LEFT SIACM INTERNAL 1 - ACTIVE
When Monitored: When the ignition on, the Left SIACM on board diagnostics continu-
ously performs internal circuit tests.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the Left SIACM identifies an out of range internal
circuit.
LEFT SIACM INTERNAL 1 - STORED
When Monitored: When the ignition on, the Left SIACM on board diagnostics continu-
ously performs internal circuit tests.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the Left SIACM identifies an out of range internal
circuit.
LEFT SIACM OUTPUT DRIVER 1 - ACTIVE
When Monitored: When the ignition on, the Left SIACM on board diagnostics continu-
ously performs internal circuit tests.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the Left SIACM identifies an out of range internal
circuit.
LEFT SIACM OUTPUT DRIVER 1 - STORED
When Monitored: When the ignition on, the Left SIACM on board diagnostics continu-
ously performs internal circuit tests.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the Left SIACM identifies an out of range internal
circuit.
LEFT SIACM, LOSS OF IGNITION RUN-START - ACTIVE
When Monitored: With the ignition in the run or start position the Left SIACM monitors
the SIACM Run-Start Driver circuit for proper system voltage. This is an active trouble
code only.
Set Condition: If the voltage on the SIACM Run-Start Driver circuit is below 4.0 volts,
the code will set.
LEFT SIACM, NO PCI TRANSMISSION - ACTIVE
When Monitored: With the ignition in the On position and the Left SIACM transmitting
information on the PCI BUS.
Set Condition: The code will set, if the Left SIACM cannot detect the Left SIACM
transmitting information on the PCI BUS for 4 consecutive seconds. NOTE: Any PCI Bus
Failure will cause this code to set.

LEFT SIACM, SEAT SQUIB SHORT TO GROUND - STORED
When Monitored: When the ignition is on, the Left SIACM monitors the resistance of the
left Seat Squib circuits for low resistance.
Set Condition: The Left SIACM has detected a short to ground in the left Seat Squib
circuits.
ORC, INTERROGATE LEFT SIACM - STORED
When Monitored: With ignition on, the ORC monitors the PCI Bus for a Left SIACM
status message containing the airbag warning lamp9On or OFF9request. The status
message is sent to the ORC once each second or upon any change in the active DTCs.
Set Condition: The Code will set, if the ORC receives an9Lamp On9status message from
the Left SIACM. NOTE: This indicates that there was an active diagnostic trouble code in
the Left SIACM.
ORC, NO LEFT SIACM MESSAGE - STORED
When Monitored: With ignition on, the ORC monitors the PCI Bus for the Left SIACM
status message. The Left SIACM transmits the status message to the ORC at 1 - second
intervals.
Set Condition: If the ORC fails to see the Left SIACM status message on the PCI Bus for
10 seconds the code will set.
