DTC B1426: Safety Belt Light Circuit Short To Battery

Check Instrument Cluster For Short To Battery - Turn ignition off. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Disconnect instrument cluster connector C250. See Figure - Figure . Measure voltage at instrument cluster connector C250 terminal No. 13 (Yellow wire). If battery voltage exists, go to next step. If battery voltage does not exist, replace instrument cluster printed circuit. See PRINTED CIRCUIT under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Retest system.
Check Yellow Wire For Short To Battery - Turn ignition off. Disconnect GEM connector C236. See Figure - Figure . Measure voltage at GEM harness connector C236 terminal No. 1 (Yellow wire). If battery voltage exists, repair short to power in Yellow wire between instrument cluster and GEM. If battery voltage does not exist, replace GEM. Retest system.
