Circuit/System Verification

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 GMC Sierra, 2008 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2008 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2008 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
  • The seat belt pretensioners may deploy for impacts that are not severe enough to warrant frontal or side air bag deployment. The SDM is capable of sustaining 3 pretensioner deployment events, or one frontal or side deployment event. After the maximum number of deployments has occurred, DTC B0052 sets and becomes a latched code, which cannot be cleared.
  • When DTC B0053 is accompanied by additional DTCs, other than B0052, repair the malfunction causing the other DTCs before replacing SDM.
  1. Ignition OFF, verify no signs of inflator module or pretensioner deployment exist.
  2. Ignition ON, verify DTC B0052 or DTC B0053 is not set.
    • If the DTC is set, clear DTCs. If DTC resets, replace the SDM.
