A malfunctioning I/P module

z

A malfunctioning SDM

Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors
may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction. If an
intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring
Systems.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

4: Tests to see if the malfunction is caused by the I/P module.

6: Tests to see what DTCs are present. If DTC B0016 is present, test the I/P module for a short between
high and low circuits. If DTC B0017 is present, test the I/P module high and low circuits for an open and
for high resistance. If DTC B0018 is present, test the I/P module high and low circuits for a short to
ground and for a short to voltage.

1. Turn OFF the ignition.

2. Disconnect I/P module in-line connector. Refer to Inflatable

Restraint Instrument Panel Module Replacement .

3. Inspect the component and harness sides of the in-line connector for

the I/P module for damage or corrosion that may cause the
malfunction. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and
Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

DTC B0022, B0024, OR B0026

Circuit Description

The driver deployment loop consists of a inflatable restraint steering wheel module, the inflatable restraint
steering wheel module coil, steering wheel module high and steering wheel module low circuits. There is a
shorting bar used within the steering wheel module coil connector which will short together both steering wheel
module high circuit and steering wheel module low circuit when the connector is disconnected, this will help to
prevent unwanted deployment of the inflator module during servicing. During a frontal crash of sufficient force
the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will allow current to flow through the deployment
loop in order to deploy the steering wheel module. The SDM performs continuous diagnostic tests on the
deployment loops to check for proper circuit continuity and for shorts to ground or voltage. If a malfunction is
detected, a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) will be stored in memory.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition 1 voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

z

DTC B0022 will set when the steering wheel module deployment loop resistance is less than 1.3 ohms for
500 milliseconds.

z

DTC B0024 will set when one of the following conditions occur:

{

Steering wheel module high and/or low circuits is short to ground or short to voltage for 500
milliseconds.

{

Steering wheel module high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and steering wheel module deployment
loop resistance is less than 6 ohms for 500 milliseconds.

z

DTC B0026 will set when one of the following conditions occurs:

{

Steering wheel module high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and the steering wheel module deployment
loop is more than 6 ohms for 500 milliseconds.

{

Steering wheel module deployment loop resistance is more than 4.8 ohms for 500 milliseconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON via Class 2 serial data.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors
may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction. If an
intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring
Systems.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

5: Tests to see if the malfunction is caused by the steering wheel module or by the steering wheel module
coil.

7: Tests to see what DTCs are present. If DTC B0022 is present, test the steering wheel module for a
short between high and low circuits. If DTC B0024 is present, test the steering wheel module high and
low circuits for an open and for high resistance. If DTC B0026 is present, test the steering wheel module
high and low circuits for an open and for high resistance.
