Seat Belt Indicator Malfunction

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.
  1. 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.
  2. Test for less than 20 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 20 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. 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 
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 5 and ground, ignition ON.
  4. 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 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module. Ignition ON.
    2. 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 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    3. 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 
  5. Test or replace the P14 Passenger Air Bag Disable Indicator.
