Pinpoint Test M: The Fire Suppression System Indicator Is Always On
Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 60, Instrument Cluster for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number
Normal Operation
If the Fire Suppression System Module (FSSM) detects a concern with any of the fire suppression system components, the fire suppression indicator illuminates and a DTC is logged.
The FSSM is hardwired to the Instrument Cluster (IC) through circuit 2318 (LG/RD), and is grounded through circuit 1203 (LG/RD). If a fault occurs in the fire suppression system, DTCs are set and the FSSM removes the ground circuit 2318 (LG/RD), sending the voltage high to the IC, illuminating the fire suppression system indicator.
- DTC B1921 (Air Bag Diagnostic Monitor Ground Circuit Open) - a continuous and on-demand DTC that sets if the FSSM detects an open or high resistance on the ground circuit 1203 (BK/LB).
- DTC B29B3 (Fire Suppression Indicator Lamp Circuit Failure) - a continuous and on-demand DTC that sets if the FSSM detects an open on the fire suppression indicator lamp circuit 2318 (LG/RD).
- DTC B29B4 (Fire Suppression Indicator Lamp Circuit Short to Battery) - sets if the FSSM detects a short to voltage on the fire suppression indicator lamp circuit 2318 (LG/RD) during prove-out at key-on, or when the fire suppression indicator lamp is activated.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- FSSM
- IC

M3 CARRY OUT THE IC INDICATOR LAMP CONTROL ACTIVE COMMAND USING THE SCAN TOOL
- Ignition ON.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IC DataLogger .
- Select the IC all lamps (ALL_LAMP) active command on and off. Observe the fire suppression system indicator.
- Does the fire suppression system indicator illuminate when selected on, and turn off when selected off?
Yes
If equipped with the fire suppression system, GO to M5.
If not equipped with the fire suppression system, GO to M4.
No
GO to M8.
-------------------------------------------------
