Test H: LFC 42/DTC B2296 - Restraint System - Impact Sensor Fault

PINPOINT TEST H: LFC 42/DTC B2296 - RESTRAINT SYSTEM - IMPACT SENSOR FAULT

Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) monitors all of the impact sensor circuits for faults. If the RCM detects a low resistance, open circuit, a short to ground or a short to voltage on any of the impact sensor circuits, it will store DTC B2296 in memory and send a message to the instrument cluster (IC) module to flash LFC 42 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag warning indicator.







This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Impact sensor
- Incorrect sensor mounting
- RCM
