Circuit/System Verification

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • Perform a passenger presence rezero procedure whenever a component is replaced.
  • The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module and passenger presence module can set DTC B0081 but with different symptoms bytes. Therefore it is important to identify which module has set the DTC B0081. Use the symptom bytes as a way of identify the correct module to diagnose. Use the table below in identifying specific module DTC B0081 application and symptom byte that sets with it.
DTC Symptom Bytes
B0081 - Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module 00 3A
B0081 - Passenger Presence Module 11 42
NOTE:

The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module sets a DTC B0081 3A when an incorrect passenger presence module is installed.

  1. Verify that DTC B0081 3A is not set in the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    • If DTC B0081 3A is set in the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module 

      Replace the K85 Passenger Presence Module.

  3. Verify that DTC B0081 11 or DTC B0081 42 is not set in the K85 Passenger Presence Module.
    • If DTC B0081 11 or DTC B0081 42 is set in the K85 Passenger Presence Module 

      Perform the Passenger Presence System Programming and Setup procedure. Refer to Control Module References .
