Signal Too High

Signal too high

Checking components and wiring
Check the connectors on the central electronic module (CEM) and the sensor for the seat belt reminder. Check for contract resistance and oxidation. Check for damage or loose connections.
Check the connectors between the central electronic module (CEM) and the sensor for the seat belt reminder. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.
Take readings between:
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal D27 (#27) and seat belt reminder sensor terminal #1
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal D28 (#28) and seat belt reminder sensor terminal #2.
Check the seat belt reminder sensor. Measure the resistance between terminals #1 and #2 in the sensor connector.

Hint: The resistance should be above 50 kohms with no passengers and below 50 kohms with passengers.

Remedy as necessary.
