The SDM sets this DTC when the SDM has received a critical fault message from the PPS module.

B0081 71

The SDM sets this DTC when the SDM has received invalid serial data from the PPS module.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The SDM disables the passenger instrument cluster air bag.

* The PPS module will illuminate the Passenger Airbag On/Off indicator status as OFF.

* When the PPS module sets this DTC, the PPS module communicates with the SDM to turn the AIRBAG indicator on.

* When the SDM sets this DTC, the SDM will turn the AIRBAG indicator on.

* The SDM requests the instrument panel cluster (IPC) to illuminate the AIRBAG indicator.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition for setting the DTC no longer exists and there is no activity on the low speed serial data circuits.

* A history DTC will clear once 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

If either the SDM or PPS module were replaced, verify that the correct replacement part numbers were used for this vehicle.

1. Ignition ON, verify that DTC B0081 is the only DTC set in the SDM or PPS module.

瀚慖f any other DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code

Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle).

2. Verify DTC B0081 0F, DTC B0081 3A, DTC B0081 39, or DTC B0081 71 is not set in the SDM. If any of these DTCs set in the SDM

diagnose the following:
