Diagnostic Trouble Code Description: 

Driver Deployment Loop Short to Ground Current

Possible Sensor Faults
SDM - Sensing and Diagnostics Module (Airbag Black Box)

Possible Related Diagnostic Trouble Codes
DTC0017 or 0018

Circuit / System Description
The steering wheel module deployment loop consists of an inflatable restraint steering wheel module, an inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil, the steering wheel module high and steering wheel module low circuits. A shorting bar is used in the inflatable restraint steering wheel module and the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil connectors, which will short together the steering wheel module high and steering wheel module low circuits when the connector is disconnected, will help to prevent unwanted deployment of the inflator module during servicing. During a frontal crash of sufficient force, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will allow current to flow through the deployment loop in order to deploy the inflatable restraint steering wheel module. The SDM performs continuous diagnostic tests on the deployment loops to check for proper circuit continuity, and for shorts to ground or voltage. If a malfunction is detected, a DTC will be stored.
