Lamp Fault Codes (LFCs)
The lamp fault code (LFC) indicates the specific fault associated with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2435.
Normal Operation
As part of the SRS, the safety belt buckles are equipped with Hall-effect switches. The safety belt switches indicate to the restraints control module (RCM) whether the safety belts are connected or disconnected.
The RCM checks the driver safety belt buckle switch circuits for faults. If the RCM detects a current out of range fault, it will store DTC B2435 in memory, flash LFC 7-5 on the air bag indicator and the secondary air bag warning chime will be activated.
Possible Causes
A driver safety belt buckle switch current out of range fault can be caused by:
- a faulty driver safety belt buckle.
- a faulted RCM.
