B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13, B0052:1D


Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 46 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The RCM continuously monitors the passenger seatbelt buckle sensor circuits for the following faults:

  • Open circuit
  • Short to voltage
  • Short to ground
  • Current out of range
  • Faulted passenger seatbelt buckle sensor

If a fault is detected, the RCM stores DTC B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13 or B0052:1D in memory and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the airbag warning indicator.


  DTC Fault Trigger Conditions


  DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
B0052:11 Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Short to Ground A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to ground on the passenger seatbelt buckle sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds.
B0052:12 Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Short to Battery A fault is indicated when the RCM senses a short to voltage on the passenger seatbelt buckle sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds.
B0052:13 Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Open A fault is indicated when the RCM senses an open on either passenger seatbelt buckle sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds.
B0052:1D Passenger Seatbelt Sensor: Circuit Current Out of Range A fault is indicated when the RCM measures current outside of an acceptable range on the passenger seatbelt buckle sensor circuit for more than 6 seconds.

Possible Sources

  • Wiring, terminals or connectors
  • Passenger seatbelt buckle sensor
  • RCM

Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks

  • Inspect for a damaged passenger seatbelt buckle.
  • Inspect for damaged wiring harness(es).
  • Inspect for loose or damaged connectors.

PINPOINT TEST A: B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13 AND B0052:1D
  WARNING: Incorrect repair techniques or actions can cause an accidental Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) deployment. Never compromise or depart from these instructions. Failure to precisely follow all instructions could result in serious personal injury from an accidental deployment.
NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may cause damage to the connector.
NOTE: Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns. Carry out a thorough inspection and verification before proceeding with the pinpoint test.
NOTE: Only disconnect or reconnect SRS components when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS .
NOTE: Always make sure the correct SRS component is being installed. Parts released for other vehicles may not be compatible even if they appear physically similar. Check the part number listed in the Ford parts catalog to make sure the correct component is being installed. If an incorrect SRS component is installed, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) may set.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
A1 RETRIEVE RCM (RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)
  •   WARNING: Before beginning any service procedure in this section, refer to Safety Warnings in section 100-00 General Information. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
    REFER to: Pyrotechnic Device Health and Safety Precautions (100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).
  • Ignition ON.
  • Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out RCM self-test.

Was DTC B0052:11, B0052:12, B0052:13 and B0052:1D retrieved on-demand during self-test?
Yes If DTC U3003:16 or U3003:17 is also retrieved on-demand,
REFER to: Pinpoint Test - DTC: AM, Vehicles With: Rear Seat Side Airbag (501-20B Supplemental Restraint System, Diagnosis and Testing). If DTC U3003:16 or U3003:17 is not retrieved on-demand during self-test, DIAGNOSE the passenger seatbelt buckle sensor Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
This fault cannot be cleared until it is corrected and the DTC is no longer retrieved on-demand during self-test.
