Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Isuzu i-370, 2008 Isuzu i-290, 2008 GMC Canyon, and 2008 Chevrolet Colorado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When the ignition is turned ON, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within itself. When the SDM has completed the power-up mode, the SDM will establish communication with the passenger presence system (PPS). The PPS will respond by commanding both the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicators ON for 5 seconds. The SDM will transmit a request message to the PPS to receive the PPS verification ID. The PPS will transmit the verification ID to the SDM and the SDM will compare the ID received to data stored in memory. If the data stored in memory does not match the information transmitted by the PPS, the SDM will set DTC B0098 and command the AIR BAG indicator ON. The PPS will set DTC 064 and request the SDM to disable the instrument panel (I/P) module deployment loop.
