System Operation Check: 1993

Two lights pertaining to air bag system are located directly above air bag symbol in instrument cluster. Control light is used to indicate readiness of system. With ignition on, control light comes on for about 5-8 seconds then goes out, while diagnosis unit in air bag control unit performs an electronic test cycle of system.

If control light does not function as described, a fault probably exists in system. If fault occurs while ignition is on, it will be stored in fault memory. Warning light will then come on, and air bag system will be switched off. If warning light comes on or flickers while driving, air bag system should be tested. Diagnose and repair as necessary.
