DTC Chart
While the LFCs (Lamp Fault Codes) are an indication of a general concern in the SRS (Supplemental Restraint System), the DTCs are more specific. The DTCs can be retrieved from the RCM (Restraints Control Module) with a scan tool via the DLC (Data Link Connector).
Restraints Control Module (RCM) DTC Chart
NOTE: Always make sure the correct Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) component is being installed. Parts released for other vehicles may not be compatible even if they appear physically similar. Check the part number listed in the Ford Catalog Advantage(TM) or equivalent to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) component is installed, DTCs may set.
NOTE: This module utilizes a 5-character DTC followed by a 2-character failure type code. The failure type code provides information about specific fault conditions such as opens or shorts to ground. Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs) have an additional 2-character DTC status code suffix to assist in determining DTC history.
