SECTION 501-20B: Supplemental Restraint System	2014 Flex Workshop Manual
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING	Procedure revision date: 05/02/2013

Airbag and Safety Belt Pretensioner Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)

Principles of Operation

The RCM continuously receives/monitors all inputs from the following SRS components:

LH and RH front impact severity sensors
Driver and passenger front door side impact sensors
Driver and passenger C-pillar side impact sensors
Safety belt buckle switches (driver and passenger)
LH and RH second row safety belt buckle switches (if equipped with second row inflatable safety belts)
Driver seat track position sensor
OCSM

If the RCM detects sudden vehicle deceleration and/or lateral deceleration based on information received from sensors and switches and determines that deployment is required, the RCM sends voltage and current to deploy the appropriate SRS components.

The RCM contains an internal sensor that detects vehicle rollover angles. If the RCM determines that a rollover condition exists and deployment is required, the RCM deploys the applicable SRS components.

During a frontal or side crash, the RCM may deploy the following SRS components, based on crash severity and sensor input.

Safety belt retractor pretensioner (driver only)
Safety belt adaptive load limiting retractor (front passenger only)
Safety belt buckle pretensioner(s)
Safety Canopy®
Seat side air bag(s)
Driver and passenger dual-stage air bags (one or both stages)
Deployable steering column
Second row inflatable safety belt(s) (if equipped)

The fact that the safety belt buckle pretensioner(s), safety belt retractor(s) or air bags did not activate for both front seat occupants in a crash does not mean that something is wrong with the SRS . Similarly, if the vehicle is equipped with inflatable safety belts, the fact that the inflatable safety belt(s) did not activate for both second row seat occupants in a crash does not mean that something is wrong with the SRS .

The RCM performs a self-test of the complete SRS during each startup. If a SRS fault exists, the air bag warning indicator will illuminate and remain illuminated for the rest of the ignition cycle. In addition to the self-test at start up, the RCM continuously monitors all of its SRS components and circuitry for correct operation.

Air Bag Module Second Stage Deployment Check

Because the driver and passenger front air bags each have 2 deployment stages, it is possible that stage 1 has deployed and stage 2 has not.

If a front air bag module has deployed, it is mandatory that the front air bag module be remotely deployed using the appropriate air bag disposal procedure.

For information on driver air bag module and/or passenger air bag module remote deployment, refer to Pyrotechnic Device Disposal in this section.

Air Bag Warning Indicator

The air bag warning indicator:

located in the IPC , proves out by lighting for 6 seconds and then turn off.
flashes and/or illuminates based on the message the IPC receives from the RCM .
illuminates if the IPC does not receive a message from the RCM .

Clockspring

The clockspring allows for continuous electrical connections between the driver air bag module and the RCM when the steering wheel is turned.

Driver Air Bag Module

The driver air bag module is a dual-stage air bag, upon receiving a flow of current from the RCM , deploying at 1 of 2 different rates depending upon vehicle impact severity and sensor input.

Event Notification Signal

The purpose of the deployment event notification feature is to provide other vehicle subsystems with information pertaining to restraint system deployment or fuel cutoff status. Signal communication between the RCM and fuel pump control module allows the PCM to initiate fuel cut-off to disable the fuel system in the event of a crash.

High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN)

This vehicle utilizes a communication system called a HS-CAN . The RCM communicates with various modules for required information about the vehicle. Refer to Section 418-00 for information about the HS-CAN .

Inflatable Safety Belts (if equipped)

Refer to Description and Operation in Section 501-20A .

Impact Sensors

For this vehicle line, the SRS uses 6 satellite sensors in addition to the RCM . The RCM is mounted to the center tunnel beneath the console. All vehicles have 2 front impact severity sensors located in the front of the vehicle. The first row impact sensors are mounted to each front door behind the trim panel, the second row sensors are located on each C-pillar. Mounting orientation is critical for correct operation of all impact sensors.

