DTC B1620 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL FAULT
(REPLACE SRSCM)

DTC DESCRIPTION

The Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) runs diagnostics to monitor the condition of its
internal circuits and all external components in the restraint system. If a fault is detected in the electronic
accelerometer or in the microprocessor, the SRSCM will inhibit deployment to minimize the risk of inadvertent
deployments.

Once an internal fault is qualified, the internal fault is latched and warning lamp will be turned on. If an internal
fault is qualified, the SRSCM must be replaced. The Hi-Scan tool can't clear an internal fault. All internal faults
are DTC B1620.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

If the above mentioned DTC is confirmed it can't be cleared by Hi-Scan tool, the SRSCM should be replaced.

DTC DESCRIPTION

When a deployment of any restraint system for seat belt pretensioner and frontal and side air bags occurs, or
when a rear crash is detected, the crash output is activated. The purpose of this output is to signal the IPM
(Instrument Panel Module) in the vehicle to unlock the vehicle doors. If a crash output is in progress, a second
crash output signal will not be sent unless the first one is completed. The SRSCM doesn't perform diagnostics
on the crash output function. After a frontal or side crash event is sensed and algorithm makes firing decision,
above mentioned crash record is stored after squib deployment.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

If the above mentioned DTC is confirmed it can't be cleared by Hi-Scan tool except for the B1657 and the
SRSCM should be replaced. However, for the DTC B1657, Belt pretensioner only deployment, it can be erased
for 5 times and the SRSCM can be reusable. If the deployment of Belt pretensioner reaches to 6 times, the
SRSCM will set DTC B1658 and the SRSCM should be replaced accordingly.
