Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module Programming and Setup
The air bag indicator light may remain ON after the body control module (BCM), or inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) is replaced, and during the programming procedure for the BCM 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.
- Ignition ON, program the SDM. Refer to Service Programming System (SPS) .
- In the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module, Configuration / Reset Functions menu, select Setup SDM Part Number in BCM. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions.
- In the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module, Configuration / Reset Functions menu, select Configure New Module. Follow the scan tool on screen instructions. If during this procedure a fault is detected, the SDM will not allow this procedure to complete. Repair any existing DTCs, then use the scan tool to command the Configuration / Reset Function again.
- 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 .
GMNA Regions: When SPS failure message E4489 occurs during programming or calibration, do not call TCSC immediately. Record at which point the failure occurred before it displayed the E4489 message. When this occurs, proceed to GDS2. Download the appropriate vehicle configuration and select the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module. Under Identification Information, look at parameters: Software Module 1 Identifier and Software Module 2 Identifier. If either of these are populated with a value of 1 or more, replace the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module. Record these parameter values on the back of the job card.
Non GMNA Regions: When SPS displays message indicating that programming may fail and the programming event fails at 0%, replace the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module. Verify no other DTC's or issues exist with the module prior to replacement. Record all DTCs and relevant information on the back of the job card.
