Circuit/System Testing

NOTE:

When removing connectors inspect for damage or corrosion. Damage or corrosion in the following requires repair or replacement of the affected component/connector.

  • S48B Multifunction Switch - Overhead Console.
  • K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48B Multifunction Switch - Overhead Console.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 19 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Passenger seat occupied.
  4. Test for less than 11 V between the control circuit terminal 13 and ground.
    • If 11 V or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    3. Ignition ON.
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    • Go to next step: If less than 11 V 
  5. Test for greater than 25 Ω between the control circuit terminal 13 and ground.
    • If 25 Ω or less 
    1. Disconnect the harness connector at the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K36 Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module.
    • Go to next step: If greater than 25 Ω 
  6. Test or replace the S48B Multifunction Switch - Overhead Console.
