Test T

PINPOINT TEST T: LFC 32/DTC B1932 - DRIVER AIR BAG CIRCUIT RESISTANCE HIGH


Test T1:






Test T2-T3:






Test T4-T5:






Test T6:






Normal Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) monitors the resistance for the driver air bag ignitor by measuring the resistance between pins 3 and 4. If the RCM detects high resistance between these pins, it will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1932 in memory and flash a Lamp Fault Code (LFC) 32 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.

Possible Causes
Driver air bag high resistance can be caused by:
^ a poor connection or corrosion in the driver air bag module circuits or the clockspring.
^ an open circuit or high resistance in the clockspring windings.
^ an open circuit or high resistance in the wiring harness.
^ an open circuit or high resistance in the driver air bag module.
^ an RCM internal concern.
