NOTE:
Make sure the battery is fully charged.
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read ORC DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display active B0001-13-DRIVER FRONTAL SQUIB 1 CONTROL - CIRCUIT OPEN DTC?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM INTERMITTENT TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
CHECK DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB CIRCUITS FOR OPEN CIRCUITS
WARNING:
Turn the ignition off disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Disconnect the Driver Airbag Squib harness connectors.
  WARNING:
  Do not place an intact non-deployed airbag face down on a hard surface, the airbag propels into the air if accidentally deployed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
  
  NOTE:
  Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
2. Connect the SRS Load Tool Kit (special tool #8443A, SRS Load Tool) and the SRS Load Tool Jumper (special tool #8443-1, Jumpers, 2 Pin) to the Driver Airbag Squib harness connectors.
  WARNING:
  Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
3. With the scan tool, read the ORC DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display active B0001-13-DRIVER FRONTAL SQUIB 1 CONTROL - CIRCUIT OPEN DTC?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 3
  No
  
  WARNING:
  Turn the ignition off, disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
  - Replace the Driver Airbag in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
CHECK THE STEERING CONTROL MODULE SQUIB CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
WARNING:
Turn the ignition off, disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Disconnect the SRS Load Tool Kit (special tool #8443A, SRS Load Tool) and Jumper from the Driver Airbag Squib harness connectors.
2. Disconnect the harness connector.
  NOTE:
  Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
3. Connect the SRS Load Tool Kit and the SRS Load Tool Jumper (special tool #8443-19, 4 Pin Jumper) to the harness connector.
  WARNING:
  Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
4. With the scan tool, read the ORC DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display active B0001-13-DRIVER FRONTAL SQUIB 1 CONTROL - CIRCUIT OPEN DTC?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  
  WARNING:
  Turn the ignition off, disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
  - Replace the STEERING CONTROL MODULE in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
CHECK (R43, R45) DRIVER SQUIB 1 CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
WARNING:
Turn the ignition off, disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Disconnect the SRS Load Tool Kit (special tool #8443A, SRS Load Tool) and the Jumper from the harness connector.
2. Disconnect the ORC harness connectors.
  NOTE:
  Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.
3. Connect the SRS Load Tool Adapter (special tool #8443-57, Adapter, Supplemental Restraint System Load Tool) to the ORC C1 harness connector.
4. Measure the resistance of the (R43) Driver Squib 1 Line 2 circuit between the appropriate terminals of the harness connector and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor (special tool #8443-57, Adapter, Supplemental Restraint System Load Tool).
5. Measure the resistance of the (R45) Driver Squib 1 Line 1 circuit between the appropriate terminals of the harness connector and the SRS Load Tool Adaptor (special tool #8443-57, Adapter, Supplemental Restraint System Load Tool).
  Is the resistance below 1.0 Ohms on both circuits?
  
  Yes
  
  WARNING:
  If the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is dropped at any time, it must be replaced. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
  - Replace the ORC module according to the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER, REMOVAL .
  - Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
  No
  - Repair the (R43, R45) Driver Squib 1 circuits for an open or high resistance.
  - Perform the RESTRAINTS SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
