Normal Operation
The seat side air bags will deploy upon receiving a flow of current from the restraints control module (RCM).

The restraints control module (RCM) checks all of the seat side air bag circuits for faults. If the RCM detects one of the following faults on any of the seat side air bag circuits, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2295 in memory and flash either lamp fault code (LFC) 22 or 23 depending on the fault (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.

Fault Conditions
The RCM monitors for the following fault conditions:
- low resistance
- high resistance or circuit open
- circuit short to voltage
- circuit short to ground

Possible Causes
A seat side air bag status fault can be caused by:
- wiring, terminals, or connectors.
- a faulty seat side air bag module.
- a faulted RCM.
