B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13 and B0052:1D: Notes
Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The RCM monitors the passenger seatbelt buckle switch circuits for the following faults:
- Open circuit
- Short to voltage
- Short to ground
- Current out of range
- Faulted passenger seatbelt buckle switch
If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13 or B0052:1D in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the airbag warning indicator.
DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| B0052:11 | Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Short to Ground | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to ground on the passenger seatbelt buckle switch. |
| B0052:12 | Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Short to Battery | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to voltage on the passenger seatbelt buckle switch. |
| B0052:13 | Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Open | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses an open on either passenger seatbelt buckle switch circuit. |
| B0052:1D | Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Current Out of Range | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses current out of an acceptable range between the passenger seatbelt buckle switch circuits. |
