U7 - U8:






Normal Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) monitors the resistance of the passenger seat side air bag module circuit loop and the air bag module igniter at RCM C2041b pins 5 and 6. If the resistance is greater than 3.6 ohms, the RCM will store Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1998 and flash Lamp Fault Code (LFC) 37.

Possible Causes
A high resistance on the passenger seat side air bag module circuit can be caused by:
^ damaged wiring on circuit 1259 (WH/YE).
^ damaged wiring on circuit 1260 (BN/YE).
^ damaged passenger seat side air bag module.
^ a faulted RCM.
