No Response: Air Bag Control Module (ACM)
CAUTION:
Always turn ignition switch to OFF position prior to disconnecting any module connector or battery.
- Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect negative battery cable. Wait 2 minutes before proceeding. Disconnect Air Bag Control Module (ACM) connector. Connect negative battery cable. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using a DVOM, measure voltage between ground and ACM connector terminal No. 21 (Violet/Brown wire). If reading is 1.8-2.8 volts, go to next step. If reading is not 1.8-2.8 volts, repair open in Violet/Brown wire. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure voltage between ground and ACM connector terminal No. 22 (White/Black wire). If reading is 1.8-2.8 volts, go to next step. If reading is not 1.8-2.8 volts, repair open in White/Black wire. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Ensure battery is fully charged. Measure resistance between ground and ACM connector terminal No. 4 (Black/Pink wire). Measure resistance between terminal No. 4 of ACM and ground. If both readings are less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If either reading is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Black/Pink wire or replace ACM. Perform AIR BAG VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure voltage between ground and ACM connector terminal No. 14 (Light Green/Yellow wire). Measure voltage between ground and ACM connector terminal No. 15 (Dark Blue/Yellow wire). If both readings are more than 10 volts, go to next step. If either reading is 10 volts or less, inspect fuse No. 18 (10-amp) and fuse No. 19 (10-amp) in Junction Block (JB). If both fuses are okay, repair open or high resistance in Light Green/Yellow wire and/or Dark Blue/Yellow wire. If fuses are blown, repair short to ground in Light Green/Yellow wire and/or Dark Blue/Yellow wire. Replace fuses.Perform AIR BAG VERIFICATION TEST after repairs.
- Inspect connectors for good terminal contact and Repair connectors as necessary. If connectors are okay, turn ignition switch to OFF position. Wait 2 minutes before proceeding. Replace ACM. Perform AIR BAG VERIFICATION TEST .
