Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Refer to SIR SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
When removing connectors, inspect for damage or corrosion. Damage or corrosion in the following requires repair or replacement of the affected component/connector:
  • The side impact sensor
  • The SDM module
  • The side impact sensor wiring harness connector
  • The SDM wiring harness connector
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate side impact sensor connector.
  2. Disconnect the harness connector at the SDM.
  3. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the side impact sensor high circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.
  4. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the side impact sensor low circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.
  5. Test for infinite resistance between the side impact sensor high circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If less than infinite resistance, test the circuit for a short to ground.
  6. Test for less then 1 ohm between the following side impact sensor high circuit terminals.
    • Right side impact sensor terminal B and SDM harness connector terminal 43.
    • Left side impact sensor terminal B and SDM harness connector terminal 42.
      • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.
  7. Test for less then 1 ohm between the following side impact sensor low circuit terminals.
    • Right side impact sensor terminal A and SDM harness connector terminal 41.
    • Left side impact sensor terminal A and SDM harness connector terminal 40.
      • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.
  8. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate side impact sensor.
  9. Reconnect all SIR components. Ignition ON, with a scan tool clear and recheck for DTCs.
    • If the side impact sensor DTC returns and is current, replace the SDM.