Occupant Classification System (OCS)

The OCS is found only on the front passenger seat. The OCS classifies the size of the front passenger seat occupant and provides this information to the RCM . The RCM uses this information (and other inputs) in determining the deployment strategy of the passenger air bag and pretensioner. The OCS is comprised of an OCSM and 2 OCS weight sensor bolts that are mounted to each end of the inboard seat track rail and are serviced as an assembly with the seat track. The OCSM is mounted to an electrical bracket underneath the seat and can be serviced separately. The OCSM sends information concerning the weight of any occupant or object on the front passenger seat to the RCM via HS-CAN . The RCM uses this information in determining if the passenger air bag module is to be deployed in the event of a crash.

The OCS is also used for operation of the passenger Belt-Minder®. For information on the passenger Belt-Minder® feature, refer to Section 501-20A . To deactivate or reactivate the passenger Belt-Minder® feature, refer to Section 413-01 or the Owner's Literature.

Belt Tension Sensor (BTS)

The BTS :

is a 3-wire Hall-effect sensor and is part of the front passenger safety belt and retractor assembly.
is used in conjunction with the OCS .

The BTS is used to identify the presence of a child safety seat on the front passenger seat. The BTS senses the tension on the safety belt then provides an output to the OCSM , indicating that the safety belt is cinched. After sensing the weight applied to the seat or using BTS input, the OCSM determines how the occupant should be classified and communicates this information to the RCM . If the occupant is classified as a child, the RCM then automatically deactivates the passenger air bag module and illuminates the PAD indicator.

Passenger Air Bag Deactivation (PAD) Indicator

The RCM controls the state of the PAD indicator via the HS-CAN and I-CAN . The PAD indicator state is based on information that the OCS provides to the RCM . When the passenger air bag is activated, the PAD indicator displays ON. If the RCM has deactivated the passenger air bag, the PAD indicator displays OFF.

When the ignition is first turned ON, the RCM briefly activates both the ON and OFF LEDs in the PAD indicator to prove out the indicator function and verify proper operation of the PAD indicator to the front occupants.

The following table indicates the passenger air bag and PAD indicator status based on the size of the front passenger seat occupant.

Passenger Air Bag and Passenger Air Bag Deactivation (PAD) Indicator Status

Occupant Size	Passenger Safety Belt Buckle Status	Passenger Air Bag Status	PAD Indicator Status
Empty	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Disabled	OFF: Lit
Empty	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Disabled	ON: Unlit
Small	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Disabled	OFF: Lit
Small	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Disabled	ON: Unlit
Large	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Enabled	OFF: Unlit
Large	Buckled/ Unbuckled	Enabled	ON: Lit

Passenger Air Bag Module

The passenger air bag module is a dual-stage air bag, deploying at 1 of 2 different rates depending upon vehicle impact severity and sensor input.

Restraints Control Module (RCM)

WARNING: Do not handle, move or change the original horizontal mounting position of the restraints control module (RCM) while the RCM is connected and the ignition switch is ON. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the Safety Canopy and cause serious personal injury or death.

WARNING: If a vehicle has been in a crash, inspect the restraints control module (RCM) and the impact sensor (if equipped) mounting areas for deformation. If damaged, restore the mounting areas to the original production configuration. A new RCM and sensors must be installed whether or not the airbags have deployed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury or death in a crash.

NOTE: This vehicle is equipped with the SYNC® feature which contains the 911 assist option. Refer to the Owner's Literature.

The RCM carries out the following functions:

Deploys the air bag(s)/Safety Canopy® in the event of a deployable collision
Activates the safety belt buckle pretensioners to remove slack from the safety belt in the event of a crash
Activates the driver safety belt retractor pretensioner to remove slack from the safety belt in the event of a crash
Activates the front passenger adaptive load limiting retractor to control the tension of the front passenger safety belt in the event of a crash
Monitors the SRS for faults
Sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator if a fault is detected

The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected, the RCM sends a request to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator. When the ignition is turned OFF and then ON, the IPC proves out the air bag warning indicator by lighting for 6 seconds. If no faults are detected by the RCM , the IPC turns the air bag warning indicator off and it remains off. If the RCM detects a fault, it sends a message to the IPC to turn the air bag warning indicator on. The air bag warning indicator then stays on for the rest of the ignition cycle. If the RCM requests illumination of the air bag warning indicator and the air bag warning indicator does not function, the IPC automatically activates an audible chime.

