Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM INTERMITTENT TEST. Refer to RESTRAINTS SYSTEM INTERMITTENT TEST .
- CHECK THE (R130), (R150) LEFT SIDE IMPACT PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL AND GROUND CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE WARNING:
Turn the ignition off disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
- Disconnect the Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- Disconnect the ORC harness connector.NOTE:
Check the connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
NOTE:After disconnecting the ORC module and the ORC module body harness connector, check the ORC module body harness connector shorting bar pin location. The shorting bar pin location should be down and not visible through the larger center holes of the ORC module body harness connector.
- Connect the (special tool #8443-25, 56 Way ACM Adapter) to the ORC harness connector.WARNING:
Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
- Measure the voltage of the (R130) Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and (R150) Sensor Ground circuit between the appropriate terminals of the SRS Load Tool Adapter 8443-25 and ground.
Is there any voltage present on either circuit?
Yes
- Repair the (R130), (R150) Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor circuits for a short to voltage.
- Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK THE (R130) LEFT SIDE IMPACT PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

- CHECK THE (R130) LEFT SIDE IMPACT PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (R130) Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor Signal circuit between terminal 1 of the Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor harness connector and the C2 32 terminal of the SRS Load Tool Adapter 8443-25.
Is the resistance below 1 Ohm?
Yes
- Go To 7
No
- Repair the (R130) Right Side Impact Pressure Sensor Signal circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure the resistance of the (R130) Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor Signal circuit between terminal 1 of the Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor harness connector and the C2 32 terminal of the SRS Load Tool Adapter 8443-25.
- CHECK OPERATION OF THE LEFT SIDE IMPACT PRESSURE SENSOR
- Replace the Left Side Impact Pressure Sensor. Refer to SENSOR, IMPACT, REMOVAL .
- Reconnect the vehicle body harness to the impact pressure sensor.
- Remove any special tools or jumper wires and reconnect all previously disconnected components - except the Battery.WARNING:
Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
- Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector - use the most current software available.
- Use the scan tool and erase the stored codes in all airbag system modules.
- Turn the Ignition Off, and wait five seconds before turning the Ignition On.
