Prove out the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) : Turn the ignition from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition back to ON and monitor the air bag warning indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag warning indicator illuminates continuously for approximately 6 seconds and then turns off. If a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) fault is present, the air bag warning indicator will:- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
- The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned from OFF to ON. This is the time required for the Restraints Control Module to complete the testing of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). If the air bag warning indicator is inoperative and a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) fault exists, a chime sounds in a pattern of 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, diagnose and repair the air bag warning indicator and any Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) faults.
