Circuit Description
When you first turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within itself. Next the SDM measures IGNITION voltage to make sure it is within its respective normal voltage range. Then the SDM proceeds with the DEPLOYMENT LOOP CONTINUITY test. During the DEPLOYMENT LOOP CONTINUITY test, the SDM measures the voltage difference between Passenger Belt High and Passenger Belt Low.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The passenger seat belt pretensioner deployment loop resistance is more than 500 ohms. |
| • | The malfunction must be present for at least 500 milliseconds during one of the following tests: |
| - | DEPLOYMENT LOOP CONTINUITY |
| - | If the malfunction is detected in this test, the RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT test will not be performed. |
| - | CONTINUOUS MONITORING |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The SDM sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code. |
| • | The SDM turns ON the AIR BAG warning lamp. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | Current DTC |
| The passenger seat belt pretensioner deployment loop resistance is less than 100 ohms for 500 milliseconds. |
| • | History DTC |
| - | You issue a scan tool CLEAR CODES command. |
| - | Once 250 malfunction free ignition cycles have occurred. |
Diagnostic Aids
The following can cause an intermittent condition:
| • | A poor connection at the passenger seat buckle side belt harness connector terminals A and B. |
| • | A poor connection at the SDM terminals 14 and 45. |
| • | An open in CKT 2116. |
| • | An open in CKT 2117. |
When measurements are requested in this table, use J 39200 Digital Multimeter with the correct terminal adapter from J 35616 Connector Test Adapter Kit. When a check for proper connection is requested, refer to Intermittents and Poor Connections . When a wire, connector or terminal repair is requested, use J-38125 Terminal Repair Kit and refer to Wiring Repair .
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
-
This test determines the deployment loop resistance measured by the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM).
-
This test checks for proper contact or corrosion of the yellow 2-way connector.
-
This test isolates the malfunction to one side of the passenger seat buckle side belt yellow 2-way connector.
-
This test checks for proper contact or corrosion of the SDM connector.
-
This test determines whether the malfunction is in CKT 2116.
-
This test determines whether the malfunction is in CKT 2117.
