B1034

Circuit Description
When you first turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within itself. Upon passing these tests IGNITION, 23 VLR and the deployment loop voltages are measured to make sure they are within their respective normal voltage ranges. The SDM monitors the voltages at Driver Belt Low terminal 9 and Passenger Belt Low terminal 15 to detect shorts to B+ in the seat belt pretensioner deployment loop circuits.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
^ The voltage at Driver Belt Low terminal 9 is less than 3.5 volts.
^ The voltage at Passenger Belt Low terminal 15 is more than 4.5 volts for 500 milliseconds.

The CONTINUOUS MONITORING test checks for this DTC. This test occurs when IGNITION is within the normal operating voltage range.
^ POWER-ON When the malfunction is detected in this test, the RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT test will not be performed.
^ CONTINUOUS MONITORING

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The SDM sets a DTC B1034.
^ The SDM turns ON the AIR BAG warning lamp.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ Current DTC
The voltage at Passenger Belt Low terminal 15 is less than 3.5 volts for 500 milliseconds.
^ History DTC
- You issue a scan tool CLEAR CODES command.
- Once 250 malfunction free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids
A short to B+ in the passenger seat belt pretensioner deployment loop circuit can cause an intermittent condition. Inspect circuit 2116 and circuit 2117 carefully for cutting or chafing. Wiring pigtail damage requires replacement of the passenger seat belt pretensioner. The diagnostic table directs the technician to note the entry value of RH PRETENS. SENSELO. Comparing the value of RH PRETENS. SENSELO can be helpful in determining if an intermittent condition exists.

When measurements are requested in this table, use J39200 Digital Multimeter with the correct terminal adapter from J 35616-A Connector Test Adapter Kit. When a check for proper connection is requested, refer to Intermittents and Poor Connections. When a wire, connector or terminal repair is requested, use J 38125-B Terminal Repair Kit and refer to Wiring Repair. Intermittents and Poor Connections

Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
3. This step isolates the malfunction to one side of the passenger seat belt pretensioner yellow 2-way connector.
5. This step checks to see if there is a short to B+ in circuit 2116.
7. This step checks to see if there is a short to B+ in circuit 2117 or if there is a malfunctioning SDM.