The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is lost or damaged during impact. The backup power supply depletes its stored energy approximately one minute after power and/or ground has been removed from the RCM .

Safety Belt Buckle Pretensioners and Safety Belt Retractor Pretensioners

The safety belt buckle pretensioners (driver and front passenger positions) and safety belt retractor pretensioner (driver position only) remove excess slack from the safety belt webbing. The pretensioners are activated by the RCM when the module detects a crash event force exceeding a programmed limit.

Safety Belt Buckle Switches

The safety belt buckles are comprised of integrated circuits called Hall-effect switches. The safety belt buckle switches indicate to the RCM whether the safety belts are buckled or unbuckled.

The RCM also communicates the driver safety belt buckle switch status to the IPC , which monitors the information to control the safety belt warning indicator. For information on the safety belt warning indicator, refer to Section 413-01 .

Safety Belt Adaptive Load Limiting Retractor

The front passenger safety belt retractor is equipped with the adaptive load limiting feature that works in conjunction with the safety belt buckle pretensioner to control the tension of the front passenger safety belt in the event of a crash. The front passenger safety belt retractor is also referred to as the seatbelt load limiter.

Safety Canopy® Module

WARNING: Anytime the Safety Canopy® or side air curtain module has deployed, a new headliner and new A-, B-, C- and D-pillar upper trim panels and attaching hardware must be installed. Remove any other damaged components and hardware and install new components and hardware as needed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in the Safety Canopy® or side air curtain module deploying incorrectly and increases the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.

The Safety Canopy® module:

is mounted above the headliner.
attaches from the A-pillar frame to the D-pillar frame.

Seat Side Air Bag Module

The side air bag module:

deploys upon receiving current flow from the RCM , initiated by the RCM .
is mounted in the seat backrest.
is used in conjunction with a Safety Canopy® module.

Seat Track Position Sensor

The seat track position sensor is a Hall-effect sensor which indicates the position of the seat along the seat track to the RCM . The sensor detects the presence of a shunt bracket on the track, indicating that the seat has moved past a certain point in the range of adjustment. The RCM uses this information in determining the deployment rate of the dual-stage driver air bag module.

Secondary Air Bag Warning (Chime)

The secondary air bag warning chime is an audible chime located in and controlled by the IPC . If a fault is detected with the air bag warning indicator, a DTC is stored in memory of the IPC . Upon receiving the message from the RCM that a SRS fault has been detected, the IPC sounds the secondary air bag warning chime in a pattern of 5 sets of 5 beeps.

Inspection and Verification

Verify the customer concern by checking the air bag warning indicator in the IPC . Refer to Prove Out the System in this section.

Pinpoint Test

Pinpoint Test A: DTCs B0001:11, B0001:12, B0001:13 and B0001:1A

Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46 , Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The RCM continuously monitors the driver air bag module stage 1 and circuits for the following faults:

Resistance out of range
Unexpected voltage
Short to ground
Faulted driver air bag module

If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B0001:11, B0001:12, B0001:13 or B0001:1A in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

The RCM analyzes the deployment loop resistance to determine if a fault exists. The value displayed in the PID is the deployment loop resistance measured by the RCM . If the value displayed is lower or higher than the desired range (refer to diagram below), the RCM can set a DTC. As the deployment loop resistance drifts farther outside the desired range, the chance for a DTC increases. Small variations in resistance can occur due to the effect of road vibrations on terminal fit. Crimps and terminals can be affected by stress and harness movement and can cause an increase in resistance due to wire strain. These variables can result in an intermittent fault. For this reason, the test requires the PID value to be within the desired range before the fault is considered repaired, regardless if the module is reporting an on-demand DTC at the time of diagnosis. Following this direction helps make sure that minor changes in resistance do not create a repeat concern. This test uses process of elimination to diagnose each part of the deployment loop circuit including:

