Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The RCM briefly activates each LED in the PAD indicator to prove-out and verify to the occupants correct functional operation of the PAD indicator to the occupants. 

The RCM monitors the PAD indicator power supply and "ON" LED circuits for the following faults: 

• Open circuit
• Short to voltage
• Short to ground
• Faulted PAD indicator

If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B1202:11, B1202:12 or B1202:13 in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the airbag warning indicator.
