Right Curtain Deployment Control 1

B0029 (right front deployment loop) on Ford trucks usually comes down to the passenger airbag connector under the seat working loose due to seat sliding. Pull the seat forward, lift the carpet flap, and reseat the yellow connector. If that does not clear it, check the passenger occupant classification sensor (OCS) mat in the seat cushion. Ford issued SSM 47240 covering OCS warranty extensions on many 2009-2014 trucks. There is no consumer-grade part or tool that safely resolves a restraint deployment-circuit fault, so we do not recommend one here - a scan tool that only clears the code would switch the warning light off while leaving the restraint disabled.

GM B0029 normally points to the passenger-side front impact sensor on the radiator support. Like the driver side, corrosion at the connector is the usual culprit. Clean the terminals, apply dielectric grease, reconnect, then clear the code with a scan tool. If the sensor body is cracked, replace it. Do not reuse impact sensors from a vehicle that was in a collision -- they are single-use.

Super Duty B0029 codes often appear after an airbag module was disconnected for repair work. Verify all yellow connectors under both front seats are fully seated and the CPA (connector position assurance) locks are clicked in. If wiring is intact, the SRS control module itself may need programming or replacement via a dealer with IDS.
