DTC B0061, B0062, OR B0068 Circuit Description



DTC B0061, B0062, OR B0068 Circuit Description
The driver roof rail deployment loop consists of the following components:
l An inflatable restraint side impact module -Left l The roof rail impact module -Left high circuit


l The roof rail impact module -Left low circuit
A shorting bar used within the roof rail module connector will short together both roof side rail module -left high and low circuits, when the connector is disconnected. This will help to prevent unwanted deployment of the inflator module during servicing. During a side or frontal crash of sufficient force, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) will allow current to flow through the deployment loop, in order to deploy the roof side rail module. The SDM performs continuous diagnostic tests on the deployment loops to check for proper circuit continuity, and for shorts to ground or voltage. If a malfunction is detected, a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) will be stored in memory.
DTC Descriptors
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:
l DTC B0061 Left Front Roof Rail Deployment Loop Resistance Low l DTC B0062 Left Front Roof Rail Deployment Loop Open l DTC B0068 Left Front Roof Rail Deployment Loop Voltage Out of Range
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition 1 voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
l DTC B0061 will set when the roof rail module -left deployment loop resistance is less than 1.3 ohms for 500 milliseconds. l DTC B0062 will set when one of the following conditions occurs: . Roof rail module -left high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and the roof rail module -left deployment loop is more than 6 ohms for 500 milliseconds. . Roof rail module -left deployment loop resistance is more than 4.8 ohms for 500 milliseconds. l DTC B0068 when one of the following conditions occur: . Roof rail module -left high and/or low circuits is short to ground or short to voltage for 500 milliseconds.
. Roof rail module -left high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and roof rail module -left deployment loop resistance is less than 6 ohms for 500 milliseconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The SDM commands the AIR BAG indicator ON via class 2 serial data.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
l The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool Clear DTCs function is used.


l A history DTC will clear once 255 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.
Diagnostic Aids
The following are possible causes of the malfunction:
l A short between the roof rail module -left high and low circuits. l An open or a high resistance in the roof rail module -left high or low circuits. l A short to ground or a short to voltage in the roof rail module -left high or low
circuits. l The roof rail module -left connector l The SDM connector l A malfunctioning roof rail module -left l A malfunctioning SDM
Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction. If an intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
4: This step tests to see if the malfunction is caused by the roof rail module -left.
6: This step tests to see what DTCs are present. If DTC B0061 is present, test the roof rail module -left for a short between high and low circuits. If DTC B0062 is present, test the roof rail module -left high and low circuits for an open and for high resistance. If DTC B0068 is present, test the roof rail module -left high and low circuits for a short to ground and for a short to voltage.

corrosion that may cause the malfunction. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Does connector exhibits any signs of damage or corrosion?
1. If the in-line connector for the roof rail module -left is damaged, the roof rail module -left must be replaced. Refer to Inflatable Restraint Roof Rail Module Replacement -Left Side.
2. If the wiring harness side of the roof rail module -left connector is damaged, replace the harness side of the connector. Refer to Connector Repairs .

Did you complete the repair?
IMPORTANT: If scan tool displays multiple codes, diagnose the open code first.
1. Connect the J 38715-A SIR Driver/Passenger Load Tool to the harness side of the roof rail module -left connector. Use passenger inflator connector.
2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
3. With the scan tool, request the SIR DTC display.

Does the scan tool indicate that DTC B0061, B0062, or B0068 are current?
1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Disconnect and remove the J 38715-A .
3. Disconnect the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) connector. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
4. Inspect the SDM connector for damage or corrosion that may cause a malfunction in the roof rail module -left high and/or low circuits. Refer
