Faulty Rear Safing Sensor, Front Impact Sensor Or Diagnostic Module; Open Circuit Between Front Impact Sensor & Diagnostic Module

  1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect diagnostic module connectors. Measure resistance between terminals 1L and 1E (Brown/Black and Brown wires) of diagnostic module connector. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, go to step 3).
  2. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, disconnect left front impact sensor connector. Measure resistance across left front impact sensor connector terminals. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, replace left front impact sensor. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, replace wiring harness.
  3. Leave diagnostic module disconnected. Measure resistance between terminals 1H and 2A (Brown/White and Brown/Red wires) of diagnostic module connectors. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, go to step 5).
  4. Disconnect center front impact sensor connector. Measure resistance across center front impact sensor connector terminals. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, replace center front impact sensor. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, replace wiring harness.
  5. Leave diagnostic module disconnected. Measure resistance between terminals 1J and 2C (Brown/Yellow and Brown/Green wires) of diagnostic module connectors. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, go to step 7).
  6. Disconnect right front impact sensor connector. Measure resistance across right front impact sensor connector terminals. If resistance is not 1130-1230 ohms, replace right front impact sensor. If resistance is 1130-1230 ohms, replace wiring harness.
  7. Turn ignition off. Disable air bag system. See COMPLETE DISABLING & ACTIVATING under DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM. Leave diagnostic module disconnected. Check for continuity between terminals 1D and 2H (Green/White and Green/Yellow wires) of diagnostic module connectors. If there is continuity, go to next step. If there is no continuity, replace diagnostic module.
  8. Disconnect rear safing sensor connector. Check for continuity between Red wire and Green/Yellow wire terminals of rear safing sensor connector. If there is continuity, replace rear safing sensor. If there is no continuity, replace wiring harness.
