DTC 65: Passenger-Side Air Bag Module Short To Ground

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Before proceeding, see AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS . Disable air bag system. See DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM . Disconnect passenger-side air bag module connector C-09. See Figure. Connect Load Resistor (MB991865) to Load Resistor Harness (MB991866). Connect load resistor harness to connector C-09 by backprobing connector. Connect negative battery cable. Using scan tool erase, then retrieve DTC's. If DTC 65 is retrieved, go to next step. If DTC 65 is not retrieved, replace passenger-side impact air bag module. See PASSENGER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Go to step  3.
  2. Disconnect SRS ECU connector C-115 and passenger-side air bag module connector C-09. Check for continuity between ground and connector C-115, terminals No. 9 (Yellow/Green wire) and 10 (Yellow/Red wire). If continuity exists, replace wire harness between SRS ECU and passenger-side air bag module. Go to next step. If continuity does not exist, erase, then retrieve DTC's. If DTC 65 is retrieved, replace SRS ECU. See SRS ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (SRS ECU)  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Go to next step.
  3. Reconnect all SRS components. Activate air bag system. Using scan tool retrieve DTC's. If DTC 65 is retrieved, go to step  1. If DTC 65 is not retrieved, system is normal at this time. Intermittent condition may exist.
