Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 4:  This step tests to see if the malfunction is caused by the seat belt pretensioner LF.
  2. 6:  This step tests to see what DTCs are present. If DTC B0064 is present, test the seat belt pretensioner LF for a short between high and low circuits. If DTC B0065 is present, test the seat belt pretensioner LF high and low circuits for an open and for high resistance. If DTC B0066 is present, test the seat belt pretensioner LF high and low circuits for a short to ground and for a short to voltage.
