Test T1-T2:

Test T3-T6:

Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) monitors the passenger side air bag circuits at RCM C1 pins 5 and 6 for a short to battery or ignition. If battery or ignition voltage is detected, the RCM will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B1996 and flash lamp fault code (LFC) 37.

Possible Causes
A passenger side air bag circuit short to battery or ignition can be caused by:
- battery or ignition voltage on circuit 1259 (WH/YE).
- battery or ignition voltage on circuit 1260 (BN/YE).
- battery or ignition voltage short in the passenger side air bag module.
- an RCM internal concern.
