Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair
Prove Out System
Prove out system means to turn the ignition switch from OFF to RUN position and visually monitor the air bag indicator with the air bags installed.
The air bag indicator will light continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn Off. If an air bag system fault is present, the air bag indicator
will either:
-
Fail to light
-
Remain illuminated continuously
-
Flash.
Flashing may not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned from OFF to RUN position. This is the time required
for the air bag diagnostic monitor to complete testing of the air bag system. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an air bag system fault exists, a
tone will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator will need to be serviced before diagnosis can be continued.
