Normal Operation
The Occupant Classification System Module (OCSM) monitors each Occupant Classification System (OCS) weight sensor bolt and circuitry for faults. If the OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module) detects an upward force (obstruction) on the passenger seat for 60 seconds, it will store DTC B00A0:97 in memory and send a message to the Restraints Control Module (RCM).
The RCM (Restraints Control Module) will store DTC B00A0:09 in memory and send a message to the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

- DTC B00A0:97 (Occupant Classification System: Component or System Operation Obstructed or Blocked)- If the OCSM (Occupant Classification System Module) detects a negative force on one or more OCS (Occupant Classification System) weight sensor bolt(s), it will set this DTC.
