PINPOINT TEST O: LFC 51/DTC B2435 - DRIVERS SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH RESISTANCE OUT OF RANGE

Normal Operation
As part of the supplemental restraint system (SRS), the driver and passenger safety belt buckles are equipped with Hall-effect switches. The safety belt switches indicate to the restraints control module (RCM) whether the safety belts are buckled or unbuckled.

The RCM checks the driver safety belt buckle switch circuits for faults. If the RCM detects a current out of range fault, it will store DTC B2435 in memory and flash LFC 51 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag warning indicator.

- DTC B2435 Drivers Seat Belt Buckle Switch Resistance Out of Range - If the RCM detects a current out of range between buckled and unbuckled on the driver safety belt buckle switch, it will set this DTC.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Driver safety belt buckle switch
- RCM
