B1019:3A SDM System Configuration Error Incorrect Component Installed
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1019 can be set after the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) has been replaced and/or reprogrammed before the setup procedure is completed. The setup procedure cannot be completed if DTC B1019 is set as current or history. If a short or open is detected in a deployment circuit prior to the setup procedure being performed, the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module will set DTC B1019.
Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the B1019 Cadillac code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) monitors the number of safety components installed on the vehicle. When the ignition is turned ON, the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module evaluates the number of safety components installed and compares it to the number of components the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module expects to see on the vehicle with its current calibration. If there is a mismatch between the detected components and the components programmed with the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module calibration, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B1019 will be set. The components (if equipped) that the Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module will detect include inflatable restraint deployment loops, impact sensors, passenger presence system components, seat position sensors, disable switches, and seat belt switches.
