Positive Lead | Measurement / Action | Negative Lead |
|---|---|---|
C3043-6 | Ground |
Is any voltage present?
Yes | REPAIR the circuit. Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 5 for schematic and connector information. GO to A13 |
|---|---|
No | GO to A6 |
A6 CHECK THE BELT TENSION SENSOR (BTS) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
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:

C3238-3 | Ground |
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes | GO to A10 |
|---|---|
No | REPAIR the circuit. Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 5 for schematic and connector information. GO to A13 |
A7 CHECK THE BELT TENSION SENSOR (BTS)
NOTE: This pinpoint test step will attempt to change the fault reported by the OCSM by inducing a different fault condition. If the fault reported changes, this indicates the OCSM 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 Side Airbag (Inline) C219. Disconnect Passenger Safety Belt Buckle C3238. Connect a fused jumper wire:

|---|---|---|
C3238-1 | C3238-3 |
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 OCSM self-test. DIAGNOSTIC TIP: When viewing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with the Belt Tension Sensor (BTS) circuits shorted together, a short to ground fault is normally retrieved. The Belt Tension Sensor (BTS) shares a connector with the passenger safety belt buckle switch, and a passenger safety belt buckle switch circuit fault will also be present in the RCM.
Did the on-demand DTC change from B0061:13 to B0061:11?
Yes | INSTALL a new front passenger safety belt buckle. REFER to: Front Seatbelt Buckle (501-20A Seatbelt Systems, Removal and Installation). GO to A13 |
