B1BAE - Left Side Satellite Acceleration Sensor 2 Configuration Mismatch

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.

Theory of Operation

When powered, the occupant restraint controller sends a test current to the impact sensors. During this test, the impact sensors discovered are checked for agreement with the pre - programmed vehicle configuration of components assigned to the module. The repair of this fault condition does not involve any external circuitry and centers on confirming the correct module and wiring is installed in the vehicle.

• When Monitored: The ORC checks for the presence of a device once at every power up, during the module initialization process.

• Set Condition: This DTC sets when the ORC detects the presence of a device while the configuration of the module does not reflect a device should be present. Once set, this DTC is latched for the entire power cycle.






Always perform the Pre - Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.

Test Step 1 - Determine Active or Stored DTC

• Ensure the battery is fully charged.

• Turn the ignition ON.

• With the scan tool, read ORC DTCs.

Is the DTC active or stored?

ORC - Active DTC

• Replace the ORC.

• Perform the Restraints System Intermittent Test. Refer to => Non - DTC Based Diagnostics. ORC Restraints System Intermittent Test

• Ensure the part number of the replacement module is the correct part number for the vehicle.


If the occupant restraint controller 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.


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.

ORC - Stored DTC

• Perform the Restraints System Intermittent Test. Refer to => Non - DTC Based Diagnostics. ORC Restraints System Intermittent Test
