Test E: The Restraint Control Module (RCM) Does Not Respond to the Diagnostic Tool

PINPOINT TEST E: THE RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL

E1-E3:

Normal Operation
The RCM communicates with the diagnostic tool through the international standards organization (ISO) 9141 communication network, circuit 70 (LB/WH). If circuit 70 (LB/WH) becomes open or shorted to ground communications to that module are not possible. Check circuit 70 (LB/WH) between the RCM C310a and the data link connector (DLC) C251. The total resistance value must not be more than 5 ohms. If the resistance is more than 5 ohms, there is an open in circuit 70 (LB/WH), damage to the DLC C251, or damage to the RCM C310a.

Possible Causes
- ISO 9141 circuit 70 (LB/WH) open
- RCM C310a
- RCM
