B0092

DTC B0092

Circuit Description

When the ignition is turned ON, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within itself. When the SDM has completed the power-up mode the SDM will establish communication with the passenger presence system (PPS). The PPS will respond by commanding both the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicators ON for 5 seconds. Then, the SDM will transmit a request message to the PPS to receive the PPS verification ID. The PPS will transmit the verification ID to the SDM and the SDM will compare the ID received to data stored in memory. The SDM will set DTC B0092 to notify the driver that the PPS has a current malfunction present or has not established/loss communications with the PPS.

DTC Descriptor

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

DTC B0092 Passenger Presence System Performance

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition 1 voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

* The SDM has loss or never established communications with the PPS.
* The SDM detects that the PPS has set a DTC.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The SDM disables the instrument panel (I/P) module deployment loop.
* The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON via Class 2 serial data.
* The PPS will turn ON the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* You issue a scan tool CLEAR DTCs command.
* A history DTC will clear once 255 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

DTC B0092 is an indication that the SDM has no or loss communication with the PPS or the PPS has internal faults. The SDM will continue to request the verification ID from the PPS for 5 seconds. If the SDM does not receive the verification ID from the PPS within 5 seconds the SDM will set the DTC as current, illuminate the AIR BAG indicator, and disable the I/P module deployment loop.
