Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information






Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information SRS-00E8

Condition




The supplemental restraint system module (SRS) checks the signal from the driver's seat belt (inertia) reel sensor.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the control module registers a configuration fault in the signal cable for longer than 2.5 seconds.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can only be diagnosed when the ignition is switched on (12 V). In other words, the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can only be diagnosed when the ignition is switched from position 0 to positions I, II or III.

Hint: The seat belt (inertia) reel sensor is installed in the same unit as the seat belt tensioner. To replace the seat belt (inertia) reel sensor, replace the seat belt tensioner.

Substitute value
- None.

Possible source
- If the supplemental restraint system module (SRS) identifies that a driver's seat belt (inertia) reel sensor is installed, despite the control module being programmed that a driver's seat belt (inertia) reel sensor is not installed

Fault symptom[s]
