Circuit | Short to Ground | High Resistance | Open | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
RH Roof Rail High Circuit | B0023 02 | B0023 0D | B0023 04 | B0023 01 | B0023 0E |
RH Roof Rail Low Circuit | B0023 02 | B0023 0D | B0023 04 | B0023 01 | B0023 0E |
During a side or frontal crash of sufficient force the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will allow current to flow through the deployment loop in order to deploy the RH roof rail. The SDM performs continuous diagnostic tests on the deployment loops to check for proper circuit continuity and for shorts to ground or voltage. A shorting bar used within the RH roof rail connector which will short together both RH roof rail high and low circuits when the connector is disconnected. This will help to prevent unwanted deployment of the inflator module during servicing.
Ignition voltage is between 9-16 volts.
The RH roof rail high and/or low circuit is short to voltage.
The LH roof rail high and/or low circuit is short to ground.
The LH roof rail high and/or low circuit is open.
The LH roof rail deployment loop resistance is more than 3.54 ohms.
The LH roof rail deployment loop resistance is less than 1.77 ohms.
• | The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON via serial data communications. |
• | The SIR System is disabled and no deployments are allowed. |
• | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool Clear DTCs function is used. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 255 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |
Important: When removing connectors inspect for damage or corrosion. Damage or corrosion in the following requires repair or replacement of the affected component/connector.
• The I/P module • The SDM module • The I/P wiring harness connector • The SDM wiring harness connector
⇒ | If any of the above conditions are found make the appropriate repair. |
⇒ | Replace the RH roof rail module. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
