NOTE:
- Before troubleshooting any of these DTCs, check the battery/system voltage and battery cable connections. If the voltage is low, repair the charging system or replace the battery before troubleshooting the SRS. If the battery/system voltage is now OK, ask the customer if the battery ever went dead or if the engine was started and run with the battery in a low state of charge. A dead battery may trigger one of these DTCs.
- Before doing this troubleshooting procedure, review SRS Precautions and Procedures and General Troubleshooting Information.

YES - Replace the SRS unit.
