Airbag Warning Lamp – Front Side Airbag Pressure Sensor Interruption/ Short to B+ Note: The condition as described does not affect airbag operation. Airbag Warning Lamp Illuminated in Instrument Cluster and one or more of the following DTCs are stored in the airbag control module: DTC Description B101715 Driver's side airbag pressure sensor Interruption/short-circuit to B+ B103615 Passenger's side airbag pressure sensor Interruption/short-circuit to B+ Technical Background The Airbag Lamp in the Instrument Cluster may illuminate due to an unsecured electrical connection at the Driver (G179) or Passenger (G180) Airbag Pressure Sensor located in the front door. This condition could also be caused by an unsecured electrical connection at the inline connector between the Airbag Pressure Sensor and the Airbag Module (T28 or T28A) located in the A-Pillar. It is critical to ensure there are no connector or terminal concerns before suspecting the G179 or G180 Airbag Pressure Sensors. If the DTC B101715 and/or B103615 are present, check for any additional DTCs in the Airbag Module. If there are additional DTCs present such as faults for Outside Mirror Turn Signal Electrical Malfunction, Front Door Warning lamp Electrical Malfunction, Door Control Module, Bass Speaker, or Lock Unit for Central Locking, perform a visual inspection of the T28 and/or T28A connectors in the A-Pillar area.
