Applies to the following models:
5 modelsS60 (2001–2009), S80 (1999–2006), V70 (2000–2008), V70 XC / XC70 (2001–2007), XC90 (2003–)
What does this fault code mean?
This fault is intermittent, meaning it comes and goes. The SRS module has for a while measured a resistance that is too high in the circuit to the front left seat belt tensioner. The cause may be contact resistance or an open-circuit in the wire, or an open-circuit in the tensioner itself.
Possible causes
- Contact resistance, or an open-circuit in the wire between the tensioner and the SRS module
- An open-circuit in the tensioner itself, which makes the igniter read too high a resistance
What you can do
- 1Read out and note the fault code, clear it, and test drive to see if it returns
- 2Have a workshop check the connectors for poor contact and oxidation
- 3The workshop checks the cable for an open-circuit and replaces the belt tensioner if needed
- 4The tensioners are part of the restraint system; do not take any measurements on them yourself
Symptoms you may notice1
