DTC B0031 (Flash Code 31) Passenger Pretensioner Squib Circuit Low
Resistance



RTW 79ALF000301

Circuit Description
W hen the ignition switch is turned “ON”, the SRS
control unit will perform tests to diagnose critical
malfunctions within itself. Upon passing these tests
“Ignition 1”, and deployment loop voltages are
measured to ensure they are within their respective
normal voltage ranges. The SRS control unit then
proceeds with the “Resistance Measurement Test”.
“Passenger Pretensioner Low” terminal “10” is
grounded through a resistor and the passenger current
source connected to “Passenger Pretensioner High”
terminal “11” allows a known amount of current to flow.

By monitoring the voltage difference between
“Passenger Pretensioner High” and “Passenger
Pretensioner Low”, the SRS control unit calculates the
combined resistance of the passenger air bag
assembly, harness wiring circuits “Passenge
r
Pretensioner High” and “Passenger Pretensioner Low”
connector terminal contact.

r
Pretensioner Low” terminal “7” and “Passenger
Pretensioner Low” terminal “10” to detect short to
ground/+B in the pretensioner assembly circuits.

DTC Will Set When
“Ignition 1" is in the normal operating voltage range.
The voltage at “Passenger Pretensioner Low " is belo
w

DTC B0041 (Flash Code 41) Driver Pretensioner Squib Circuit Low Resistance



RTW 79ALF000301

Circuit Description
W hen the ignition switch is turned “ON”, the SRS
control unit will perform tests to diagnose critical
malfunctions within itself. Upon passing these tests
“Ignition 1”, and deployment loop voltages are
measured to ensure they are within their respective
normal voltage ranges.

The SRS control unit then proceeds with the
“Resistance Measurement Test” “Driver Pretensioner
Low” terminal “7” is grounded through a current sink
and the driver current source connected to “Drive

DTC Will Set When
The combined resistance of the driver pretensioner
assembly, harness wiring circuits “Driver Pretensioner
High” and “Driver Pretensioner Low”, and connector
terminal contact is above a specified value. This test is
run once each ignition cycle during the “Resistance
Measurement Test” when:
1. No “higher priority faults” are detected during “Turn–
ON”
2. “Ignition 1” voltage is in the specified value.

Action Taken
SRS control unit turns “ON” the “AIR BAG” warning
lamp and sets DTC B0041.

DTC Will Clear When
The ignition switch is turned “LOCK”.

DTC Chart Test Description
Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the
diagnostic chart:
2. This test determines whether the malfunction is in
the SRS control unit.
3. This test verifies proper connection of the yello
w
connector at the base of the driver seat.
4. This test checks for proper operation of the shorting
clip in the yellow connector.
5. This test isolate the malfunction to one side of the
SRS coil assembly yellow connector located at the
base of the driver seat.
6. This test determines whether the malfunction is due
to shortening in the wiring.
7. This test determines whether the malfunction is in
the driver pretensionerassembly.

Diagnostic Aids

An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a short
between circuit “Driver Pretensioner High” or “Drive
r
Pretensioner Low” or a malfunctioning shorting clip on
the driver pretensioner assembly which would require
replacement of the component. The test for this
diagnostic trouble code is only run while the “AIR BAG”
warning lamp is performing the bulb check. W hen a
scan tool “Clear Codes” command is issued and the
malfunction is still present, the DTC will not reappea
r
until the next ignition cycle.
