Circuit Description
Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic module (SDM) includes a detecting device. It can transfer the change of speed into electrical signals. SDM compares the signal with the value stored in the memory. When the detected signal is larger than the stored value, SDM will conduct additional signal treatment and compare it with the value in the memory. When both of the signal values are larger than the stored value, SDM will allow the current to flow through the deployment loop to deploy the airbag and set DTC B0055.
The SDM commands an airbag to deploy, when there is not fault, the DTC will set.
DTC Descriptor
The diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B0055 Command Side Airbag to Deploy
Conditions for Running the DTC
There is ignition 1 voltage.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
Ignition voltage must exist and the SDM must command an air bag to deploy.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The SDM will set DTC B0055. |
| • | The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON via GMLAN serial data communications. |
| • | The SDM will record the striking data. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC B0055 is locked DTC. The locked DTC can not be cleared. After performing the steps in the diagnostic table, replace the SDM.
Step | Action | Yes | No |
