Diagnostic Trouble Code Description:
Front Passenger Side Impact Sensor Circuit
Possible Sensor Faults
SDM - Sensing and Diagnostics Module (Airbag Black Box)
Possible Related Diagnostic Trouble Codes
DTC B0085 or B0086
Circuit / System Description
The inflatable restraint side impact sensor utilizes a unidirectional 2-wire circuit. The side impact sensor modulates current on the interface to send ID, state of health, and deployment commands to the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM). The SDM serves as a power source and a ground for the side impact sensor. When the ignition is turned ON and input power from the SDM is first detected, the side impact sensor responds by performing internal diagnostics and sending an ID to the SDM. The SDM considers the ID to be valid if the response time is less than 5?seconds. The side impact sensor continually communicates status messages to the SDM, which determines if a fault is present in the side impact sensor circuit. When a fault is detected, the SDM may reset the side impact sensor up to 2 times by removing and reapplying power to it. If the fault is still present, the SDM will set a DTC.
