Test G: DTC B2292 - Restraint System - Seatbelt Pretensioner Fault

PINPOINT TEST G: DTC B2292 - RESTRAINT SYSTEM - SEATBELT PRETENSIONER FAULT

Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) monitors safety belt retractor pretensioner circuits for faults. The RCM will set a DTC if a short to battery or short to ground fault is detected. The RCM will also set a DTC if the loop resistance is less than 0.9 ohm or greater than 5 ohms. The normal expected resistance range is 1.23 to 3.31 ohms. If a loop resistance is between 0.9 and 1.23 or between 3.31 and 5 ohms, a DTC will not set but there exists a strong potential for an intermittent fault. If the RCM detects one of the following faults on any of the safety belt retractor pretensioner circuits, it will store DTC B2292 in memory and send a message to the instrument cluster (IC) module to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

NOTE: When monitoring fault and/or resistance PIDs with the scan tool, it may take up to 2 seconds for the scan tool display to update.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
