sorted it for anyone who wants to know SDM fault is secondary module = (SRS) turns out seat belt tensioners are apart of the srs eg

1 airbag 1 seat belt tensioner = 2 Loop srs
2 Airbag 1 seatbelt tensioner = 3 Loop srs
2 Airbag 2 seatbelt tensioner = 4 Loop srs
4 Airbag (2 are side airbags in the seats) 2 seat belt tensioners = 6 Loop srs
i was trying to program as a 4 Loop due to four Airbags not realising the seat belt tensioners were part of the loop hopes this helps

For anyone interested, its a similar setup with the Tech 1 scantool which is used by holden dealers on the older models (VS and older).It depends on what srs system configuration number the srs module is programmed with.On the VS, srs system configuration number 06 is programmed into the srs module for drivers side airbag configuration only,and 08 for both passenger and drivers airbag configuration.It also gives the options to program these srs modules for left and right side pretensioners as well as the airbags.The VS didnt have pretensioners,so obviously this configuration isnt used,so I dont know what the numbers would have been for these.

they would have come out on the VS GTS or any VS with a 5.7L and / or select few HSV models as pretensioners were introduced late VS early VT

Im not real sure,the tech 1 shows the build date of the srs module and airbag as being made in 1995.Which is the same year as the car that its in.A 1995 VS.

mate youve got me there cause the first VS GTS was '96 i believe unless they used the same module late '95 eg Nov/Dec onwards as when new models were produced there is always some overlap between years *shrug* cant be sure

Need help again guys using a carman i received these errors:
0001 Output Overload
0007 Pcm Data Lost
0008 PCM Vehicle Speed data unstable

now i reset my bcm and cleared the fault codes re read them and got the

0001 output overload

the reason i put a scan tool on the car is because the car overheats when driving for no reason (possible not enough power to thermos?)
the power windows stop working
the interior light stops working
and the a/c stops working
central locking stops occassionally start the car a few times with door shut then use remote before i open the door the central locking tends to come back
these all start working and stop working at any given time.

if i turn the motor off the windows work again then switch the car back on n keep driving the windows wont work after about 5- 20 mins start working again.

question is: could this be?

Aftermarket stereo?
PCM F****d
BCM F****d
or alternater needs replacing any ideas? on output overload??????

any help appreciated
