Pinpoint Test N: B00C5:11, B00C5:12, B00C5:13 And B00C5:1D

WARNING: Do not handle, move or change the original horizontal mounting position of the Restraints Control Module (RCM) while the Restraints Control Module (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 the Ford Catalog Advantage™ or equivalent to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS  component is installed, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) may set.
NOTE: The SRS  must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
  1. A1 RETRIEVE RCM (RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) 

    Was DTC B00C5:11, B00C5:12, B00C5:13 or B00C5:1D 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  B00C5:11 or B00C5:1D, GO to  A2 For DTC  B00C5:12, GO to  A4 For DTC  B00C5:13, GO to  A5
    2. No  : This is an intermittent fault when present as a Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Code (CMDTC) only. GO to  A10
  2. A2 CHECK THE PASSENGER SEAT TRACK POSITION RESTRAINTS SENSOR DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE) FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (SHORT TO GROUND OR CURRENT OUT OF RANGE 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.
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Depower the SRS  .

      REFER to: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .

    • Disconnect RH  Seat Track Position Sensor (Inline) C3007C  .
    • Repower the SRS  . Do not prove out the SRS  at this time.

      REFER to: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .

    • Ignition ON.
    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform RCM  self-test.
    • DIAGNOSTIC TIP: When viewing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with the RH  seat track position sensor disconnected, an open circuit fault is normally retrieved. Due to the inline seat connector being disconnected, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will also set for the passenger safety belt buckle switch, OCSM  and passenger side airbag.

    Did the on-demand DTC change from B00C5:11 or B00C5:1D to B00C5:13? 

    1. Yes  : GO to  A8
    2. No  : For DTC  B00C5:11, GO to  A3 For DTC  B00C5:1D, GO to  A9
  3. A3 CHECK THE RH (RIGHT-HAND) SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 

    Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    1. Yes  : GO to  A9
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES EXCEPT ELECTRIC--> for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  A11

  4. A4 CHECK THE RH (RIGHT-HAND) SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 

    Is any voltage present? 

    1. Yes  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES EXCEPT ELECTRIC--> for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  A11

    2. No  : GO to  A9
  5. A5 CHECK THE PASSENGER SEATBELT SENSOR DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE) FOR A FAULT STATUS CHANGE (OPEN 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.
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Depower the SRS  .

      REFER to: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .

    • Disconnect RH  Seat Track Position Sensor (Inline) C3007C  .
    • Connect a fused jumper wire:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C3007C-1  FUSED JUMPER WIRE C3007C-2 
    • Repower the SRS  . Do not prove out the SRS  at this time.

      REFER to: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) DEPOWERING AND REPOWERING .

    • Ignition ON.
    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform RCM  self-test to retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
    • DIAGNOSTIC TIP: When viewing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with the RH  seat track position sensor circuits shorted together, a short to ground fault is normally retrieved. Due to the inline seat connector being disconnected, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will also set for the passenger safety belt buckle switch, OCSM  and passenger side airbag.

    Did the on-demand DTC change from B00C5:13 to B00C5:11? 

    1. Yes  : REMOVE the fused jumper wire and GO to  A8
    2. No  : REMOVE the fused jumper wire and GO to  A6
  6. A6 CHECK THE RH (RIGHT-HAND) SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 

    Is the resistance less than 0.5 ohm? 

    1. Yes  : GO to  A7
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES EXCEPT ELECTRIC--> for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  A11

  7. A7 CHECK THE RH (RIGHT-HAND) SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C3007C-2  OHM C310B-34 

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    1. Yes  : GO to  A9
    2. No  : REPAIR the circuit.

      Refer to OEM CONNECTOR REPAIR PROCEDURES EXCEPT ELECTRIC--> for schematic and connector information.

      GO to  A11

  8. A8 CONFIRM THE RH (RIGHT-HAND) SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR FAULT 
    NOTE: Make sure all SRS  components and the RCM  electrical connectors are connected before carrying out the self-test. If not, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will be recorded.

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

    1. Yes  : REMOVE and INSPECT the driver seat position sensor jumper harness for damage. If a concern is found, REPAIR the harness as necessary. If a concern is not found in the harness, INSTALL a new RH  seat track position sensor.

      REFER to: SEAT POSITION SENSOR .

      GO to  A11

    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  A10
  9. A9 CONFIRM THE RCM (RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE) FAULT 
    NOTE: Make sure all SRS  components and the RCM  electrical connectors are connected before carrying out the self-test. If not, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will be recorded.

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

    1. Yes  : CHECK OASIS  for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB  exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB  instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new RCM  .

      REFER to: RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) .

      GO to  A11

    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  A10
  10. A10 CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT FAULT 

    Was DTC B00C5:11, B00C5:12, B00C5:13 or B00C5:1D 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  B00C5:11 or B00C5:1D, GO to  A2 For DTC  B00C5:12, GO to  A4 For DTC  B00C5:13, GO to  A5
    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  A11
  11. A11 CHECK FOR ADDITIONAL SRS (SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) 

    Are any RCM and/or OCSM Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) retrieved on-demand during self-test? 

    1. Yes  : Do not clear any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) until all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) have been resolved. Refer to DTC CHART: RCM or Refer to DTC CHART: OCSM for pinpoint test direction.
    2. No  : CLEAR Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs) from all modules. PROVE OUT the SRS  . The repair is complete. RETURN the vehicle to the customer.
