Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. VERIFY ACTIVE DTC 
    NOTE:

    Make sure the battery is fully charged.

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. With the scan tool, read ORC DTC.

      Does the scan tool display active BUCKLE SWITCH - CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY DTC?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

  2. SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH SHORTED 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.

    1. Disconnect the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

      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.

    2. Measure the voltage on the Seat Belt Buckle Switch Sense circuit between the appropriate terminal of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector and ground.
    3. Measure the voltage on the Seat Belt Buckle Switch Ground circuit between the appropriate terminal of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector and ground.

      Is there a short to voltage on any of these circuits?

      Yes 

      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.

      • Repair the Seat Belt Buckle Switch circuits for a short to voltage in accordance with the Service Information.
      • Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST .

      No

  3. SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT AND SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    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.

    1. Disconnect the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector.
    2. Disconnect the ORC harness connectors.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

      NOTE:

      Probing of the circuit cavities at the ORC Module body harness connectors is only to be done with a approved test lead from the (special tool #10159, Test Leads, Dedicated), test lead 10159-6. Or a comparable test lead to prevent vehicle wiring harness connector damage during diagnostic procedures.

    3. Connect the test probes to the appropriate ORC harness connector terminal(s).
    4. Measure the resistance of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch Sense circuit between the appropriate terminal of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector and the appropriate terminal of the connector.
    5. Measure the resistance of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch Ground circuit between the appropriate terminal of the Seat Belt Buckle Switch harness connector and the appropriate terminal of the connector.

      Is the resistance greater than 1.0 Ohm on any of these circuits?

      Yes 

      • Repair the Seat Belt Buckle Switch circuits for an open in accordance with the Service Information.
      • Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST .

      No

  4. CHECK OPERATION OF THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH 
    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.

    1. Replace the Seat Belt Buckle Switch in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Reconnect the vehicle body harness connector to the Seat Belt Buckle Switch.
    3. 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.

    4. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector - use the most current software available.
    5. Use the scan tool and erase the stored DTCs.
    6. Turn the Ignition OFF, and wait 15 seconds before turning the Ignition ON.
    7. Wait one minute, and read active DTCs and if there are none present read the stored DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display active BUCKLE SWITCH - CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY DTC?

      Yes 

      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.

      WARNING:

      If the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is dropped at any time, it must be replaced. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
