the problem. You can possibly fix the issue by applying tune-up dielectric grease to the airbag squib connector if the issue is caused by corrosion or oxidation. If this doesn't help, you will need to replace the airbag squib connector. I decided to attempt to do it myself. I got very lucky because I've got a letter from Lexus headquarters saying that this issue is qualified for a free repair under Recall / Customer Support Program (ZLJ). I took my car to Lexus and they took care of everything. If you are having the same exact issue, check on Toyota/Lexus/Scion website if you are qualified for the recall as well. I hope this video was helpful. Share this video:    • How to fix airbag warning light and B1861 ...
