PINPOINT TEST BO: B1417:11 and B1417:93

WARNING: Do not handle, move or change the original horizontal mounting position of the restraints control module (RCM) while the RCM is connected and the ignition switch is ON. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the Safety Canopy and cause serious personal injury or death.
NOTE: Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough inspection and verification before proceeding with the pinpoint test.
NOTE: Only disconnect or reconnect SRS  components 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 Ford Catalog Advantage™ or equivalent to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS  component is installed, DTCs  may set.
NOTE: Do not probe any impact sensor. The impact sensor cannot be tested using a multi-meter
NOTE: The SRS  must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
  1. BO1 RETRIEVE RCM DTCs 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Using a scan tool, perform RCM  self-test to retrieve DTCs  .

    Was DTC B1417:11 or B1417:93 retrieved on-demand during self-test? 

    1. Yes  : This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC  is no longer retrieved on-demand during self-test.

      For DTC  B1417:11, GO to BO2  .

      For DTC  B1417:93, GO to  BO5.

    2. No  : This is an intermittent fault when present as a CMDTC  only. GO to  BO10.
  2. BO2 CHECK THE PASSENGER FRONTAL RESTRAINTS SENSOR DTC FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (SHORT TO GROUND INDICATED) 
    NOTE: This pinpoint test step attempts to change the fault reported by the RCM  by inducing a different fault condition. If the reported fault changes, this indicates the RCM  is functioning correctly and is not the source of the fault.

    Did the on-demand DTC change from B1417:11 to B1417:93? 

    1. Yes  : INSTALL a new RH front impact severity sensor. REFER to FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR . GO to  BO11.
    2. No  : GO to BO3  .
  3. BO3 CHECK THE RH FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR FEED CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 

    Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    1. Yes  : GO to BO4  .
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  BO11.

  4. BO4 CHECK FOR A SHORT BETWEEN RH FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR CIRCUITS 
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C1466-1  OHM C1466-2 

    Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    1. Yes  : GO to  BO9.
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuits.

    Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES for schematic and connector information.

    GO to  BO11.

  5. BO5 CHECK THE RH FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR AND RCM CONNECTIONS (NO OPERATION INDICATED) 

    Was DTC B1417:93 retrieved on-demand during self-test? 

    1. Yes  : GO to BO6  .
    2. No  : The fault has been corrected. GO to  BO11.
  6. BO6 CHECK THE RH FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR FEED CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE (NO OPERATION INDICATED) 

    Is any voltage present? 

    1. Yes  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  BO11.

    2. No  : GO to BO7  .
  7. BO7 CHECK THE RH FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN 

    Are the resistances less than 0.5 ohm? 

    1. Yes  : GO to BO8  .
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuit(s).

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  BO11.

  8. BO8 CHECK THE PASSENGER FRONTAL RESTRAINTS SENSOR DTC FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (NO OPERATION INDICATED) 
    NOTE: This pinpoint test step attempts to change the fault reported by the RCM  by inducing a different fault condition. If the reported fault changes, this indicates the RCM  is functioning correctly and is not the source of the fault.

    Did the on-demand DTC change from B1417:93 to B1417:11? 

    1. Yes  : REMOVE the fused jumper wire and INSTALL a new RH front impact severity sensor. REFER to FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR . GO to  BO11.
    2. No  : REMOVE the fused jumper wire and GO to BO9  .
  9. BO9 CONFIRM THE RCM FAULT 
    NOTE: Make sure all SRS  components and the RCM  electrical connectors are connected before carrying out the self-test. If not, DTCs will be recorded.

    Was the original DTC retrieved on-demand during self-test? 

    1. Yes  : CHECK OASIS  for any applicable TSBs  . If a TSB  exists for this concern, discontinue this test and follow TSB  instructions. If no TSBs  address this concern, INSTALL a new RCM  . REFER to RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) . GO to  BO11.
    2. No  : In the process of diagnosing the fault, the fault condition has become intermittent. Do not install any new SRS components at this time. Install SRS components only when directed to do so in the pinpoint test  . GO to BO10  .
  10. BO10 CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT FAULT 

    Was DTC B1417:11 or B1417:93 retrieved on-demand during the self-test? 

    1. Yes  : This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC  is no longer retrieved on-demand during self-test.

      For DTC  B1417:11, GO to 2.

      For DTC  B1417:93, GO to 5.

    2. No  : The fault is not present and cannot be recreated at this time. Do not install any new SRS components at this time. Install SRS components only when directed to do so in the pinpoint test  . GO to BO11  .
  11. BO11 CHECK FOR ADDITIONAL SRS DTCs 
    • 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.

      Ignition OFF.

    • 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 - WITH INTELLIGENT ACCESS (IA) .
    • Ignition ON.
    • NOTE: When selecting Restraints from the Self-Test menu, DTCs  are retrieved from the RCM  and OCSM  .

      Using a scan tool, perform Restraints  self-test to retrieve DTCs  .

    Are any RCM and/or OCSM DTCs retrieved on-demand during self-test? 

    1. Yes  : Do not clear any DTCs  until all DTCs  have been resolved. REFER to the appropriate DTC CHART for pinpoint test direction.
    2. No  : CLEAR all RCM  and OCSM CMDTCs  . PROVE OUT the SRS  . The repair is complete. RETURN the vehicle to the customer.
