Buckle pretensioner (hereinafter referred to BUPT) is located beside driver and passenger seat. BUPT tightens seat belt with BPT and keeps seat belt tensioned. It is consist of buckle and gas generator. Buckle tightens seat belt. Gas generator generates gas to tighten cable.
Never measure resistance of any air bag module directly, Current of measuring device may cause unexpected airbag depoy.
The SRSCM sets DTC B1701 if the measured resistance value of DBUPT circuit is more than the threshold value.
*In this case, SRSCM checks if there’s any fault in circuit by sending current for a while.