Wiring
Connections
Clockspring
Driver air bag module
RCM

DTC	Description	Fault Trigger Condition
B0001:11	Driver Frontal Stage 1 Deployment Control: Circuit Short to Ground	When the RCM senses a short to ground on either driver air bag stage 1 circuit, a fault will be indicated.
B0001:12	Driver Frontal Stage 1 Deployment Control: Circuit Short to Battery	When the RCM senses a short to voltage on either driver air bag stage 1 circuit, a fault will be indicated.
B0001:13	Driver Frontal Stage 1 Deployment Control: Circuit Open	When the RCM measures greater than the desired resistance range between driver air bag stage 1 circuits, a fault will be indicated.
B0001:1A	Driver Frontal Stage 1 Deployment Control: Circuit Resistance Below Threshold	When the RCM measures less than the desired resistance range between driver air bag stage 1 circuits, a fault will be indicated.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

Wiring, terminals or connectors
Clockspring
Driver air bag module
RCM

PINPOINT TEST A: DTCs B0001:11, B0001:12, B0001:13 AND B0001:1A

WARNING: Never probe the electrical connectors on airbag, Safety Canopy or side air curtain assemblies. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of these assemblies, which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.

NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) from the Flex Probe Kit when taking measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

NOTE: Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough inspection and verification before proceeding with the pinpoint test.

NOTE: Only disconnect or reconnect Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS .

NOTE: Always make sure the correct SRS component is being installed. Parts released for other vehicles may not be compatible even if they appear physically similar. Check the part number listed in the parts catalog to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS component is installed, DTCs may set.

NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.

Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46 , Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The RCM monitors all deployable device and sensor circuits for a signal cross coupled (short) fault between circuits. If the RCM detects a short between the circuits of one device and another device, it stores a DTC for each of the signal cross coupled faults in memory. The RCM sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator. Signal cross coupled diagnostics are not active when a normal loop fault is present (for example, if one loop is either shorted to battery/ground or has an open circuit or low resistance). Signal cross coupled diagnostics resume once the normal loop fault is repaired.

Pinpoint Test AC: DTCs U0028:08 and U0028:88

Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 42 , Vehicle Dynamic Systems for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The RCM supplies the stability/traction control system with the yaw rate, roll rate, lateral and longitudinal accelerometer data over a dedicated CAN bus. If the RCM detects a fault with communications with the ABS module or the dedicated CAN bus circuits, it sets DTC U0028:08 or U0028:88.

The RCM does not request the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator if either DTC U0028:08 or U0028:88 is set.

DTC U0028:08 (Vehicle Communication Bus A: Bus Signal / Message Failures) — A fault is indicated when the RCM does not receive dedicated CAN bus messages from the ABS module for 5 seconds. An open dedicated CAN circuit, incorrectly installed ABS module or loss of power and/or ground to the ABS module can set this DTC.
DTC U0028:88 (Vehicle Communication Bus A: Bus Off) — A fault is indicated when the RCM detects the dedicated CAN circuits are shorted to ground, shorted to voltage or shorted to each other.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

Wiring, terminals or connectors
RCM
ABS module

PINPOINT TEST AC: DTCs U0028:08 AND U0028:88

NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) from the Flex Probe Kit when taking measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

NOTE: Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough inspection and verification before proceeding with the pinpoint test.

NOTE: Always make sure the correct SRS component is being installed. Parts released for other vehicles may not be compatible even if they appear physically similar. Check the part number listed in the parts catalog to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS component is installed, DTCs may set.

The battery may become discharged due to excessive load(s) on the charging system from aftermarket accessories or if the battery has been left unattended with the accessories on.

