AlvinL Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 checked socket B5 for srs and code-221 came up. What does this code mean?B5: 221 - Passenger side air bag short circuit.FAULT CODE 2-1-1, 2-2-1, 2-3-1 Or 2-4-1Conditions For Fault CodeIf OBD unit measures a resistance lower than is normal (1.8-2.5 ohms) for air bag igniter(s) and seat belt tensioners, a fault code will be set.Fault SymptomNone, except illumination of SRS warning light.Fault SourceThere is a short in SRS harness to air bag module(s) and/or seat belt tensioners, connectors or igniter (igniter resistance is too low).Corrective Action1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect battery negative cable. Disconnect connector to suspect air bag module or seat belt tensioner. Connect SRS Special Test Resistor (998 8695). Clear fault codes. Try to retrieve fault codes. See SELF DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If fault code does not display within 15 seconds, replace suspect air bag module or belt tensioner. See REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If fault code does display, go to next step.2) Disconnect test resistor and measure resistance between suspect module or tensioner connector terminals. If resistance is high (40,000 ohms), circuit is okay. If resistance is zero ohms, there is a short in circuit to module or tensioner. Inspect wiring and connectors between crash sensor and suspect module/tensioner and replace as necessary. If fault code 2-1-1 is displayed, also inspect contact reel for short. Ensure steering wheel module is disconnected. Clear fault codes and perform SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK to verify repair and recheck for fault codes.

prasamin Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 if you remove your glovebox, you should be able to feel the bottom of the airbag housing on the pass side, and see if the connector may have gotten disconnectedobviously, you HAVE TO have your battery disconnected for this, otherwise you're risking an airbag in your face.did you try to reset the code to see if it comes back on?

Not an open circuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlvinL Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 The connection was loose and now it is fine.......ThanksWierd! Then it should have read,B5 - 222 for passenger air bag open circuit or capacitance lowPost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prasamin Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 The connection was loose and now it is fine.......Thanks glad you got it fixed. I'm curious to see if that's really the problem and if the light comes back, though it usually comes back IMMEDIATELY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
