Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) monitors the driver seat track position sensor circuits. If the RCM detects an open circuit, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) C1946 in memory and send a message to the instrument cluster module to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

Possible Causes
A driver seat track position sensor open circuit fault can be caused by:
- damaged wiring, terminals or connectors.
- a faulty driver seat track position sensor.
- RCM is faulted.
