Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)

B1BC7-DEPLOYMENT DATA RECORD FULL

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

Theory of Operation

When powered, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) performs an internal self test. The repair of this fault condition does not involve any external circuitry and centers on verifying the integrity of the module's internal memory.

- When Monitored:
The ORC checks its internal memory for the number of recorded deployment events once at every power up, during the initialization process.

- Set Condition:
This DTC sets when the ORC detects that three recorded deploy events have been reached. Once set, this DTC is latched indefinitely.





Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Restraints System Pre-Diagnostic Procedure.
REPLACE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC)

NOTE: When this DTC is set, the module self test has discovered an internal fault that cannot be repaired and the module must be replaced regardless of DTC status.

When this code is set, view repair.

Repair

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

- 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.

- Replace the ORC. Occupant Restraint Controller - Removal.
