Circuit/System Testing

Important: When removing connectors inspect for damage, corrosion or poor connection. Damage or corrosion to the following requires

repair or replacement of the affected component/connector:

* Driver steering wheel air bag

* SDM module

* Driver steering wheel air bag wiring harness connector

* SDM wiring harness connector

The connector and connector position assurance (CPA) may seat independent of each other. Both the connector and CPA should seat with

an audible and/or tactile click. The CPA isolates the shorting-bars within the connector allowing the deployment circuit to operate

properly.

1. Verify that the driver steering wheel air bag connector and CPA are engaged.

瀚慖f the above condition is not found, make the appropriate repair.

2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the driver steering wheel air bag.

3. With the appropriate load tool adaptor, connect J 38715-A in place of the driver steering wheel air bag.

4. Ignition ON, with a scan tool, verify the appropriate DTC is set as current.

瀚慖f the DTC is not set or is set as history, cycle ignition OFF, disconnect the adapter and J 38715-A, reconnect the harness connector at the

driver steering wheel air bag, and cycle the ignition ON. If the DTC resets after reconnecting the air bag, then replace the driver steering

wheel air bag.

5. Ignition OFF, disconnect J 38715-A and the adaptor.

6. Disconnect the driver steering wheel air bag coil in-line connector.

7. With the appropriate load tool adaptor, connect special tool J 38715-A.

8. Ignition ON, with a scan tool, verify DTC is set as current.

瀚慖f DTC is not set or is set as history, replace the driver steering wheel air bag coil.

9. Ignition OFF, disconnect special tool J 38715-A and the adaptor.

10. Disconnect the harness connector at the SDM.

11. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the high circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 1 terminal A X1

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 2 terminal A X2

瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.

12. Test for less than 1 volt between the low circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 1 terminal B X1

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 2 terminal B X2

瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.

13. Ignition OFF, test for infinite resistance between the high circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 1 terminal A X1

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 2 terminal A X2

瀚慖f less than the specified value, test the circuit for a short to ground.

14. Test for infinite resistance between the low circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 1 terminal B X1

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 2 terminal B X2

瀚慖f less than the specified value, test the circuit for a short to ground.

15. Test for less then 1 ohm between the SDM connector and the air bag connector high circuit terminals listed below.

* Driver steering wheel air bag coil connector Stage 1 terminal A X1 and SDM terminal 4 X1.
