DTC B0081 4B

- Passenger Presence Module Calibration Not Learned

Circuit/System Description

When the ignition is turned ON, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) and the passenger presence module perform tests to

diagnose critical malfunctions. Upon a successful power-up mode the SDM will illuminate both PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF indicators. If the

SDM detects a fault in the passenger presence module, it may disable the passenger instrument panel air bag deployment loop, set DTC B0081 and

illuminate the AIRBAG indicator.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition voltage is between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Any of the following conditions must exist for 5 seconds.

B0081 11

The passenger presence module has failed preload procedure.

B0081 4B

The passenger presence module is not calibrated.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The SDM requests the instrument cluster to illuminate the AIR BAG indicator.

* The passenger instrument panel air bag deployment loop will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition for setting the DTC no longer exists.

* 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 part numbers were used for the vehicle application.

* If this DTC is set as either current or history it may have been caused by an electronic device. If an electronic device (Computers, MP3

Players, Cell Phones, Diagnostic Scan Tool, etc.) was placed on the passenger seat the passenger presence module may command the

passenger air bag indicator to turn on and/or command the passenger seat belt indicator to turn on. Make sure there are no objects on the

passenger seat and clear the DTCs. If this DTC resets then perform this diagnostic. If the DTC does not reset there is no further work needed

on the passenger presence system.

Circuit/System Verification

Note:

* This system is serviced as a kit (seat foam, module and sensing mat). Perform a Passenger Presence System Preload procedure whenever a

component is replaced. Refer to Passenger Presence System Preload Test (See: Restraints and Safety Systems/Air Bag Systems/Description

and Operation/Passenger Presence System Preload Test).

* Both SDM and passenger presence module set DTC B0081 but with different symptoms bytes. Therefore it is important to identify which

module has set the DTC B0081. Use the symptom bytes as a way of identify the correct module to diagnose.

* The SDM sets a B0081 3A when an incorrect passenger presence module is installed.

1. Verify that DTC B0081 3A is not set in the SDM.

瀚慖f DTC B0081 3A is set in the SDM, replace the K85 passenger presence module.

Note: The SDM sets a redundant B0081 00 DTC when the passenger presence module sets a DTC B0081 11 or B0081 4B.
