Circuit Description
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will perform turn-on test to diagnose critical malfunctions within SDM itself.
Upon passing these tests, ignition and deployment loop voltages are measured to ensure that they are within their normal voltage ranges. The SDM monitors the voltages at the driver low and the passenger low to detect shorts to ground or voltage in the deployment loops.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B1415 RF Side Impact Sensor Incorrect Component Installed
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The sensor for communication between the SDM and the passenger side impact sensor is not identified.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The SDM commands the air bag indicator ON.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool Clear DTCs function is used.
