Diagnostic Test

  1. CHECK FOR ACTIVE INTERNAL FAULTS, IGNITION FAULTS, AND BATTERY FAULTS IN THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC) 
    1. With the scan tool, read Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display any active DTCs relating to internal faults, ignition faults, or battery faults?

      Yes 

      • Diagnose and repair the DTCs.

      No 

      • Go to step  2
  2. VERIFY THAT DTC B1B95-PASSENGER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT OPEN IS ACTIVE 

    Does the scan tool display active: B1B95-PASSENGER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT OPEN?

    Yes 

    • Go to step  3

    No 

    • Go to step  7
  3. INSPECT PASSENGER SEAT HARNESS WIRES AND CONNECTORS 
    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. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the Passenger Seat Harness wiring and connectors. Look for chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals.

      Are any of these conditions present?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  4. VERIFY THAT PASSENGER SEAT HARNESS IS ROUTED CORRECTLY 
    1. Verify that the Passenger Seat Harness is routed correctly.

      Is the Passenger Seat Harness routed correctly?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  5

      No 

  5. CHECK (R262) PASSENGER SEAT POSITION SENSOR DATA CIRCUIT AND (R264) PASSENGER SEAT POSITION SENSOR VOLTAGE CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    1. Disconnect the ORC connectors.
    2. Connect the 8443-25 ORC adaptor to the ORC C2 connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the (R262) Passenger Seat Position Sensor Data circuit between the ORC-C2 connector cavity C2-32 and the Passenger Seat Track Position Sensor connector cavity 1.
    4. Measure the resistance of the (R264) Passenger Seat Position Sensor Voltage circuit between the ORC-C2 connector cavity C2-31 and the Passenger Seat Track Position Sensor connector cavity 2.

      Is the resistance of either circuit above 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  6
  6. CHECK OPERATION OF THE PASSENGER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR 
    1. Replace the Passenger Seat Track Position Sensor.
    2. Reconnect the vehicle body harness to the Seat Track Position Sensor.
    3. 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.
    4. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector - use the most current software available.
    5. Use the scan tool and erase the stored codes in all airbag system modules.
    6. Turn the Ignition Off, and wait 15 seconds before turning the Ignition On.
    7. Wait one minute, and read active codes and if there are none present read the stored codes.

      Did the active Passenger Seat Track Position Sensor DTC return?

      Yes 

        WARNING: If the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is dropped at any time, it must be replaced. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
      • 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.
      • Replace the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC ) in accordance with the service information.
      • Perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/CONTROLLER, Occupant Restraint (ORC) - Standard Procedure .

      No 

  7. TEST FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    1. With the scan tool, record and erase all DTCs from the ORC.
    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.
      WARNING: Maintain a safe distance from all airbags while performing the following steps. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
    8. Wiggle the wiring harness and connectors of the related airbag circuit or component.
    9. If only stored codes return continue the test until the problem area has been isolated.
    10. In the previous steps you have attempted to recreate the conditions responsible for setting active DTC in question.

      Are any ACTIVE DTCs present?

      Yes 

      No 

      • No problem found at this time. Erase all codes before returning vehicle to customer.
