PINPOINT TEST 13: DTC B2691 - SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH CIRCUIT FAULT, FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE

Normal Operation

The restraints control module (RCM) checks the safety belt buckle switch circuits for faults. If the RCM detects an open circuit or short to voltage fault, it will store DTC B2691 in memory and send a message to the instrument cluster module to illuminate the air bag warning indicator. If the RCM detects an open or short to battery on the driver safety belt buckle switch circuit, it sets DTC B2691 Seat Belt Buckle Switch Circuit Fault, Front Driver's Side.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Driver safety belt buckle switch
- RCM

WARNING:Remove restraint system diagnostic tools from the vehicle prior to road testing. If tools are not removed, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) device may not deploy in a crash. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury or death in a crash and possibly violate vehicle safety standards.

WARNING:Never probe the electrical connectors on safety belt buckle/retractor pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the safety belt pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors, which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.

CAUTION:Use the correct probe adapter(s) when taking measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE:The supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
NOTE:Supplemental restraint system (SRS) components should only be disconnected or reconnected when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS.
NOTE:Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough Inspection and Verification before proceeding with the Pinpoint Test.
