Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The RCM continuously monitors the driver air bag module stage 1 and circuits for the following faults:
- Resistance out of range
- Unexpected voltage
- Short to ground
- Faulted driver air bag module
If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B0001:11, B0001:12, B0001:13 or B0001:1A in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.
The RCM analyzes the deployment loop resistance to determine if a fault exists. The value displayed in the PID is the deployment loop resistance measured by the RCM. If the value displayed is lower or higher than the desired range (refer to diagram below), the RCM can set a DTC. As the deployment loop resistance drifts farther outside the desired range, the chance for a DTC increases. Small variations in resistance can occur due to the effect of road vibrations on terminal fit. Crimps and terminals can be affected by stress and harness movement and can cause an increase in resistance due to wire strain. These variables can result in an intermittent fault. For this reason, the test requires the PID value to be within the desired range before the fault is considered repaired, regardless if the module is reporting an on-demand DTC at the time of diagnosis. Following this direction helps make sure that minor changes in resistance do not create a repeat concern. This test uses process of elimination to diagnose each part of the deployment loop circuit including:
- Wiring
- Connections
- Clockspring
- Driver air bag module
- RCM
-
Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks
- Inspect for damaged wiring harness(es).

Pinpoint Test J: DTCs B007E:11, B007E:12, B007E:13 and B007E:1A
Diagnostic Overview
Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.
Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46, Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The RCM monitors the driver safety belt retractor pretensioner and circuits for the following faults:
- Resistance out of range
- Unexpected voltage
- Short to ground
- Faulted driver safety belt retractor pretensioner
If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B007E:11, B007E:12, B007E:13 or B007E:1A in memory and sends a message to the IPC module to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.
The RCM analyzes the deployment loop resistance to determine if a fault exists. The value displayed in the PID is the deployment loop resistance measured by the RCM. If the value displayed is lower or higher than the desired range (refer to diagram below), the RCM can set a DTC. As the deployment loop resistance drifts farther outside the desired range, the chance for a DTC increases. Small variations in resistance can occur due to the effect of road vibrations on terminal fit. Crimps and terminals can be affected by stress and harness movement and can cause an increase in resistance due to wire strain. These variables can result in an intermittent fault. For this reason, the test requires the PID value to be within the desired range before the fault is considered repaired, regardless if the module is reporting an on-demand DTC at the time of diagnosis. Following this direction helps make sure that minor changes in resistance do not create a repeat concern. This test uses process of elimination to diagnose each part of the deployment loop circuit including:
- Wiring
- Connections
- Driver safety belt retractor pretensioner
- RCM
-
Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks
- Inspect for damaged wiring harness(es).

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46, Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The BTS operates in conjunction with the OCS. The OCS interprets a variable voltage signal provided by the BTS to identify the possible presence of a child safety seat in the front passenger seat. The voltage output of the BTS is proportional to the amount of tension applied to the sensor by the belt: no belt tension causes a low voltage (approximately 0.95 volt) to be output, and high belt tension causes a high voltage (approximately 3.8 volts) to be returned to the OCSM.
The OCSM monitors the BTS and related circuits for the following faults:
- Resistance out of range
- Unexpected voltage
- Short to ground
- Faulted BTS (part of front passenger safety belt buckle)
If a fault is detected, the OCSM stores DTC B0061:11, B0061:12, B0061:13, B0061:1C or B0061:49 in memory and sends a message to the RCM over the HS-CAN indicating that an OCS fault is present.
