Passenger Ain Curtain(Air Bag) Circuit

[svssvs48]

Has anyone else had this error message ? This did not start until it got cold in Wisconsin. First time it was on and went away on the next start up. Now on all the time with an orange air bag light on the dash and ford pass showing the fault.

There's another post in here about it somewhere. That person ended up having the dealer replace a connector.

I took mine in maybe two weeks ago for the same issue that keeps coming and going on my truck, and the tech diagnosed it as a bad capacitor requiring a new curtain airbag and another part, maybe a new pigtail or connector. Still waiting for parts to come in that will hopefully fix it. I'll try to remember to post the work report/invoice here once it is taken care of.

Thanks so much for the briefing. Mine is going in on Tuesday so I will pass that info to the dealer

Good luck! My airbag light conveniently turned off the morning I was dropping the truck off and didn't turn back on again until a couple days after I brought it back home. The service writer pulled up the history of of the airbag light turning on and off while I was handing him my key so they knew I wasn't crazy. The tech was somehow still able to diagnose it with the light off the whole time.

Were you able to get yours fixed up? Just picked mine up from the dealer. Took about half a day once the part(s) finally came in. Tech's notes are below for mine.

Thanks so much for reaching back out. After the 2nd time I went they ordered the connector and the new air bag. Connector came in a day, but the air bag did not arrive until today. Now scheduled for next week. Weird part is since the tech messed with the connector no more light on the dash although they can still see it as an ongoing problem code.

Sort of makes sense. The notes my tech left on that invoice said they could see the resistance changing as the wiggled the connector/pins which is why the replaced the pigtail connector too.
