Condition

Some customers may comment on the airbag light being illuminated.

Upon investigation, the technician may find DTC B1000 with symptom code 37 set as current or in history.

Correction

Important: You must contact Techline (1-800-828-6860 English or 1-800-503-3222 French) to obtain a VCI number.

New software for the Passenger Presence System (PPS) has been released to disable this diagnostic check to prevent false setting of DTC B1000. Reprogram the PPS module with updated calibration files using the TIS2WEB Service Programming System (SPS) application. As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software version.

Perform a PPS rezero/preload procedure upon a successful module reprogramming event.
