Chart B ªAIR BAGº Warning Lamp Comes ªONº Steady
D09R200001
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is first turned ªONº, ªignition 1º
voltage is applied from the ªMA01º meter fuse to ªAIR
BAGº, warning lamp which is connected to ªSRS warning
lampº, terminal ª7º. The ªSRS±1º fuses apply system
voltage to the ªignition 1º inputs, terminals ª12º. The SDM
responds by flashing the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp 7
times. If ªignition 1º voltage is less than 9 volts, the ªAIR
BAGº warning lamp will come ªONº solid with no DTCs
set.
Chart Test Description:
Number (s) below refer to step number (s) on the
diagnostic chart.
2. This test checks for an open in the ªignition 1º circuit
to the SDM.
3. This test checks for the voltage of ªignition 1.º
4. This test determines whether the malfunction is a
short to ground in CKT IB04 ± GRN.

DTC 15 Passenger Deployment Loop Resistance High
D09R200001
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is turned ªONº, the SDM will
perform tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within
itself. Upon passing these tests ªignition 1º, and
deployment loop voltages are measured to ensure they
are within their respective normal voltage ranges. The
SDM then proceeds with the ªResistance Measurement
Testº. ªPassenger Bag Lowº terminal ª16º is grounded
through a resister and the passenger current source
connected to ªPassenger Bag Highº terminal ª15º allows a
known amount of current to flow. By monitoring the
voltage difference between ªPassenger Bag Highº and
ªPassenger Bag Lowº the SDM calculates the combined
resistance of the passenger air bag assembly, harness
wiring CKTs IB07±YEL/GRN and IB08±YEL/RED
connector terminal contact.
DTC Will Set When:
The combined resistance of the passenger air bag
assembly, harness wiring CKTs IB07±YEL/GRN and
IB08±YEL/RED, and connector terminal contact is above
a specified value. This test is run once each ignition cycle
during the ªResistance Measurement Testº when:
1. No ªhigher priority faultsº are detected during
ªTurn±ON.º
2. ªIgnition 1º voltage is in the specified value.
Action Taken:
SDM turns ªONº the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp and sets a
