Circuit Description

When the ignition switch is turned ON, battery voltage is applied to the AIR BAG warning lamp. Battery voltage is also applied to the Ignition 1 input terminal A9 and the Ignition 1 input terminal A10. The supplemental restraint Diagnostic Energy Reserve Module (DERM) responds by flashing the AIR BAG warning lamp seven times. The flashing alternates between the primary lamp driver and the redundant lamp driver. The DERM monitors the redundant lamp driver output by comparing the output state at the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Indicator terminal B1 to the microprocessor commanded state. When the ignition 1 is above a specified value and the output state does not match the commanded state of the redundant lamp driver for 400 milliseconds, DTC B1062 is set.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The Ignition 1 voltage is above a specified value, and the output state at the Supplemental Restraint System Indicator terminal B1 does not match the commanded state of the redundant lamp driver for 400 milliseconds, during Continuous monitoring tests.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The DERM attempts to turn on the AIR BAG warning lamp using the primary lamp driver and the DERM sets a diagnostic trouble code.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The ignition switch is turned OFF.

Diagnostic Aids

An intermittent condition may be caused by one of the following reasons:

    • A poor connection to the DERM at terminal A2
    • A poor connection to the DERM at terminal B2
    • An open in CKT 1851
    • An open in CKT 39

Test Description

Refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. Start at the SRS Diagnostic System Check for all diagnosis.

  2. This test checks for an open in the Redundant Indicator ground circuit.

  3. This test checks for an open in the Redundant Indicator Ignition 1 circuit.

  4. This test locates the open in the Redundant Indicator Ignition 1 circuit.

When measurements are requested in this table, use J 39200 Digital Multimeter with correct terminal adapter from J 35616 Connector Test Adapter Kit. When a check for proper connection is requested, refer to Intermittents and Poor Connections in Section 8A4. When a wire, connector or terminal repair is requested, use J-38125 Terminal Repair Kit and refer to Wiring Repair.
