Driver Side Crash Sensor Mounting Failure
Normal Operation
The driver side crash sensor monitors the severity of a crash event. If the crash event is severe enough, the sensor will signal the restraints control module (RCM) to deploy the driver side air bag.
The RCM monitors the two-wire current loop to the driver side crash sensor for a signal that is out of the expected range. If the RCM detects a signal from the driver side crash sensor, indicating a sensor mounting failure, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2441 and flash a lamp fault code (LFC) 42 (or a higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.
Possible Causes
A driver side crash sensor mounting failure fault can be caused by:
* damaged driver side crash sensor.
* corrosion or damage at the sensor mounting surface.

Not to bring back the dead but I still have this code and have replaced the sensor. I cleaned the mounting surface and put new unit on but still have the stupid light....4-2. I cleaned and lubed the plug under my seat too just for kicks. Is there a way to test the rcm? Or the plug to the sensor? I am going crazy trying to figure this out.
Thanks for any help.
