Circuit | Short to Ground | Low Resistance | High Resistance | Open | Short to Voltage |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
I/P Module Stage 1 High Control | B0019 02 | B0019 0D | B0019 04 | B0019 01 | B0019 0E |
I/P Module Stage 1 Low Control | B0019 02 | B0019 0D | B0019 04 | B0019 01 | B0019 0E |
I/P Module Stage 2 High Control | B0020 02 | B0020 0D | B0020 04 | B0020 01 | B0020 0E |
I/P Module Stage 2 Low Control | B0020 02 | B0020 0D | B0020 04 | B0020 01 | B0020 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 an inflatable restraint module. There are 2 shorting bars used within the module connector which will short together both 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 I/P module high and/or low circuit is short to voltage for 120 milliseconds.
The I/P module high and/or low circuit is short to ground for 120 milliseconds.
The I/P module high and/or low circuit is open for 120 milliseconds.
The I/P module deployment loop resistance is more than 5.1 ohms for 120 milliseconds.
The I/P module deployment loop resistance is less than 1.3 ohms for 120 milliseconds.
• | The SDM requests the instrument panel cluster (IPC) to illuminate the AIR BAG indicator. |
• | The SDM will store a DTC, however if an event occurs the system will still attempt deployments. |
• | The condition for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

Important: Refer to SIR Service Precautions .
When removing the connectors, inspect for damage or corrosion. Damage or corrosion to the following requires repair or replacement of the affected component/connector:• | Inflatable restraint module |
• | SDM module |
• | Front end sensor wiring harness connector |
• | SDM wiring harness connector |
Important: The connector and connector position assurance (CPA) may seat independent of each other. Both the connector and CPA should seat with an audible and/or tactile click. The CPA isolates the shoring-bars within the connector allowing the deployment circuit to operate properly.
⇒ | If the above condition is not found, make the appropriate repair. |
⇒ | If the DTC is not set or is set as history, cycle the ignition OFF, disconnect the load tool and adapter, reconnect the harness connector at the I/P inflatable restraint module, and cycle the ignition ON. If the DTC resets after reconnecting the module, replace the I/P inflatable restraint module. |
