B1B54

B1B54-1ST ROW PASSENGER SEAT BELT SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW







- When Monitored:
When powered, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) sends a test current to the belt switches to verify the integrity of the switch and wiring. The use of the SRS Load Tool Adapter tool in the tests below provides a test point in place of the module.

- Set Condition:
The ORC monitors the status of the seat belt switch circuits at power up and every 60 ms thereafter while the ignition is in on.

This DTC sets when the ORC detects the seat belt switch circuits have become shorted to ground for more than 2.5 seconds. This DTC transitions from active to stored when the module sees a recovery from the shorted to ground condition for greater than five seconds.
