FAULT CODE 53
Front Impact Sensor Circuits Resistance to Ground or Internal Diagnostic Monitor Failure
Normal Operation
The DM measures the voltage on pins 2,6,17 and 18. If there is any resistance to ground on any of these pins or across
the front impact sensors contacts, it will cause the diagnostic voltage on these pins to drop below normal levels. If the
DM measures voltage drop to between 5 and 10 volts, the DM senses an internal voltage regulation failure and code
53 will be present.
A direct short to ground in the front impact sensor circuits
will drop the voltage to less than 5 volts and code 14 will
be present.
!!IQ&: The DM also performs several system self-tests every ignition cycle. If any of these tests fail, fault code 53 will
be present.
Fault Diagnosis
1. System verification
. Disarm the SRS system.
. Disconnect the battery ground lead, allow one minute for DM back-up power to drain.
. Disconnect the DM.
Remove the plastic locking wedge from the grey harness multi-plug connector.

15.2 INSTRUMENTS
15.2.1 Introduction
The instrument pack is a self-contained, removable unit, which incorporates all the main display gauges and warning
indicators that are used to present vehicle condition information. The instrument pack is programmed during vehicle
build, to match the vehicle's individual requirements using 'Programmable Electronic Control Units System'
(PECUS). This is achieved via the diagnostic communication line, and therefore, should be renewed like-for-like. The primary
function of the instrument display is to provide the driver with information usual to normal driving requirements. The
secondary function is to display trip computer information.
The trip computer functions are selected via the steering column stalk switch
(LH). The messages are displayed in the
following order:
Odometer
- Distance - Range - Fuel Used -Average Fuel -Average Speed - Instant Fuel - Odometer (return).
Two trip computer switches, 'Reset' and 'Odo', are incorporated into the facia switch panel.
Instrument pack information is received from sensors positioned
at various locations about the vehicle (Fig. 1, follow-
ing page) via one of the two multi-pin sockets located at the rear of the instrument pack.
Information concerning vehicle condition and operation is displayed in one of three ways:
0 Information necessary to confirm normal vehicle operation: road speed, engine speed, oil pressure, battery
condition, fuel level, coolant temperature. This information is displayed using analogue gauges.
0 Information indicating the presence of a hazard/fault condition (low oil pressure/door open etc.) or operational
action (indicator flashing / headlamp full beam 'on' etc.). This information is provided by twenty two warning
lampsltell-tales, arranged in four groups; two groups of seven at the left and right sides of the instrument pack
and two groups of four
at the bottom of the instrument pack.
0 A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is located at the bottom-centre of the instrument pack and is normally used to
display the odometer reading, but it can also be used to display SRS fault conditions and trip computer informa-
tion such as vehicle speed, fuel usage and distance travelled.
