Circuit Description

When the ignition is turned ON the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) compares the restraint ID that is stored in the SDM to the restraints ID that is stored in the dash integration module (DIM). The restraints ID that is being compared to contains the last 4 digits of SDM part number. The SDM receives these messages and compares them to information stored in memory. This DTC is set when the SDM receives a restraints ID over the class 2 communication circuit from the DIM that is different from the ID that is stored in the SDM memory.

DTC Descriptor

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

DTC B1001 Option Configuration Error

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition 1 voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • The restraints ID that is stored in the SDM does not match the restraints ID that is stored in the DIM.
    • This test is only run once during power initialization.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The SDM commands ON the AIR BAG warning lamp via class 2 serial data.
    • The SDM disables all deployments.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The restraints ID that is stored in the SDM matches the restraints ID that is stored in the DIM.

Diagnostic Aids

This DTC is an indication that an incorrect SDM is installed in the vehicle, or that the SDM and/or the DIM was replace without reprogramming the DIM with the new information.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic table:

  1. This test inspects for current SDM DTCs.

  2. This test inspects to see if the correct VIN is programmed in the DIM.

  3. This step explains that the DIM must be programmed.

  4. This test inspects to see if after clearing the DTCs, if this DTC is current, that it is possible that the wrong SDM has been installed.

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Use the scan tool to request SIR DTCs displayed.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.

Does the scan tool indicate that this DTC is current?

Go to Step 3

Go to Step 8

3

With the scan tool, verify that the dash integration module (DIM) is programmed with the correct VIN that is stored in the DIM, to the VIN plate of the vehicle.

Is the DIM programmed with the correct VIN?

Go to Step 5

Go to Step 4

4

Use the scan tool to program the correct VIN into the DIM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
