Re: Need help w/this code please (gman16)
The U1096 is a loss of communication with the dic display. The H means that it was in the past and not current. If it gives you any more codes then I would start by checking that the harness plug is firmly seated on the gauge cluster. 
PS I'm not familiar with the SDM module. Just checking but could that have been SCM (Seat Control Module)?

That is one of the codes that comes with the car for no extra charge! Earlier model cars had too quick of a trigger point on some of these codes. Lots of us have had this code since the car is new. There is also 1064 and 1016. Just clear it and it will be back but always as an "H" for history.

I dont see a 58....maybe a 53?
DTC B1053 Deployment Commanded w/Loop Malfunction
Circuit Description
The inflatable restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) contains a sensing device that converts vehicle velocity changes to an electrical signal. The SDM processes the generated electrical signal and compares it to a value stored in memory. When the generated signal exceeds the stored value, the SDM performs additional signal processing and compares the generated signals to signals stored in memory. When two of the generated signals exceed the stored values, the SDM will cause current to flow through the inflator modules, deploying the air bags. DTC B1053 will set instead of a DTC B1051 when a deployment occurs while an inflator circuit fault is present that could possibly result in a non-deployment situation in one or both inflator modules.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The SDM detects a frontal crash, up to 30 degrees off the centerline of the vehicle, of sufficient force to warrant deployment of the air bags.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The SDM sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code.
The SDM turns ON the AIR BAG warning lamp.
The SDM records crash data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
DTC B1053 is a latched code. You cannot clear a latched code. Replace the SDM after following the instructions in the diagnostic table.
Diagnostic Aids
DTC B1053 will be accompanied by another DTC (other than DTC B1071). Repair the malfunction causing the other DTC(s) before installing a new SDM.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
If the inflator module(s) has not deployed, DTC B1053 may have set falsely.
If DTC B1053 has set with no signs of frontal impact, the DTC has set falsely.
