What does this fault code mean?
The supplemental restraint system module (SRS) monitors the ignition cable to the passenger airbag, stage 1. If the resistance is too high for a longer period, the fault code is stored. The fault is an open circuit or poor contact resistance in the cable or connectors, or an open circuit in the airbag itself.
Possible causes
- Open circuit or poor contact resistance in the ignition cable or connectors between the SRS module and the passenger airbag, stage 1
- Open circuit in the passenger airbag, stage 1, giving too high resistance in the igniter
What you can do
- 1Read the code, clear it and road test the car to see whether it comes back
- 2Have a workshop check the connectors to the passenger airbag and the SRS module, and the other connectors on the ignition cable, for contact resistance, oxidation and loose connections
- 3Have a workshop check that the ignition cable between the SRS module and the passenger airbag has no open circuit
- 4Do not touch the airbag system's wiring yourself; a workshop should carry out the check and repairs
