Test 4A - Driver Squib Circuit Shorted
NOTE:
Perform TEST VER-1A - VERIFICATION TEST
after all repairs. Each time a connector is disconnected, inspect it to ensure it is in good condition. Always focus on circuit being tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most common problems in connectors. Due to manufacturer changes in wire colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.
- Disconnect battery and wait 2 minutes before proceeding. Disconnect driver-side air bag module. Turn ignition on. Reconnect battery. Using DRB, read active codes. If DRB displays DRIVER SQUIB CIRCUIT OPEN, replace driver-side air bag module. If not, go to next step.
- Disconnect clockspring 2-pin connector. Using DRB, read active codes. If DRB displays DRIVER SQUIB CIRCUIT OPEN, replace clockspring. If not, go to next step.
- Disconnect battery and wait 2 minutes before proceeding. Disconnect ACM 4-pin connector. Turn ignition on. Reconnect battery. Using DRB, read active codes. If DRB displays DRIVER SQUIB CIRCUIT OPEN, repair short between driver-side air bag module and ACM 4-pin connector (Black/Light Blue wire and Dark Green/Light Blue wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If not, replace ACM.
