B1B22-RIGHT SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN






For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.

- When Monitored:

With the ignition on, the ORC monitors the resistance of the Right Curtain Squib 1 circuits.

- Set Condition:

When the ORC has detected an open circuit or high resistance in the Right Curtain Squib 1 circuits.






Diagnostic Test

1. DETERMINE ACTIVE OR STORED DTC

NOTE: Ensure the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: The Scan Tool and SRS Airbag Load Tool MRL 8443 are required to perform the following test.

Select Active or Stored DTC.

Is the DTC active or stored?

ORC - ACTIVE DTC

- Go To 2

ORC - STORED DTC

- Go To 5

2. RIGHT SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG OPEN






WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Disconnect the Right Side Curtain Airbag connector(s).

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, do not place an intact uncoupled curtain airbag face down on a hard surface, the airbag will propel into the air if accidentally deployed.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

Connect the 8443 Load Tool and appropriate Jumper to the Right Side Curtain Airbag connector(s).

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition on, then reconnect the battery.

With the scan tool, read the active Occupant Restraints Controller DTC.

Does the scan tool display: RIGHT SIDE CURTAIN SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

-

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

- Replace the Right Side Curtain Airbag.
- Perform *ORC VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) Verification Test

3. (R4) RIGHT CURTAIN SQUIB 1 LINE 1 OR (R2) RIGHT CURTAIN SQUIB 1 LINE 2 CIRCUIT OPEN










WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Disconnect the 8443 Load Tool and Jumper from the Right Side Curtain Airbag harness connector(s).

Disconnect the ORC harness connector(s).

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

Connect the Load Tool 8443-25 ORC Adaptor to the ORC harness connector.

Measure the resistance of the (R4) Right Curtain Squib 1 Line 1 between the Right Side Curtain Airbag harness connector and the 8443 ORC Adaptor.

Measure the resistance of the (R2) Right Curtain Squib 1 Line 2 between the Right Side Curtain Airbag harness connector and the 8443 ORC Adaptor.

Is the resistance below 1.0 ohm on both circuits?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Repair open or high resistance in (R4) Right Curtain Squib 1 Line 1 and/or (R2) Right Curtain Squib 1 Line 2.
- Perform *ORC VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) Verification Test

4. OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER

WARNING: If the Occupant Restraint Controller is dropped at any time, it must be replaced. Failure to take the proper precautions can result in accidental airbag deployment and serious or fatal injury.

If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.

Repair

- Replace the Occupant Restraint Controller.
- Perform *ORC VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) Verification Test

5. STORED ORC DTC

With the scan tool, record and erase all DTC from all Airbag System Modules.

If any ACTIVE codes are present they must be resolved before diagnosing any stored codes.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.

Look for chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals.

The following additional checks may assist you in identifying a possible intermittent problem.

Reconnect any disconnected components and harness connector.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition on, then reconnect the battery.

With the scan tool monitor active codes as you work through the following steps.

Wiggle the wiring harness and connectors of the related airbag circuit or component.

IF only stored codes return continue the test until the problem area has been isolated.

In the previous steps you have attempted to recreate the conditions responsible for setting active DTC in question.

Are any ACTIVE DTC present?

Yes

- Select appropriate symptom from Symptom List.

No

- No problem found at this time. Erase all codes before returning vehicle to customer.
