B1C3A

B1C3A-1ST ROW DRIVER RETRACTOR PRETENSIONER CIRCUIT OPEN







- When Monitored:
With the ignition on, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) monitors the resistance of the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner circuits.

- Set Condition:
The ORC has detected an open or high resistance on the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner circuits.





1. VERIFY ACTIVE DTC

NOTE: Make sure the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: The scan tool, SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A and DVOM are required to perform the following test.

1. Select Active or Stored DTC.

Is the DTC active or stored?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM INTERMITTENT TEST. Airbag System Intermittent Condition Test.

2. CHECK FOR DRIVER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER CIRCUIT OPEN





WARNING: Turn the ignition off disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

1. Disconnect the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

2. Connect the SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A and the SRS Load Tool Jumper 8443-4 to the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.

WARNING: Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

3. With the scan tool, read the active ORC DTCs.

Does the scan tool display: B1C3A-1ST ROW DRIVER RETRACTOR PRETENSIONER CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Replace the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner.
- Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Airbag System Verification Test.

3. CHECK (R505) DRIVER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER LINE 1 CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN





WARNING: Turn the ignition off disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

1. Disconnect the SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A and Jumper from the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.
2. Disconnect the ORC connectors.

NOTE: Check the connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

3. Connect the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-25 to the ORC connectors.
4. Measure the resistance of the (R505) Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 1 circuit between the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector cavity A and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-25 cavity C2-16.

Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Repair the (R505) Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 1 circuit for and open.
- Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Airbag System Verification Test.

4. CHECK (R503) DRIVER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER LINE 2 CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN




1. Measure the resistance of the (R503) Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 1 circuit between the Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector cavity B and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-25 cavity C2-15.

Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

Yes

- WARNING: If the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is dropped at any time, it must be replaced. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

- Replace the ORC.
- Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Airbag System Verification Test.

No

- Repair the (R503) Driver Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 1 circuit for and open.
- Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Airbag System Verification Test.
