Malfunction Lamp / Indicator: Description and Operation
The AIR BAG warning lamp notifies the driver of Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) malfunctions. Ignition voltage is applied to the AIR BAG
warning lamp when the ignition switch is at the RUN or START positions. The supplemental restraint Diagnostic Energy Reserve Module (DERM)
controls the lamp by providing ground with a lamp driver. The AIR BAG warning lamp does the following tasks:
^
Verifies lamp and DERM operation. The lamp will flash seven times when the ignition switch is first turned ON.
^
Warns the vehicle driver of SRS electrical system malfunctions. These malfunctions may potentially affect the operation of the Supplemental
Restraint System. Electrical system malfunctions may result in either of the following conditions:
^
Non-deployment in the case of a frontal crash
^
Deployment for conditions less severe than intended
For proper AIR BAG warning lamp operation, refer to Instrument Panel and Gages.
