B0001-11-DRIVER FRONTAL SQUIB 1 CONTROL - CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
Fig. 1: Squib Control Circuit Wiring Diagram
Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article .
THEORY OF OPERATION
When powered, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) sends a test current to the squibs to verify the
integrity of the squib and wiring. These circuits are maintained in a floating configuration at the ORC
(connected to neither power or ground) as protection against inadvertent deployment. Use of the Supplemental
Restraints System (SRS) Load Tool Kit (special tool #8443A, SRS Load Tool) in the tests below substitutes a
suspect squib with a known good component. The use of the SRS Load Tool Adaptor provides a test point as
well as a method for opening the shorting bar connections within the ORC harness connector.
WHEN MONITORED:
The ORC Module sends out a 40 mA diagnostic current on each squib voltage supply circuit at power up, and
every 100 ms thereafter while the ignition is on.
SET CONDITION:
This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets when the ORC detects a short to ground on the driver airbag squib
circuit for more than 2.5 seconds. This DTC transitions from active to stored when the ORC sees a recovery
from a short to ground for greater than 2.5 seconds.

B0011-11-PASSENGER FRONTAL SQUIB 2 CONTROL - CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND

THEORY OF OPERATION
When powered the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) sends a test current to the squibs to verify the integrity
of the squib and wiring. These circuits are maintained in a "floating" configuration at the ORC (connected to
neither power or ground) as protection against inadvertent deployment. Use of the Supplemental Restraints
System (SRS) Load Tool Kit (special tool #8443A, SRS Load Tool) in the tests below substitutes a suspect
squib with a known good component. The use of the SRS Load Tool Adapter provides a test point as well as a
method for opening the shorting bar connections within the ORC harness connector.

B212C-13-IGNITION RUN/START INPUT - CIRCUIT OPEN

THEORY OF OPERATION
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) receives power for the Run/Start circuit from the Totally Integrated
Power Module (TIPM) via fuse M16. This circuits power the ORC and the capacitors used to initiate the squib
deployment circuits in the event of collision detection. The use of the Supplemental Restraints System (SRS)
Load Tool Adapter in the tests below provides a test point in place of the ORC harness connectors.
WHEN MONITORED:
The ORC monitors the voltage on the Run/Start and Run circuits and compares their voltage at power up during
the initialization process, and once every 100 ms throughout the ignition cycle.
SET CONDITION:
This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets when the ORC detects the voltage is below 6 volts on the Fused
Ignition Run/Start Control Output circuit for more than 15 seconds while the Fused Ignition Run Control Output
circuit remains less than 9 volts. In the event the ORC detects Run/Start voltage has returned to normal

U0172-00-LOST COMMUNICATION W/ LEFT SIDE SATELLITE SENSOR 1

THEORY OF OPERATION
The location of this left side impact sensor 1 is in the B-pillar just past the first row seating. Refer to
DESCRIPTION . The impact sensors perform their own self test using power supplied by the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) then communicate this status back to the ORC with periodic updates. The repair of
this fault condition involves verifying the integrity of the wiring between the ORC and the sensor. If the scan
tool shows this DTC has a Stored history of setting then the left side impact sensor is to be replaced. A short to
voltage fault on the left side impact sensor 1 sensor wiring can cause a loss of comm impact sensor 2 code to set
and the possible replacement of a good left side impact sensor 2. The left side impact 1, and 2 sensors are wired
in a daisy chain pattern. The short to battery fault in a loss of comm or internal circuit failure of the side impact
sensor 1 can cause the impact sensor 2 on the same side to set a loss of comm code.
WHEN MONITORED:
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) continuously communicates with the Left Side Impact Sensor 1 over
the sensor signal circuit. The sensor communication and on board diagnostics are powered by the ORC signal.
SET CONDITION:
This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set, if the ORC and the Left Side Impact Sensor 1 fail to establish

U11B0-00-LOST COMMUNICATION W/ RIGHT SIDE SATELLITE SENSOR 4

Fig. 168: Right Side Satellite Circuit Wiring Diagram
THEORY OF OPERATION
The sensor 4 impact sensors are located in the first row driver and passenger doors. Impact pressure sensors
perform their own self test using power supplied by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) then
communicate this status back to the ORC. The repair of this fault centers on verifying the integrity of the
sensor's internal circuitry and software validity. A short to voltage fault on the right side impact sensor 2 sensor
wiring can cause a loss of comm impact sensor 4 code to set and the possible replacement of a good right side
impact sensor 4. The right side impact 1, 2, and 4 sensors are wired in a daisy chain pattern. The short to battery
fault in a loss of comm or internal circuit failure of the side impact sensor 1 can cause the impact sensors 2 and
4 on the same side to set a loss of comm code.
WHEN MONITORED:
The ORC continuously communicates with the Right Side Impact Pressure Sensor over the sensor signal circuit.
The sensor communication and on board diagnostics are powered by the ORC signal.
SET CONDITION:
This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set, if the ORC and the Right Side Impact Pressure Sensor do not
establish and maintain valid data communications.
