Diagnostic Test

    NOTE:

    If the ORC has been replaced the ORC Initialization Procedure must be performed to clear the ORC Unlocked DTC and bring the module to a full state of readiness. Refer to Diagnosis and Testing .

  1. VERIFICATION TEST 
    1. Remove all special tools and jumper wires and reconnect all previously disconnected components - except the battery.
      WARNING:

      Turn the ignition on, then reconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

    2. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector - use the most current software available.
    3. If sent here from an Occupant Classification System (OCS) related diagnostic procedure or if repairs were made to the OCS, perform the AIRBAG SYSTEM VERIFICATION TEST  before proceeding.
    4. With the scan tool erase stored DTC in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
    5. Turn the ignition off, and wait 15 seconds, then turn the ignition on.
    6. Wait one minute, using the scan tool read active ORC DTCs and if there are none present read the stored codes.
    7. If the scan tool shows any active or stored codes, return to the Table of Contents and follow path specified for that trouble code. If no active or stored codes are present, the repair is complete.
