Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) checks all of the safety belt load limiting retractors for faults. If the RCM detects one of the following faults on any of the safety belt load limiting retractors circuits, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B1085 in memory and illuminate the air bag indicator.

Fault Conditions
The RCM monitors for the following fault conditions:
- Low resistance
- Circuit open
- Circuit short to voltage
- Circuit short to ground

Possible Causes
A adaptive load limiting retractor status fault can be caused by:
- damaged wiring, terminals or connectors.
- a faulty adaptive load limiting retractor.
- faulty RCM.
