Theory of Operation


Possible Causes

(R506) PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER LINE 1 CIRCUIT OPEN
(R504) PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER LINE 2 CIRCUIT OPEN
PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER
OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC)

1. DETERMINE ACTIVE OR STORED DTC




NOTE: Make sure the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: The scan tool, SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A , and DVOM are required to perform the following test.
1. With the scan tool, read the active ORC DTC.
2. Select Active or Stored DTC.


Is the DTC active or stored?

ORC - ACTIVE DTC


ORC - STORED DTC


2. CHECK FOR PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER CIRCUIT OPEN



WARNING:

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

1. Disconnect the Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.


NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
2. Connect the Supplemental Restraint System SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A and SRS Load Tool Jumper 8443-10 to the Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.

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.

3. With the scan tool, read the active ORC DTC.


Does the scan tool display B1C49-1ST ROW PASSENGER RETRACTOR PRETENSIONER CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes


No


3. CHECK (R506) PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER DATA CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN



WARNING:

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

1. Disconnect the SRS Load Tool Kit 8443A and Jumper from the Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector.
2. Disconnect the ORC connectors.


NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
3. Connect the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-32-L to the ORC connectors.
4. Measure the resistance of the (R506) Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 1 circuit between the Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector cavity 1 and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-32-L cavity C2-3.


Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

Yes


No


4. CHECK (R504) PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR TENSIONER LINE 2 CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN



1. Measure the resistance of the (R504) Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner Line 2 circuit between the Passenger Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner connector cavity 2 and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor 8443-32-L cavity C2-4.


Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohm?

Yes


No


5. STORED ORC DTC


1. With the scan tool, record and erase all DTC from all Airbag System Modules.
2. If any ACTIVE codes are present they must be resolved before diagnosing any stored codes.

WARNING:

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

3. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
4. Look for chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals.
5. The following additional checks may assist you in identifying a possible intermittent problem.
6. Reconnect any disconnected components and harness connector.

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.

7. With the scan tool monitor active codes as you work through the following steps.
8. Wiggle the wiring harness and connectors of the related airbag circuit or component.
9. If codes are related to the Driver Airbag circuits, rotate the steering wheel from stop to stop.
10. If only stored codes return continue the test until the problem area has been isolated.
11. In the previous steps you have attempted to recreate the conditions responsible for setting active DTC in question.


Are any ACTIVE DTC present?

Yes


No
