Driver Airbag Deployment Loop Resistance Out of Range

Understand B2501, common causes, and the right TOPDON scanner to diagnose it.

Driver airbag squib resistance not within spec — deployment may not occur.

Sintomi comuni

  • Airbag warning
  • Do not measure squib with ohmmeter

Cause tipiche

  • Clock spring high/low resistance
  • Airbag module internal fault
  • Connector not fully seated

Di quale scanner hai bisogno?

Full-system scanner (engine, ABS, SRS, transmission, service resets)

Usa dati live e freeze frame prima di sostituire componenti. I codici ABS, SRS e U richiedono di solito uno scanner full-system.

Consigli diagnostici

  • Registra il freeze frame quando compare il codice
  • Cancella il codice solo dopo aver risolto la causa
  • Controlla codici pending correlati
  • Verifica che la batteria sia sopra 12,4 V prima di sospettare i sensori
