Diagnostic Test

  1. Remove any special tools or jumper wires and reconnect all previously disconnected components - except the battery.
    WARNING:

    Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

  2. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector - use the most current software available.
  3. With the scan tool, erase the stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) in all airbag system modules.
  4. Turn the ignition off and wait 15 seconds, then turn the ignition on.
  5. Note: If equipped with an airbag on/off switch, read the DTC in all switch positions.
  6. Exercise the restraints system to duplicate the appropriate monitor conditions for any DTC that were set
  7. Wait one minute and read Occupant Classification Module (OCM) and ORC active codes. If there are none present, read the stored codes.
  8. If the scan tool shows any OCM and ORC active or stored codes, return to the DTC INDEX and follow the path specified for that trouble code. If no active or stored codes are present, the repair is complete.

    Are any DTC present or is the original condition still present?

    Yes 

    No 

    • Repair is complete.
