Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module Scan Tool Information

The SIR scan tool data list and PPS scan tool data list contain the restraint system related parameters that are available on the scan tool. The column, Data List, indicates the location of the parameter within the scan tool menu selections.

Use the SIR scan tool data list as directed by a diagnostic table or in order to supplement the diagnostic procedures. Begin all of the diagnostic procedures with the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle . Use the Scan Tool Data Lists after the following is determined:

The typical data values are obtained from a properly operating vehicle under the conditions specified in the second row of the scan tool data list table. Comparison of the parameter values from the suspect vehicle with the typical data values may reveal the source of the customer concern.

SIR Scan Tool Data List

Parameter System State Expected Value Description
Operating Conditions:  Ignition ON/Engine OFF/Driver Seat Belt Buckled/Passenger Seat Belt Unbuckled
Active Switch - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the SIR active switch.
Active Switch - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR learned the active switch.
Battery Voltage Signal - Varies The scan tool displays 0-20 volts. This is the system voltage measured by the SDM between the battery input and ground.
Deployment Loop 1-12 - Disabled The scan tool displays Disabled or Enabled. This is the state of the SIR deployment loops 1-12
Deployment Loop 1-12 - Not Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Not Learned. This is the status of the SIR deployment loops 1-12.
Driver Seat Belt Switch - Buckled The scan tool displays whether the driver seat belt is buckled or unbuckled.
Driver Seat Belt Type - Switch The scan tool displays whether the driver seat uses a switch or a sensor for the seat belt buckle.
Driver Seat Position Sensor - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the driver seat position sensor.
Driver Seat Position Sensor - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR learned the driver seat position sensor.
Driver Seat Position Sensor - Varies If the vehicle is equipped with a driver seat position sensor. The scan tool displays whether the driver seat is in the Forward or Rearward position to determine if the airbag should activate single or dual stage deployment as necessary.
Impact Sensor 1-6 - Enabled The scan tool displays Disabled/Enabled. This is the state of the SIR impact sensor.
Impact Sensor 1-6 - Learned The scan tool displays Learned/Not Learned. This is the SIR impact sensor learn status.
Loop 1-12 Type - Varies The scan tool displays Not Used, LF Stage 1, RF Stage 1, LF Stage 2, RF Stage 2, LF Preten., RF Preten., LF Side Bag, RF Side Bag, Lt. Roof Stage 1, Rt. Roof Stage 1, Lt. Roof Stage 2, Rt. Roof Stage 2, Lt. Roof Stage 3 or Rt. Roof Stage 3. This is the type of loop.
Psgr. Seat Belt Sensor - Varies The scan tool displays whether the passenger seat belt is buckled or unbuckled.
Passenger Seat Belt Switch - Unbuckled The scan tool displays whether the passenger seat belt is buckled or unbuckled.
PPS Options - Varies The scan tool displays Not Present, Manual, Auto or Auto. + Man. This is the current enabled option of the passenger presence system.
PPS Status - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the passenger presence system.
PPS Status - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR has learned the passenger presence system.
Primary Key Status - Valid The scan tool displays the status of the primary key based on the comparison between the BCM and the SDM. If the Status is other than Valid the SDM will not allow activation and should set a DTC.
Psgr. Seat Belt Sensor - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the passenger seat belt sensor.
Psgr. Seat Belt Sensor - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR learned the passenger seat belt sensor.
Psgr. Seat Belt Type - Varies The scan tool displays whether the passenger seat uses a switch or a sensor for the seat belt buckle.
Psgr. Seat Position Sensor - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the passenger seat belt sensor.
Psgr. Seat Position Sensor - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR learned the passenger seat belt sensor.
Psgr. Seat Position Sensor - Varies If the vehicle is equipped with a passenger seat position sensor. The scan tool displays whether the passenger seat is in the Forward or Rearward position to determine if the airbag should activate single or dual stage deployment as necessary.
Received Primary Key - Varies The scan tool displays what the SDM received from the BCM as the primary key. The SDM then compares it to what it has stored to determine the Primary Key Status. The SDM Primary Key and Received Primary Key should match.
Received VIN Digits 2-5 - Varies The scan tool displays the Secondary Key which includes digits 2 though 5 of the VIN that the BCM sends to the SDM.
Received VIN Digits 6-7 - Varies The scan tool displays the Secondary Key which includes digits 6 and 7 of the VIN that the BCM sends to the SDM.
Rollover Sensor - Enabled The scan tool displays Enabled or Disabled. This is the state of the rollover sensor.
Rollover Sensor - Learned The scan tool displays Learned or Unlearned. Learned is displayed if the SIR learned the rollover sensor.
Run/Crank - Active The scan tool displays the current power mode of the SDM.
SDM Primary Key - Varies The scan tool displays primary key that the SDM has stored to memory.
Secondary Key Status - Valid The scan tool displays whether the Secondary Key is valid or invalid. This determines if the VIN stored in SDM memory matches what is stored in the BCM.
Sensor 1-6 Type - Learned The scan tool displays Not Used, EFS LF, EFS Center, EFS RF, SIS Left Row 1, SIS Right Row 1, SIS Left Row 2 or SIS Right Row 2. This is the type of SIR sensor.
SIR Warning Indicator - Off The scan tool displays whether the SIR warning indicator has been requested ON or OFF.
