DTC 19 Passenger Deployment Loop Short To B+
CAUTION: When DTC 19 has been set, it is necessary to replace the SDM. Setting DTC 19 will also cause DTC
71 to set. When a scan tool “CLEAR CODES” command is issued and the malfunction is no longer present,
DTC 71 will remain current. Ensure that the short to voltage condition is repaired prior to installing a
replacement SDM to avoid damaging the SDM.

Diagnostic Aids:
An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a poor
connection at terminals “1” and “2” of the SRS coil 2–pin
connector at the base of the steering column, terminal “1”
and “2” of the driver air bag assembly 2–pin connector at
the top of the steering column, SDM terminals “3” and “4”
or a poor wire to terminal connection in IB05–YEL orIB06–YEL/BLK. The test for this diagnostic trouble code
is only run while the “AIR BAG” warning lamp is
performing the bulb check, unless DTC 17 or DTC 26 is
detected. When a scan tool “Clear Codes” command is
issued and the malfunction is still present, the DTC will not
reappear until the next ignition cycle.
