Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module Programming and Setup

NOTE:

The air bag indicator light may remain ON after the instrument panel module (IPM), or inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) is replaced, and during the programming and setup procedure for the IPM until after the procedure is completed. When installing a new SDM, there may be several DTCs set prior to programming. Once programmed, these DTCs should be in history and can be cleared.

  1. Ignition ON.
  2. In the SDM Module Setup menu, select Setup SDM Part Number in IPM. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions.
  3. In the SDM Module Setup menu, select Setup New SDM. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions.
  4. Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON. Verify no DTCs are set. If any DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
