B2293

Pinpoint Test H: LFC 19 and 21/DTC B2293 - Restraint System Airbag Status
Normal Operation
The restraints control module (RCM) checks all of the front air bag circuits for faults. If the RCM detects one of the following faults on any of the front air bag circuits, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2293 in memory and, depending on the fault, flash either lamp fault code (LFC) 19 or 21 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.
Fault Conditions
The RCM monitors for the following fault conditions:

• low resistance.
• circuit open.
• circuit short to voltage.
• circuit short to ground.

Possible Causes
A driver air bag status fault can be caused by:

• damaged wiring, terminals, or connectors.
• a faulty clockspring.
• a faulty driver air bag module.
• RCM is faulted.

A passenger air bag status fault can be caused by:

• damaged wiring, terminals, or connectors.
• a faulty passenger air bag module.
• RCM is faulted.

21 Restraint System - Air Bag Status (Passenger Front Air Bag Circuit Fault) Go To Pinpoint Test H .

• B0041

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The inflatable restraint side impact module-LF deployment loop consists of the inflatable restraint side impact module-LF, the inflatable restraint side impact module wiring harness, and the side impact module-LF high and low circuits. A shorting bar used within the side impact module-LF connector shorts together the side impact module-LF high and low circuits when the connector is disconnected. This helps 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) allows current to flow through the deployment loop in order to deploy the side impact module-LF. When the ignition is turned ON, 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.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
Ignition 1 voltage is within the normal operating voltage range.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC

• DTC B0040 will set when the side impact module-LF deployment loop resistance is less than 1.3 ohms for 500 milliseconds .
• DTC B0041 will set when one of the following conditions occurs:
• Side impact module-LF high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and the side impact module-LF deployment loop is more than 6 ohms for 500 milliseconds .
• Side impact module-LF deployment loop resistance is more than 4.8 ohms for 500 milliseconds .
• DTC B0045 will set when one of the following conditions occur:
• Side impact module-LF high and/or low circuits is short to ground or short to voltage for 500 milliseconds .
• Side impact module-LF high circuit is less than 2.4 volts and side impact module-LF 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

• The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool Clear DTCs function is used.
• A history DTC will clear once 255 malfunction free ignition cycles have occurred.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
The following are possible causes of the malfunction:

• A short between the side impact module-LF high and low circuits
• An open or a high resistance in the side impact module-LF high or low circuits
• A short to ground or a short to voltage in the side impact module-LF high or low circuits
• The side impact module-LF connector
• The SDM connector
• A malfunctioning side impact module-LF
• A malfunctioning SDM

Hope helps (remember rated this).

Sounds as if you are low on freon.

Usually it's an air leak in the intake and /or exhaust that throws fuel trim off.Bad/dirty injectors are the 2nd common cause.

I will check the shop manual, but the module does control ride for stiffness, increased stiffness at higher speeds, etc. If the bags are inflated, then the module cintrols how much air to allow in or out based on inputs to the module. See if you can get one from a salvage yard form a cash for clunkers car.

A dealer can run a test for fault codes in the computer. Call and ask how much for just a scan for fault codes in the air suspension module.

-----------------------------
Vehicle Dynamic Suspension The vehicle dynamic suspension consists of the following components:

• Rear air suspension control (RAS) module (5A919)
• Snorkel
• Drier
• Air compressor (5319)
• Air suspension switch (5K761)
• Solenoid valve (5311)
• Air spring (5560)
• Air suspension height sensor (5359)
• Air line

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rear Air Suspension Control Module
A microprocessor controls the air suspension system. The microprocessor and its supporting hardware are contained in the rear air suspension control module. The rear air suspension control module responds to signals from various sensors in the vehicle to maintain the programmed ride height while the vehicle is either moving or stopped. The rear air suspension control module accomplishes this by opening and closing solenoid valves to control the amount of air in the air spring(s). The rear air suspension control module turns on the compressor by applying voltage through the compressor relay to inflate the air spring(s) and raise the vehicle. The rear air suspension control module opens the vent solenoid to lower the vehicle by releasing air from the air spring(s) in response to signal inputs from the air suspension height sensor(s).
Air Suspension Switch
CAUTION: The air suspension switch must be turned to the OFF position when the vehicle is hoisted, jacked, towed, jump started, or raised off the ground, to avoid unnecessary operation of the system and possible damage to the air suspension system components.
The air suspension switch provides a signal to the rear air suspension control module in the ON position to activate the system to maintain the programmed vehicle height.
Air Compressor
NOTE: The compressor contains a thermal overload circuit breaker. The circuit breaker automatically resets after a cool down period and after being tripped by excessive compressor motor heat.
The air compressor assembly consists of the compressor pump, electric motor and vent solenoid (must be installed as an assembly).
Air Suspension Height Sensor
The air suspension height sensor sends signals to the air suspension control module. There are three possible conditions that the air suspension control module interprets from the signals of the air suspension height sensors. The conditions are trim height, below trim height, or above trim height.
Solenoid Valve, Air Spring
WARNING: Never rotate an air spring solenoid valve to the release slot in the air spring end cap fitting until all pressurized air has escaped from the air spring to prevent vehicle damage or personal injury.
The air spring solenoid valve allows air to enter and exit the rear air springs during height adjustment operations. The air spring solenoid valve is electrically operated and controlled by the air suspension control module.
Steering Sensor
The steering sensor provides the steering rate and position to the air suspension control module to avoid overcompensation of the air suspension during turns.
Inspection and Verification

1. Verify the customer concern.

1. NOTE: If the door ajar indicator is illuminated, repair the door ajar indicator. For additional information, refer to Section 413-09 .
