8M - 4 RESTRAINT SYSTEM
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)
fuse blows check for shorts to ground between the
module and the seat belt solenoid. Repair as neces-
sary.
(4) If voltage is OK, go to Step 5. If no voltage
check for an open circuit between fuse and module.
Repair as necessary.
(5) Using a ohmmeter check from the module con-
nector, the door ajar switches and circuits for a open
circuit and check for a shorted to ground circuit. If
open or shorted circuit repair as necessary. If OK,
replace Seat Belt Control Timer Module.
Both seat belts lock and unlock with ignition
switch ON or when passenger door ajar
switch activated but not when the driver door
ajar switch is activated.
Using a ohmmeter, check from the module the
driver door ajar switch and circuit for a open circuit
and for a shorted to ground circuit. Check Pin 2 of
the Seat Belt Control Timer Module to ground for
continuity. If not OK, check for open or shorted cir-
cuit and repair as necessary or replace the door ajar
switch. If OK, replace Seat Belt Control Timer Mod-
ule.
Both seat belts lock and unlock with ignition
switch ON or when driver door ajar switch
activated but not when the passenger door
ajar switch is activated.
Using a ohmmeter check from the module the pas-
senger door ajar switch and circuit for a open or
shorted circuit. Check Pin 3 of the Seat Belt Control
Timer Module to ground for continuity. If not OK,
check for open or shorted circuit and repair as neces-
sary or replace the door ajar switch. If OK, replace
Seat Belt Control Timer Module.
Driver seat belt locked, passenger seat belt
unlock.
Using a ohmmeter, check the seat belt solenoid
from Pin 7 of the Seat Belt Control Timer Module to
ground for a reading of 50 to 60 ohms. If OK, replace
Seat Belt Control Timer Module. If not OK, check for
open or shorted circuit and repair as necessary or
replace the seat belt solenoid.
Passenger seat belt locked, driver seat belt
unlock.
Using a ohmmeter, check the seat belt solenoid
from Pin 8 of the Seat Belt Control Timer Module to
ground for a reading of 50 to 60 ohms. If OK, replace

replace the seat belt solenoid.

SERVICE PROCEDURES

CLEANUP PROCEDURE

Roll or fold the Passenger Airbag Module towards
the instrument panel surface and close the door over
the folded bag. Then tape the door shut.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residual pow-
der from the vehicle interior. Work from the outside
in to avoid kneeling or sitting in a contaminated
area. Vacuum the heater and A/C outlets as well (Fig.
2). If the heater or air conditioner was in RECIRC
mode at time of airbag deployment, operate blower
motor on low speed and vacuum powder residue
expelled from the heater and A/C outlets. Multiple
vacuum cleaning may to necessary to decontaminate
the interior of the vehicle.
NOTE: Dispose deployed airbag properly, contact
dealer or government agency for disposal recom-
mendations.
