PINPOINT TEST I : DTCs B00B5:11, B00B5:12, B00B5:13 AND B00B5:1D: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Lincoln Navigator and 2017 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Diagnostic Overview
Diagnostics in this article assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Service Information for information about these practices.
Refer to Supplemental Restraint System , for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The RCM continuously monitors the driver seat position sensor and circuits for the following faults:
- Short to ground
- Short to voltage
- Open circuit
- Current out of range
- Faulted driver seat track position sensor
If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B00B5:11, B00B5:12, B00B5:13 or B00B5:1D in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the airbag warning indicator.
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Condition |
|---|---|---|
| B00B5:11 | Driver Seat Track Position Restraints Sensor: Circuit Short to Ground | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to ground on the driver seat track position sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds. |
| B00B5:12 | Driver Seat Track Position Restraints Sensor: Circuit Short to Battery | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to voltage on the driver seat track position sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds. |
| B00B5:13 | Driver Seat Track Position Restraints Sensor: Circuit Open | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses an open on the driver seat track position sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds. An open driver seat track position sensor ground circuit also sets this fault. |
| B00B5:1D | Driver Seat Track Position Restraints Sensor: Circuit Current Out of Range | A fault is indicated when the RCM senses current out of an acceptable range between the driver seat track position sensor circuits for more than 6 seconds. |
