Malfunction Lamp / Indicator: Description and Operation
Air Bag Warning Lamp
Ignition voltage is applied to the AIR BAG warning lamp when the ignition switch is at the ON or START positions.
The SDM controls the lamp by providing ground with a lamp driver. The AIR BAG warning lamp is used in the SRS to do the following:
1. Verify lamp and SDM operation by flashing SEVEN (7) times when the ignition switch is first turned ON.
2. Warn the vehicle driver of SRS electrical system malfunctions which could potentially affect the operation of the SRS. These malfunctions could
result in nondeployment in case of a frontal crash or deployment for conditions less severe than intended.
The AIR BAG warning lamp is the key to driver notification of SRS malfunctions.
