BA2 CHECK THE COMMUNICATION NETWORK

- Ignition ON.

- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Network Test.

- Carry out the network test.

Does the OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module) pass the network test?

Yes
GO to BA3.
No
REFER to Information Bus.

BA3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module) SELF-TEST

- Check for recorded DTCs from the OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module) self-test.

Is DTC U3003:16 or DTC U3003:17 recorded?

Yes
REFER to Restraints and Safety Systems &/or Air Bag Systems.
No
GO to BA4.

BA4 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) SELF-TEST

- Check for recorded DTCs from the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) self-test.

Is DTC U3003:16 or DTC U3003:17 recorded?

Yes
For DTC U3003:16, GO to Pinpoint Test BD. Pinpoint Test BD: DTC U3003:16

For DTC U3003:17, GO to Pinpoint Test BE. Pinpoint Test BE: DTC U3003:17
No
GO to BA5.

BA5 RECHECK THE IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) DTCs

- Clear the DTCs. Repeat the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) self-test.

Is DTC U0154:00 still present?

Yes
GO to BA6.
No
The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to high network traffic or an intermittent fault condition.

- Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.

Is DTC U0154:00 set in the Restraints Control Module (RCM)
module?


Yes
INSTALL a new OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module). CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
No
INSTALL a new IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster). REFER to Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) . TEST the system for normal operation.
