WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan, 2010 Lincoln MKZ, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Never probe the electrical connectors on air bag, Safety Canopy® or side air curtain modules. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of these modules, which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: Never disassemble or tamper with safety belt buckle/retractor pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors or probe the electrical connectors. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the safety belt pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
NOTE: SRS components should only be disconnected or reconnected when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS  .
NOTE: Always make sure the correct SRS  component is being installed. Parts released for other vehicles may not be compatible even if they appear physically similar. Check the part number listed in the Ford Catalog Advantage™ to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS  component is installed, DTCs may set.
NOTE: The SRS  must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
  1. AD1 RETRIEVE RCM DTCs 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self Test - RCM  .
    • Were any incorrect component installed DTCs retrieved? 
    • Yes  : This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC is no longer retrieved during self-test. GO to AD2  .
    • No  : This is an intermittent fault when present as a CMDTC only. GO to  AD7.
  2. AD2 CHECK THE VEHICLE HISTORY 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Check the vehicle repair history.
    • Has a new RCM  or OCSM been installed during this or a prior repair? 
    • Yes  : GO to AD3  .
    • No  : GO to  AD4.
  3. AD3 CHECK THE RCM AND OCSM VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION PIDs 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: DataLogger - RCM  .
    • View and record the following PID values:
      • V_ID_14229_RCM
      • OCS_MY
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: DataLogger - OCSM  .
    • View and record the following PID values:
      • V_ID_14229_OCS
      • MY_14229
    • Verify the correct vehicle application.
    • Do the PID values match the vehicle application? 
    • Yes  : GO to AD4  .
    • No  : INSTALL the correct RCM  or OCSM  . REFER to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM)  or Occupant Classification System Module (OCSM). GO to  AD8.
  4. AD4 CHECK THE ABS MODULE 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Check the part number on the ABS module against the part number listed in the Ford Catalog Advantage™ or equivalent.
    • Does the part number on the ABS module match? 
    • Yes  : GO to AD5  .
    • No  : INSTALL the correct ABS module. REFER to the Removal and Installation procedure in VEHICLE DYNAMIC SYSTEMS . GO to  AD8.
  5. AD5 CHECK THE RCM 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Carry out Programmable Module Installation (PMI) for the RCM  . Use as-built data when carrying out PMI  . Refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION .
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self Test - RCM  .
    • Were any incorrect component installed DTCs retrieved on-demand during self-test? 
    • Yes  : GO to AD6  .
    • No  : Fault corrected. GO to  AD8.
  6. AD6 CONFIRM THE RCM FAULT 
    NOTE: Make sure all restraint system components, sensor electrical connectors and the RCM  electrical connectors are connected before carrying out the self-test. If not, DTCs will be recorded.
    • Prior to reconnecting any previously disconnected SRS  component:
      • inspect connector(s) (including any in-line connectors) for pushed out, loose or spread terminals and loose or frayed wire connections at terminals.
      • inspect wire harness for any damage, pinched, cut or pierced wires.
      • inspect C310A and C310B Connector Position Assurance (CPA) lever/lock for correct operation. Refer to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) .
      • repair any concerns found.

        Refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article for schematic and connector information.

    • Connect: All Previously Disconnected Component (s)/Connector(s).
    • Repower the SRS  . Do not  prove out the SRS  at this time. Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self Test - RCM  .
    • Were any incorrect component installed DTCs retrieved? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL a new RCM  . REFER to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) . GO to  AD8.
    • No  : In the process of diagnosing the fault, the fault condition has become intermittent.

      Do not install any new SRS  components at this time. SRS  components should only be installed when directed to do so in the pinpoint test. GO to AD7 . 

  7. AD7 CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT FAULT 
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self Test - RCM  .
    • Were any DTCs retrieved? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL new RCM  . REFER to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) . GO to AD8  .
    • No  : CHECK for causes of the intermittent fault. ATTEMPT to recreate the hard fault by flexing the wire harness and cycling the ignition frequently. ACTIVATE other systems in the same wire harness. Do not install any new SRS  components at this time. SRS components should only be installed when directed to do so in the pinpoint test.  GO to AD8  .
  8. AD8 CHECK FOR ADDITIONAL SRS DTCs 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • WARNING: Turn the ignition OFF and wait one minute to deplete the backup power supply. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury or death in the event of an accidental deployment.
    • Reconnect all SRS  components (if previously disconnected).
    • If previously directed to depower the SRS  , repower the SRS  . Do not  prove out the SRS  at this time. Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self Test - Restraints.
    • NOTE: When selecting Restraints from the Self Test menu, DTCs will be retrieved from the RCM  and OCSM  .
    • Are any RCM  and/or OCSM retrieved on-demand during self-test? 
    • Yes  : Do not clear any DTCs until all DTCs have been resolved. GO to the DTC CHARTS  for pinpoint test direction.
    • No  : CLEAR all RCM  and OCSM  DTCs. PROVE OUT the SRS  . Repair is complete. RETURN the vehicle to the customer.
