Connect DRB to DLC. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Connect negative battery cable. On DRB display, read active air bag DTCs. If DRB displays DRIVER SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY, go to next step. If DRB does not display DRIVER SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY, replace dual-stage driver-side air bag module.
  2. Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect negative battery cable and wait at least 2 minutes. Access and disconnect clockspring lower connector. See CLOCKSPRING  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Connect SRS load tool and appropriate jumper to harness side of clockspring lower connector. Turn ignition switch to ON position.
