Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) checks the driver safety belt buckle switch circuits for faults. If the RCM detects a current out of range fault, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2435 in memory and flash lamp fault code (LFC) 53 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.

Possible Causes
A driver safety belt buckle switch current out of range fault can be caused by:
- damaged wiring, terminals or connectors.
- a faulty driver safety belt buckle and pretensioner assembly.
- RCM is faulted.
