Driver Notification-The SDM warns the vehicle driver of SIR system malfunctions by controlling the AIR BAG warning lamp.
The SDM connects to the SIR wiring harness using a 12-way connector. The SDM harness connector uses a shorting bar across certain terminals in the
contact area. Removal of the SDM Connector Position Assurance (CPA) or the harness connector itself will connect the AIR BAG warning lamp to
ground through the shorting bar.
The AIR BAG warning lamp will come ON steady with power applied to the SDM when either one of the following two conditions exist:
^
You remove the SDM CPA.
^
You disconnect the SDM harness connector.
The SDM receives power whenever the ignition switch is at the RUN or START positions.
