  3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the passenger presence module.
  4. Ignition OFF, test for less then 10 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
    • If greater then the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  5. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  6. Reconnect all PPS components and perform the Passenger Presence System Programming and Setup .
  7. Clear all DTCs and operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC. DTC B0081 should not set.
    • If DTC B0081 sets, replace the passenger presence module.
