  2. Using ISAT Scan Tool (86 10 834), check if air bag system control module is programmed for one or 2 air bags. If programmed for 2, check for other DTCs. If none are present, go to BEFORE REPLACING CONTROL MODULE  . If programmed for one, reprogram control module by stepping through command menu until "Programming" is reached. Change air bag configuration to "Driver + Passenger". For further information, consult ISAT manual. Clear DTCs and turn ignition off. Turn ignition back on, wait 10 seconds, and observe AIR BAG warning light. If DTC B1610 does not reappear, fault has been corrected. Ensure vehicle is in proper working order. If DTC B1610 does reappear, replace air bag system control module.
