B1B02-DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN

For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.

- When Monitored:

With the ignition on.

- Set Condition:

The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) monitors the resistance of the Driver Squib 1 circuits. The ORC will set this DTC if it detects an open or
high resistance on the Driver Squib 1 circuits.

Diagnostic Test

1. DETERMINE ACTIVE OR STORED DTC

NOTE: Ensure that the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: The scan tool, SRS Airbag Load Tool MRL 8443, and DVOM are required to perform the following test.

Turn the ignition on.

Select ACTIVE or STORED DTC:

ACTIVE DTC

- Go To 2

STORED DTC

- Go To 6

2. CHECK FOR OPEN SQUIB CIRCUITS IN DRIVER AIRBAG

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Disconnect the Driver Airbag Squib connectors.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, do not place an intact undeployed airbag face down on a hard surface, the airbag will propel
into the air if accidentally deployed.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

Connect the 8443 Load Tool and 8443-1 Jumper to the Driver Airbag Squib connectors.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition on, then reconnect the battery.

With the scan tool, read the active ORC DTCs.

Does the scan tool display: B1B02-DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Replace the Driver Airbag.

- Perform AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. See: Verification Tests/Airbag System Verification Test

3. CHECK STEERING CONTROL MODULE (CLOCKSPRING) SQUIB CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Disconnect the 8443 Load Tool and Jumper from the Driver Airbag Squib connectors.

Disconnect the Steering Control Module C4 connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

Connect the 8443 Load Tool and 8443-19 Jumper to the Steering Control Module C4 connector.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition on, then reconnect the battery.

With the scan tool, read the active ORC DTCs.

Does the scan tool display: B1B02-DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Replace the Steering Control Module.

- Perform AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. See: Verification Tests/Airbag System Verification Test

4. CHECK (R43) DRIVER SQUIB 1 LINE 2 CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Disconnect the 8443 Load Tool and Jumper from the Steering Control Module C4 connector.

Disconnect the ORC connectors.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean and repair as necessary.

Connect the 8443-25 ORC 8443-25 Adaptor to the ORC connectors.

Measure the resistance of the (R43) Driver Squib 1 Line 2 circuit between the Steering Control Module C4 connector cavity 4 and the 8443-25 ORC
Adaptor cavity 24-17.

Is the resistance below 1.0 ohm?

Yes

- Go To 5

No

- Repair the R43 Driver Squib 1 Line 2 circuit for an open.

- Perform AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. See: Verification Tests/Airbag System Verification Test

5. CHECK (R45) DRIVER SQUIB 1 LINE 1 CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

2007 Dodge Caliber L4-2.0L VIN B Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52SS Page 6

Measure the resistance of the (R45) Driver Squib 1 Line 1 circuit between the Steering Control Module C4 connector and the 8443-25 ORC
Adaptor.

Is the resistance below 1.0 ohm?

Yes

-
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.
- Replace the ORC.
- Perform AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. See: Verification Tests/Airbag System Verification Test

No

- Repair the (R45) Driver Squib 1 Line 1 circuit for an open.

- Perform AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. See: Verification Tests/Airbag System Verification Test

6. CHECKING STORED OR INTERMITTENT CODES

NOTE: Diagnose and repair all active codes before diagnosing stored codes.

With the scan tool, record and erase all Airbag System Module DTCs.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition off, disconnect the battery and wait two minutes before proceeding.

Using the wiring diagram / schematic as a guide, inspect the related wiring and connectors for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires,
2007 Dodge Caliber L4-2.0L VIN B Copyright © 2013, ALLDATA 10.52SS Page 7

and for broken, bent, pushed out, corroded, and contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.

Reconnect all disconnected components and harness connectors.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, turn the ignition on, then reconnect the battery.

With the scan tool, monitor for active codes while performing the following:
- Wiggle the wiring harness and connectors of the related airbag circuit.
- Continue the test until either a code becomes active or the problem area is isolated.

In the previous steps you have attempted to recreate the conditions responsible for setting the DTC in question / causing the intermittent condition.

Are any ACTIVE DTCs present?

Yes

- Select the appropriate diagnostic procedure.

No

- No problem found at this time. Erase all codes before returning the vehicle to the customer.
