Indicates the deployment loop resistance is less than 1.7 Ωcap omega for over 2 seconds, suggesting a short circuit. Common Scenario: Generally, a resistance greater than 4.4 Ωcap omega sets the code, signaling high resistance. Common Causes

Once the repair is completed, the SRS light must be cleared. A history DTC will typically clear automatically after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles, but a scan tool is usually required to clear the current, active B0012 code immediately. Common Causes Once the repair is completed, the
