Airbag code help 09' Chevy HHR, Left Front Side Impact Sensor Short To Battery
Looking for diag help for a B0085-01 Left Front Side Impact Sensor Short To Battery.
Swapped out the sensor from another vehicle but can't say for certain if it's good.
Cleaned connections using Deoxit D5.
Get the same code with the sensor unplugged.
Able to clear the code but it comes right back.
Any guidance from here would be very appreciated!
If there are two impact sensors, you can take voltage measurements on the impact sensor that is not setting a code, then make the same measurements on the one that does code to conclude if the circuit is at fault. If both circuits test the same, you likely have a bad used sensor.
