- IDENTIFYING VEHICLE EQUIPMENT NOTE: Make sure the battery is fully charged. Turn the ignition on. With the scan tool, read ORC active DTCs. Does the scan tool display active DTC: B1B8E-DRIVER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH? Yes Go To 2 . No Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM INTERMITTENT TEST.
- CHECK FOR ACTIVE INTERNAL FAULTS, IGNITION FAULTS, AND BATTERY FAULTS IN THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC) With the scan tool, read Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) DTCs. Does the scan tool display any active DTCs relating to internal faults, ignition faults, or battery faults? Yes Refer to «DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING»(ref-485531-S35692726232012071300000) and perform the appropriate diagnostic. No Go To 3 .
- INSPECT DRIVER SEAT HARNESS WIRES AND CONNECTORS 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. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the driver seat harness wiring and connectors. Look for chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Are any of these conditions present? Yes NOTE: Do not attempt to repair the Seat Harness. Replace the Seat Harness if the condition inspecting or testing for is present in the Seat Harness. Replace the driver seat harness in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. No Go To 4 .
- VERIFY THAT DRIVER SEAT HARNESS IS ROUTED CORRECTLY Verify that the driver seat harness is routed correctly. Is the Driver Seat Harness routed correctly? Yes Go To 5 . No ` Reroute the driver seat harness as necessary. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST.
- CHECK FOR DTC B1B8E-DRIVER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH WITH DRIVER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR DISCONNECTED 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. Disconnect the Driver Seat Track Position Sensor 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. Wait two minutes, and then with the scan tool, read ORC DTCs. Does the scan tool display: B1B8E-DRIVER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH? Yes Go To 6 . 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 Seat Track Position Sensor in accordance with the service information. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST.
- CHECK (R261) DRIVE SEAT POSITION SENSOR DATA CIRCUIT AND (R263) DRIVE SEAT POSITION SENSOR VOLTAGE CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 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. Disconnect the ORC 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. Measure the voltage of the (R261) Driver Seat Position Sensor Data circuit at the Driver Seat Track Position Sensor connector cavity 1. Measure the voltage of the (R263) Driver Seat Position Sensor Voltage circuit at the Driver Seat Track Position Sensor connector cavity 2. Is the voltage above 0.2 of a volt on either circuit? Yes NOTE: Do not attempt to repair the Seat Harness. Replace the Seat Harness if the condition inspecting or testing for is present in the Seat Harness. 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 Seat Harness in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST. No Replace the ORC in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to «STANDARD PROCEDURE»(ref-485515-S14989137882012071300000) and perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST.
