The restraints control module (RCM) monitors the driver air bag ignitor by measuring the resistance between pins 3 and 4. If the RCM detects an open or high resistance between these pins, it will store a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B1932 in memory and flash a lamp fault code (LFC) 32 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.
