DTC 42 Driver Pretensioner Loop Resistance Low
D09RW014
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is turned “ON”, the SDM will
perform tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within
itself. Upon passing these tests “Ignition 1”, and
pretensioner loop voltages are measured to ensure they
are within their respective normal voltage ranges.
The SDM then proceeds with the “Resistance
Measurement Test” “Driver Belt Low” terminal “22” is
grounded through a current sink and the driver current
source connected to “Driver Belt High” terminal “21”
allows a known amount of current to flow. By monitoring
the voltage difference between “Driver Belt High” and
“Driver Belt Low” the SDM calculates the combined
resistance of the driver pretensioner assembly, harness
wiring IB13–BLU/RED and IB14–BLU/YEL and
connector terminal contact.
DTC Will Set When:
The combined resistance of the driver pretensioner
assembly, harness wiring IB13–BLU/RED and
IB14–BLU/YEL and connector terminal contact is above
a specified value. This test is run once each ignition cycle
during the “Resistance Measurement Test” when:
1. No “higher priority faults” are detected during
“Turn–ON”
2. “Ignition 1” voltage is in the specified value.
Action Taken:
SDM turns “ON” the “AIR BAG” warning lamp and sets
DTC 42.
DTC Will Clear When:
The ignition switch is turned “OFF.”
DTC Chart Test Description:
Number(s) below refer to circled number(s) on the
diagnostic chart:

DTC 44 Driver Pretensioner Loop Open
D09RW014
Circuit Description:
When the ignition switch is turned “ON”, the SDM will
perform tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within
itself. Upon passing these tests, “Ignition 1”, and
pretensioner loop voltages are measured to ensure they
are within their respective normal voltage ranges.
During “Continuous Monitoring” diagnostics, a fixed
amount of current is following in the pretensioner loop.
This produces proportional voltage drops in the loop. By
monitoring the voltage difference between “Driver Belt
High” and “Driver Belt Low”, the SDM calculates the
combined resistance of the driver pretensioner assembly,
harness wiring IB13–BLU/RED and IB14–BLU/YEL, and
connector terminal contact.
DTC Will Set When:
The voltage difference between “Driver Belt High”
terminal “21” and “Driver Belt Low” terminal “22” is above

OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.
CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
General Description
The cruise control keeps the vehicle running at a fixed
speed until a signal canceling this fixed speed is received .
When the main switch “AUTO CRUISE” is turned on with
the vehicle in the running mode, the battery voltage is
applied to the control unit. When a signal from the control
switch is input to the control unit while the vehicle is in this
state, the cruise control actuator is activated to operate
the system. Also, while the system is operating, the
“AUTO CRUISE” indicator light in the meter assembly
lights up.
1. SET/COAST Switch Function
1.Set Function: When the SET/COAST switch is
pressed and released with the main switch on, the
speed at which the vehicle is running at that moment
is stored in the memory, and the vehicle automatically
runs at the stored speed.
2.Coast-down Function: When the SET/COAST
switch is kept on while the vehicle in running, the
vehicle decelerates during that time. The speed at
which vehicle is running when the control switch is
turned off is stored in the memory, and the vehicle
automatically returns to the stored speed.
3.Tap-down Function: When the SET/COAST switch
is turned on and off instantaneously while the vehicle
is running, the vehicle decelerates a mile for each
on/off operation. The vehicle speed at which the
vehicle was running when the SET/COAST was
turned off last is stored in the memory, and the vehicle
automatically returns to this stored speed.
