A8 CHECK THE PASSENGER AIRBAG STAGE 1 DEPLOYMENT CONTROL DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE) FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (OPEN INDICATED)
NOTE: This pinpoint test step attempts to change the fault reported by the RCM by inducing a different fault condition. If the reported fault changes, this indicates the RCM is functioning correctly and is not the source of the fault. Connect RCM C310A and C310B. Connect a fused jumper wire:

C256-1 | C256-2 |
Repower the SRS. Do not prove out the SRS at this time. REFER to: Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Repowering (501-20B Supplemental Restraint System, General Procedures). Ignition ON. Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform RCM self-test. DIAGNOSTIC TIP: When viewing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with the passenger airbag stage 1 circuits shorted together, a low resistance fault is normally retrieved on stage 1. Stage 2 and the passenger airbag canister vent both show an open circuit fault due to the passenger airbag being disconnected.
Did the on-demand DTC change from B0010:13 to B0010:1A?
Yes | REMOVE the fused jumper wire and GO to A12 |
|---|---|
No | REMOVE the fused jumper wire and GO to A13 |
A9 CHECK THE PASSENGER FRONTAL STAGE 1 DEPLOYMENT CONTROL DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE) FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (SHORT TO GROUND INDICATED)
NOTE: This pinpoint test step attempts to change the fault reported by the RCM by inducing a different fault condition. If the reported fault changes, this indicates the RCM is functioning correctly and is not the source of the fault. Ignition OFF. Depower the SRS. REFER to: Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering (501-20B Supplemental Restraint System, General Procedures). Disconnect Passenger Airbag C256. Remove the glove compartment. REFER to: Glove Compartment (501-12 Instrument Panel and Console, Removal and Installation). Repower the SRS. Do not prove out the SRS at this time. REFER to: Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Repowering (501-20B Supplemental Restraint System, General Procedures). Ignition ON. Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform RCM self-test. DIAGNOSTIC TIP: When viewing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with the passenger airbag disconnected, open circuit faults are normally retrieved on passenger airbag stages 1 and 2, and for the passenger airbag canister vent.
Did the on-demand DTC change from B0010:11 to B0010:13?
Yes | GO to A12 |
|---|---|
No | GO to A10 |
A10 CHECK THE PASSENGER AIRBAG STAGE 1 CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
Ignition OFF. Depower the SRS. REFER to: Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering (501-20B Supplemental Restraint System, General Procedures). Disconnect RCM C310A and C310B. Measure:

C256-2 | Ground |
Are the resistances greater than 10,000 ohms?
