Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra. Manual — part 661

B0079 08

The SDM detects the SPS signal circuit is invalid for 500 milliseconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The SDM sets a DTC B0079.

The SDM defaults the SPS to seat rearward threshold.

The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The condition for setting the DTC no longer exists.

A history DTC will clear once 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the SPS.

2. Disconnect the harness connector at the SDM.

3. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the SPS signal circuit terminal 29 and ground.

If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.

4. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the SPS low reference circuit terminal 28 and

ground.

If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.

5. Test for infinite resistance between the SPS signal circuit terminal 29 and ground.

If less than infinite resistance, test the circuit for a short to ground.

6. Test for less than 1 ohm of the SPS signal circuit between the SDM harness connector

terminal 29 and the SPS harness connector terminal 2.

If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.

7. Test for less than 1 ohm of the SPS low reference circuit between the SDM harness

connector terminal 28 and the SPS harness connector terminal 1.

If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.

8. If all circuits test normal, replace the SPS.

9. Reconnect all SIR components. Ignition ON, with a scan tool clear and recheck for DTCs.

If the front end sensor DTC returns and is current, replace the SDM. After
replacement, refer to Repair Verification.

Repair Verification

IMPORTANT: When removing connectors, inspect for damage or corrosion.

Damage or corrosion in the following requires repair or
replacement of the affected component/connector:

The Seat Position Sensor (SPS)

The Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) module

The seat position sensor wiring harness connector

The SDM wiring harness connector

Ignition ON, use the scan tool to clear the DTCs then recheck for DTCs. Verify no DTCs are set.

If DTC B0079 was current, replace the SDM.

DTC B0081

Diagnostic Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using the diagnostic procedure.

Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.

Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Passenger Presence System Incorrect Component Installed

DTC B0081 71

Passenger Presence System Invalid Serial Data Received

Circuit/System Description

When the ignition is turned ON, the passenger presence system (PPS) and the inflatable restraint
sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions. When the
SDM has completed the power-up mode, the SDM will establish communication with the PPS.
The SDM will also request the instrument panel cluster (IPC) to command both of the
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicators ON for 5 seconds. If the SDM determines the
correct PPS is installed and functioning normally, the SDM will turn the passenger side airbags
ON or OFF based on messages from the PPS. The SDM will also send a message to the IPC to
turn the appropriate PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicator on.

Conditions for Running the DTC

2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

2008 RESTRAINTS Supplemental Inflatable Restraints - Cab & Chassis Sierra, Cab & Chassis Silverado, Sierra &

Silverado

Ignition voltage is between 9-16 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

All of the following conditions must exist for 5 seconds:

B0081 0F

The SDM has received a fault present message from the PPS.

The PPS is in assembly plant mode and the SDM is in production mode.

B0081 39

The SDM has received a critical malfunction message from the PPS.

B0081 3A

The SDM has received a message from the PPS which indicates a vehicle and PPS mismatch.

B0081 71

The SDM has received invalid or no serial data from the PPS.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON, and the passenger air bag indicator to
display OFF.

The I/P module deployment loop will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The condition for setting the DTC no longer exists and there is no activity on the low speed
serial data circuits.

A history DTC will clear once 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

If either the SDM or PPS were replaced, verify that the correct part numbers were used for the
vehicle application.
