To diagnose the B1B13 Dodge code, it typically requires 1.0 hour of labor.

It is common for most auto repair shops to charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets when the ORC detects a shorted together of the driver knee bolster squib line 1 and line 2 circuits for more than 2.5 seconds. This DTC transitions from active to stored when the ORC sees a recovery from the squib shorted together condition for greater than 2.5 seconds.
When powered, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) sends a test current to the squibs to verify the integrity of the squib and wiring. These circuits are maintained in a floating configuration at the module (connected to neither power nor ground) as protection against inadvertent deployment. The use of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Load Tool Adaptor provides a test point as well as a method for opening the shorting bar connections within the harness connector. The ORC Module sends out a 40 mA diagnostic current on each squib voltage supply circuit at power up, and every 500 ms thereafter while the ignition is on.
