Pinpoint Test Ah : DTC B19A1

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Lincoln Navigator and 2017 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: When taking measurements at Front Seat Climate Control Module (SCME) harness connectors, do not insert the electrical probes into the female connector pins. Inserting the probes into connector pins can cause intermittent or open electrical connections after reassembly resulting in Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and system failure. Touching the tip of these connector pins is recommended instead.
NOTE: The airbag warning indicator illuminates when the correct RCM fuse is removed and the ignition is ON.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.

  1. AH1 CHECK THE CUSHION TED BLOWER SPEED CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Passenger Seat Side Airbag C3052.
    • Disconnect: Front Seat Climate Control Module (SCME) C3265C.
    • WARNING: Make sure no one is in the vehicle and there is nothing blocking or placed in front of any airbag when the battery is connected. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury in the event of an accidental deployment.

      Connect the battery ground cable. Refer to Battery, Mounting and Cables .

    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between C3265C-3 , circuit RHS08 (VT/WH), harness side and ground.
