Normal Operation
The air bag Electronic Crash Sensor (ECS) module monitors the voltage at pins 10, 11 and 12 to determine if it is installed on the correct vehicle. If the ECS detects an incorrect voltage on any of these pins, it will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) C1414 in memory and flash a Lamp Fault Code (LFC) 29 (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.

Possible Causes
An incorrect module design level code could be caused by:

  • an ECS module installed on the wrong vehicle.
  • a short to ground, short to battery or open circuit in the wiring harness.
