WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Chevrolet Spark. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P14 Passenger Air Bag Disable Indicator. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
- Test for less than 20 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 20 Ω or greater
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- If less than 20 Ω
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 5 and ground, ignition ON.
- Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Passenger Seat Belt Reminder On and Off with a scan tool.
- If the test lamp is always ON
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module. Ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
- If 1V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1V, replace the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
- If the test lamp is always OFF
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
- If test lamp turns on and off while changing between the commanded states
- Test or replace the P14 Passenger Air Bag Disable Indicator.
