Posted by

B0019 Possible Causes

  • Faulty passenger front module
  • Passenger front module wiring harness is open or shorted
  • Poor electrical connection in the passenger front module circuit
  • Faulty Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM)

How is B0019 Code Repaired?

Start by checking the “Possible Causes” listed above. Visually inspect the corresponding wiring harness and connectors. Look for damaged components and check for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.

B0019 Meaning

During a side or frontal collision of sufficient force, the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) of the airbag restraint system will allow current to flow through the deployment loop to deploy an airbag restraint module. There are 2 shorting bars used in the module connector that will short the high and low circuits together when the connector is disconnected. This helps prevent accidental deployment of the inflatable module during maintenance.
