What does this fault code mean?
The airbag control module (SRS) monitors the voltage to the passenger seat track position sensor. The fault is stored when the voltage is either too high or missing altogether. The cause can be a wire that has come into contact with voltage, an open circuit in the wire, or contact problems in the connections.
Possible causes
- Wire short-circuited to voltage
- Short circuit in the connections
- Open circuit in the wire
- Contact resistance or oxidation in the connections
What you can do
- 1Read and note the code, clear it and see whether it comes back
- 2Have a workshop go through the connectors from the module to the sensor, including any others in the run, for loose contact, oxidation and contact resistance
- 3Have a workshop test the wire for an open circuit and for a short to voltage
- 4Have a workshop correct the fault and confirm the code does not come back
- 5Do not work on the airbag system yourself; have a workshop carry out the check and the repair
