Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Pontiac G5 Pursuit, 2007 Pontiac G5, and 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
  • The seat belt tension retractor sensor is not service separately. The Seat Belt Retractor Pretensioner Replacement - Right Front with the seat belt tension retractor sensor must be serviced as a complete unit.
  • When removing connectors inspect for damage or corrosion. Damage or corrosion in the following requires repair or replacement of the affected component/connector.
    IMPORTANT:
    • The seat belt retractor pretensioner - RF
    • The PPS module
    • The SDM module
    • The seat belt retractor pretensioner - RF wiring harness connector
    • The PPS wiring harness connector
    • The SDM wiring harness connector
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the seat belt tension retractor sensor. Refer to seat belt retractor replacement - right front in Repair Instructions for location of connector.
  2. Disconnect the PPS module connector. Refer to PPS replacement in Repair Instructions for connector location.
  3. Test the seat belt tension retractor sensor signal circuit for a short to ground, a high resistance, or an open. Verify that a short to ground, a high resistance, or an open does not exist.
    • If any of the above conditions are found make the appropriate repair.
  4. Test the seat belt tension retractor sensor 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground, a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open. Verify that a short to ground, a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open does not exist.
    • If any of the above conditions are found make the appropriate repair.
  5. Test the seat belt tension retractor sensor low reference circuit for a short to ground, a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open. Verify that a short to ground, a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open does not exist.
    • If any of the above conditions are found make the appropriate repair
  6. Ignition ON, engine OFF test the seat belt tension retractor sensor circuit with a DMM. Measure the voltage of the seat belt tension retractor sensor circuit harness side and ground. The voltage should read 0.05-4.5 volts.
    • If the voltage is more than 5 volts test the seat belt tension retractor sensor circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests good replace the PPS.
  7. Reconnect all PPS components. Use the scan tool to clear all PPS DTCs. Refer to Passenger Presence System Flash Code Procedures . Rezero the PPS, refer to Passenger Presence System Rezeroing . Verify DTC 023 does not exist.
    • If DTC 023 reset replaced the PPS.
