Passenger Resistance

The scan tool displays 0-6.3 ohms. The SDM performs the resistance measurement test once each ignition cycle and verifies the Ignition Positive Voltage and 23 VLR voltages are within the normal ranges. Then the SDM sources a constant current to the passenger deployment loop. The SDM then measures the voltage drop across the deployment loop and converts the measured voltage value to a passenger deployment loop resistance value.
