DERM Circuit Detail:






DESCRIPTION:

When the Ignition Switch is first turned "ON" system voltage is applied through fuse #15 to "SIR Indicator High" (B9) and to the "INFLATABLE RESTRAINT" Indicator Lamp which is connected to "SIR Indicator Low" (A1). Fuse #12 also applies system voltage to the "IGNITION 1" inputs (A3 and B3). The DERM responds by blinking the "INFLATABLE RESTRAINT" indicator 7 to 9 times.

When the engine is being cranked system voltage is applied to the DERM at the "CRANK" input. The DERM grounds the lamp circuit until system voltage is removed from the "CRANK" input. This results in a steady "INFLATABLE RESTRAINT" indicator during, cranking.

After cranking the DERM will again blink the "INFLATABLE RESTRAINT" indicator 7 to 9 times if the Ignition Switch is "ON".

N0TES ON FAULT TREE:

1. Checks for short to system voltage (hot with ignition switch "ON") .

2. Determines if open circuit is internal to DERM.

3. Determines if open circuit is internal to IP Cluster or if open is in wiring harness.

4. Determines if short to system voltage (hot with ignition switch "ON") is internal to DERM.
