Air Bag and Safety Belt Pretensioner Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
Pinpoint Tests
Pinpoint Test I: LFC 16/DTC B2290
Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 46, Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number
NOTE: Lamp Fault Code (LFC) 16 is shared between DTC B2290 and DTC B2909.
Normal Operation
The Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system is used to classify the front passenger seat occupant in the event of a deployable impact. Refer to Air Bag and Safety Belt Pretensioner Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Description and Operation.
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) continuously monitors messages from the Occupant Classification System Module (OCSM). If the RCM receives a fault message reported by the OCSM, it will store DTC B2290 in memory and flash LFC 16 on the air bag warning indicator.
The OCS system components (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor, OCSM and seat wiring harness) are calibrated to each other and are serviced as an assembly. The OCS system components are not to be installed separately. If a OCS system component or seat cushion foam pad are needed, a new OCS system service kit (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor, OCSM and seat wiring harness) must be installed as an assembly.
a Fault PIDs that end in OD indicate an on-demand status and are associated with on-demand DTC B2290. Fault PIDs that end in CM indicate continuous memory status and are associated with continuous DTC B2290.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- OCS system component
- RCM
PINPOINT TEST I: LFC 16/DTC B2290
WARNING: Remove restraint system diagnostic tools from the vehicle prior to road testing. If tools are not removed, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) device may not deploy in a crash. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury or death in a crash and possibly violate vehicle safety standards.
WARNING: Never probe the electrical connectors on air bag, Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain modules. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of these modules, which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) from the Flex Probe Kit when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector. Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough inspection and verification before proceeding with the pinpoint test. Inspection and Verification
NOTE: Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components should only be disconnected or reconnected when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
NOTE: To identify between a production OCS system and a OCS system service kit, inspect the OCSM electrical connector. A production OCS system allows the disconnection of the OCSM electrical connector.
A service OCS system service kit has the electrical connector glued to the OCSM, it cannot and should not be disconnected or altered.
NOTE: Mounting and orientation of the OCSM is critical for correct system operation. Failure to correctly position and securely fasten the OCSM in place can set a DTC in the RCM. If the vehicle has been in a collision in which the passenger seat may have been damaged, inspect the OCSM mounting area for deformation. If damaged, a new OCS system service kit must be installed. In addition, make sure the mounting area of the OCS system is restored to the original production configuration (install new as necessary).
