Pinpoint Test S: DTC B1881/B1886 - Seat Belt Passenger PRETENSIONER Circuit Open Fault/Seat Belt Passenger PRETENSIONER Circuit Resistance Low On Squib Fault

NOTE: Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough Inspection and Verification before proceeding with the Pinpoint Test.
  1. S1 CHECK FOR CONTINUOUS AND ON-DEMAND DTCs 
    WARNING: Restraint system diagnostic tools are for service only. Tools must be removed prior to operating the vehicle over the road. Failure to remove restraint system diagnostic tools could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
    WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag deployment, which can result in personal injury.
    WARNING: The safety belt pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device. Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag equipped vehicle and when handling a safety belt buckle pretensioner or safety belt retractor pretensioner. Never probe a pretensioner electrical connector. Doing so could result in pretensioner or air bag deployment and could result in personal injury.
    NOTE: After diagnosing or repairing an SRS, the restraint system diagnostic tools must be removed before operating the vehicle over the road. 
    NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: On-Demand Self Test.

    • Was DTC B1881 or B1886 retrieved during the on-demand self test? 

    Yes  : This is a hard fault. The fault condition is still present. This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC is no longer retrieved during the on-demand self test. GO to  S2.

    No  : This is an intermittent fault. The fault condition is not present at this time. GO to  S7.

  2. S2 CHECK THE PASSENGER SAFETY BELT PRETENSIONER CIRCUITS RESISTANCE 

    Yes  : For DTC B1881, GO to  S4.

    For DTC B1886, GO to  S3.

    No  : INSTALL a new passenger safety belt pretensioner. REFER to SAFETY BELT SYSTEM . GO to  S8.

  3. S3 CHECK THE PASSENGER SAFETY BELT PRETENSIONER CIRCUIT 91S-JA34 (BK/RD) AND CIRCUIT 15S-JA34 (GN/OG) FOR LOW RESISTANCE 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Depower the system. Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING  in this article.
    • Disconnect: Restraint System Diagnostic Tool From Passenger Safety Belt Pretensioner C303.
    • Disconnect: RCM C2041a and C2041b.
    • Measure the resistance between passenger safety belt pretensioner C303-1, circuit 15S-JA34 (GN/OG), and C303-2, circuit 91S-JA34 (BK/RD), harness side.

    • Is the resistance greater than 1,000,000 ohms? 

    Yes  : GO to  S6.

    No  : REPAIR circuit 91S-JA34 (BK/RD) and circuit 15S-JA34 (GN/OG). GO to  S8.

  4. S4 CHECK CIRCUIT 91S-JA34 (BK/RD) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Depower the system. Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING  in this article.
    • Disconnect: Restraint System Diagnostic Tool From Passenger Safety Belt Pretensioner C303.
    • Disconnect: RCM C2041a and C2041b.
    • Measure the resistance between RCM C2041a-19, circuit 91S-JA34 (BK/RD), harness side and passenger safety belt buckle pretensioner C303-2, circuit 91S-JA34 (BK/RD), harness side.

    • Is the resistance less than 0.5 ohm? 

    Yes  : GO to  S5.

    No  : REPAIR circuit 91S-JA34 (BK/RD). GO to  S8.

  5. S5 CHECK CIRCUIT 15S-JA34 (GN/OG) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Measure the resistance between RCM C2041a-20, circuit 15S-JA34 (GN/OG), harness side and passenger safety belt buckle pretensioner C303-1, circuit 15S-JA34 (GN/OG), harness side.

    • Is the resistance less than 0.5 ohm? 

    Yes  : INSTALL a new passenger safety belt pretensioner. REFER to SAFETY BELT SYSTEM . GO to  S8.

    No  : REPAIR circuit 15S-JA34 (GN/OG). GO to  S8.

  6. S6 CONFIRM THE RCM FAULT 
    NOTE: Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tools, sensor electrical connectors and the RCM electrical connectors are connected before carrying out the on-demand self test. If not, erroneous DTCs will be recorded.
    • Connect: Restraint System Diagnostic Tool 418-F395 to Passenger Safety Belt Pretensioner C303.
    • Connect: RCM C2041a and C2041b.
    • Repower the system. Do not  prove out the system at this time. Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING  in this article.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: On-Demand Self Test.
    • Was DTC B1881 or B1886 retrieved during the on-demand self test? 

    Yes  : INSTALL and CONFIGURE a new RCM. REFER to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM)  in this article. GO to  S8.

    No  : CHECK for causes of the intermittent fault on the pretensioner circuits. ATTEMPT to recreate the hard fault by flexing the wire harness and cycling the ignition key frequently. REPAIR any intermittent concerns found. GO to  S8.

  7. S7 CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT FAULT 

    Yes  : This is a hard fault. The fault condition is now present. This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC is no longer retrieved during the on-demand self test.

    CHECK for causes of the intermittent fault at or near the passenger safety belt pretensioner electrical connector. REPAIR any intermittent concern found.

    If an intermittent concern was  found and repaired, GO to  S8.

    If an intermittent concern was not found and repaired, USE the faults recorded and GO to the appropriate pinpoint test step GO to  S3 for DTC B1886, GO to  S4 for DTC B1881.

    • Refer to the continuous DTCs recorded during Step S1.
    • Were any continuous DTCs retrieved during Step S1? 

    Yes  : Do not clear any DTCs until all DTCs have been resolved. GO to the DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)  in this article for pinpoint test direction.

    No  : RECONNECT the system. If previously directed to deactivate the system, REACTIVATE the system. REFER to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEACTIVATION AND REACTIVATION  in this article. REPOWER the system. REFER to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING  in this article. PROVE OUT the system. CLEAR all DTCs.
