Circuit Test K - Code 33, High Resistance Or Open In Passenger-Side Air Bag CKT

NOTE: Before proceeding, follow air bag service precautions. See SERVICE PRECAUTIONS  . After repairs are performed, recheck AIR BAG warning light for other fault codes. Perform system operation check. See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  .
  1. INITIAL TEST PROCEDURE  - Deactivate SRS. See COMPLETE SYSTEM DEACTIVATION  under DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM. If vehicle is equipped with passenger-side air bag, go to step 2). If vehicle is not equipped with passenger-side air bag, go to step 5).
  2. VERIFY SYSTEM  - Check AIR BAG warning light for codes. See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If AIR BAG warning light indicates Code 33, go to step 3). If AIR BAG warning light does not indicate Code 33, replace passenger-side air bag. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS.
  3. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CIRCUIT NO. 614 (GRAY/ORANGE WIRE)  - Remove passenger-side air bag simulator. Disconnect diagnostic monitor. See Figure . Check resistance between circuit No. 614 (Gray/Orange) at passenger-side air bag connector and terminal No. 8 (Gray/Orange wire) of diagnostic monitor Black connector. See Figure . If resistance is less than one ohm, go to step 4). If resistance is more than one ohm, locate and repair open in circuit No. 614 (Gray/Orange wire). Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS.
  4. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CIRCUIT NO. 616 (PINK/BLACK WIRE)  - Check resistance between circuit No. 616 (Pink/Black wire) of passenger-side air bag connector and terminal No. 9 (Pink/Black wire) of diagnostic monitor Black connector. If resistance is less than one ohm, replace diagnostic monitor. Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS. If resistance is more than one ohm, locate and repair open in circuit No. 616 (Pink/Black wire). Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS.
  5. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CIRCUIT NO. 49 (ORANGE WIRE)  - Disconnect diagnostic monitor. See Figure . Check resistance between terminal No. 7 (Orange wire) of diagnostic monitor Black connector and circuit No. 49 (Orange wire) of air bag delete bracket. Bracket is bolted to instrument panel above glove compartment opening. See Fig 1 . If resistance is less than one ohm, go to step 6). If resistance is more than one ohm, locate and repair open in circuit No. 49 (Orange wire) between diagnostic monitor Black connector and ground. Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS.

  6. VERIFY INOPERATIVE CONNECTION IN CIRCUIT NO. 49 (ORANGE WIRE)  - Check resistance between circuit No. 49 (Orange wire) on passenger-side air bag delete bracket and ground. If resistance is less then one ohm, replace diagnostic monitor. Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS. If resistance is more than one ohm, repair connection between circuit No. 49 (Orange wire) and ground. Reconnect all disconnected SRS connectors. When repairs are complete, check AIR BAG warning light for codes with Air Bag Simulator(s) (105-00008) still in place of air bag module(s). See TESTING - SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  . If system checks okay, reactivate SRS.