Normal Operation — RCM

The RCM continuously monitors the input voltage for correct operation. If the RCM detects input voltage below 9.5 volts, it stores DTC U3003:16 in memory. If the RCM detects input voltage above 16 volts, it stores DTC U3003:17 in memory. If the RCM sets DTC U3003:16 or U3003:17, it sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

Normal Operation — OCSM

The OCSM continuously monitors the input voltage for correct operation. If the OCSM detects input voltage below 9.6 volts when another OCS fault is present, or if the OCSM detects voltage below 7.6 volts, regardless of fault status, it stores DTC U3003:16 in memory. If the OCSM detects input voltage above 16.5 volts when another OCS fault is present, or if the OCSM detects voltage above 18.5 volts, it stores DTC U3003:17 in memory. If the OCSM sets DTC U3003:16 or U3003:17, it sends a fault message to the RCM . The RCM then sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

DTC	Description	Fault Trigger Condition
U3003:16	Battery Voltage: Circuit Voltage Below Threshold	If the RCM detects voltage below 9.5 volts with a SRS fault, it sets this DTC.

Pinpoint Test AE: DTCs B0061:11, B0061:12, B0061:13 and B0061:1C

Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46 , Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The BTS operates in conjunction with the OCS . The OCS interprets a variable voltage signal provided by the BTS to identify the possible presence of a child safety seat in the front passenger seat. The voltage output of the BTS is proportional to the amount of tension applied to the sensor by the belt. No tension outputs a low voltage (approximately 0.95 volt), and high tension outputs a high voltage (approximately 3.8 volts), in relation to the reference voltage.

The OCSM monitors the BTS and related circuits for the following faults:

Resistance out of range
Unexpected voltage
Short to ground
Faulted BTS (part of passenger safety belt retractor)

If a fault is detected, the OCSM stores DTC B0061:11, B0061:12, B0061:13 or B0061:1C in memory and sends a message to the RCM , which stores DTC B00A0:09 or B00A0:68 in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

DTC	Description	Fault Trigger Condition
B0061:11	Passenger Seatbelt Tension Sensor: Circuit Short to Ground	A fault is indicated if the BTS VREF circuit is open or if the BTS signal circuit is shorted to ground. An internally-shorted BTS can also set this DTC. This DTC is detected by calculating the ratio of the measured BTS signal divided by the BTS VREF value. If the ratio equals less than .1, this DTC sets.
B0061:12	Passenger Seatbelt Tension Sensor: Circuit Short to Battery	A fault is indicated when the BTS signal circuit is shorted to battery voltage or BTS VREF. An open BTS return circuit also sets this DTC. This DTC is detected by calculating the ratio of the measured BTS signal divided by the BTS VREF value. If the ratio equals greater than .9, this DTC sets.
B0061:13	Passenger Seatbelt Tension Sensor: Circuit Open	A fault is indicated when the OCSM measures resistance above a calibrated threshold on the BTS signal circuit.
B0061:1C	Passenger Seatbelt Tension Sensor: Circuit Voltage Out of Range	A fault is indicated when the OCSM measures greater than 2.0 volts on the BTS signal circuit while the passenger safety belt is not buckled.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

Wiring, terminals or connectors
BTS (part of the front passenger safety belt retractor)
OCSM

Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Section 100-00 for information about these practices.

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46 , Supplemental Restraint System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation

The OCSM monitors OCS weight sensor bolt "D" and circuitry for faults. If the OCSM detects a fault, it stores DTC B00C3:12, B00C3:13 or B00C3:1A in memory and sends a message to the RCM , which stores DTC B00A0:09 in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the air bag warning indicator.

DTC B00C3:12 (Passenger Seat Occupant Classification Sensor "D": Circuit Short To Battery) — A fault is indicated when the OCSM measures voltage on the OCS weight sensor bolt "D" signal circuit above 4.85 volts. An open sensor return circuit also sets this DTC.
DTC B00C3:13 (Passenger Seat Occupant Classification Sensor "D": Circuit Open) — A fault is indicated when the OCSM measures resistance above a calibrated threshold on the OCS weight sensor bolt "D" signal circuit.
DTC B00C3:1A (Passenger Seat Occupant Classification Sensor "D": Circuit Resistance Below Threshold) — A fault is indicated when the OCSM measures resistance below a calibrated threshold on the OCS weight sensor bolt "D" signal circuit.
