Test G: Driver Air Bag Circuit Short To Battery Or Ignition (DTC B1916): Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln Navigator and 2002 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Restraints Control Module (RCM) checks driver-side air bag module circuits for short to battery or ignition voltage by monitoring voltage at RCM harness connector C2005, terminals No. 3 (Gray/Orange wire) and No. 4 (Gray/White wire). If RCM detects short to battery or ignition voltage on either terminal, it will store Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1916 in memory and flash Code 15 on AIR BAG warning light.
