Driver Resistance

The scan tool displays 0-6.3 ohms. The SDM performs the resistance measurement test once each ignition cycle and verifies the Ignition 1 and the 23 VLR voltages are within the normal ranges. Then the SDM sources a constant current to the driver deployment loop. The SDM then measures the voltage drop across the deployment loop and converts the measured voltage value to a driver deployment loop resistance value.
