Circuit Description
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will perform tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within itself.
After passing these tests, ignition and deployment loop voltages are measured to ensure that they are within their respective normal voltage ranges. The SDM then proceeds with the resistance measurement test. Each inflator low terminal is grounded through a current sink, and each inflator current source is connected to each inflator high terminal to allow a known amount of current to flow.
By monitoring the voltage difference between each inflator high and low, the SDM calculates the combined resistance of the inflator module, the wiring harness, and the connector terminal contacts.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B0058 RF Pretensioner Deployment Loop Resistance Open
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | Resistance of the passenger belt pretensioner deployment loop is higher than 4.8 ohms for 5 consecutive test cycle. |
| • | Voltage at passenger belt pretensioner high is less than 2.4 volts and resistance of passenger belt pretensioner deployment loop is higher than or equal to 6 ohms for 5 consecutive test cycle. |
Action Taken When The DTC Sets
The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool Clear DTCs function is used.
Diagnostic Aids
An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a poor connection at the passenger belt pretensioner connector, or at terminals A7 and A8 of the SDM.
