WARNING:
Before beginning any service procedure in this
manual, refer to health and safety warnings in section 100-00 General
Information. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
personal injury.
Refer to: Health and Safety Precautions (100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).
No SRS Fault Present At Beginning of Repair
-
Prove out the SRS
. Verify all airbags are installed and connected and the ignition is
OFF. Wait 10 seconds then turn the ignition ON and monitor the airbag
warning indicator. The airbag warning indicator illuminates continuously
for approximately 6 seconds and turns off. Continue to monitor the
airbag warning indicator for approximately 30 seconds as this is the
time required for the RCM to complete testing of the SRS .
-
-
If a SRS
fault is present, the airbag warning indicator either fails to light,
remains lit continuously or flashes. The flashing may not occur until
approximately 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned from OFF to
ON. If this occurs, diagnose and repair any SRS faults before proceeding with other repairs.
-
If, after the ignition has been turned on for 30
seconds, the airbag warning indicator remains unlit with no chime or
SRS message displayed in the message center, no SRS fault is present.
-
If the airbag warning indicator is inoperative and a SRS
fault exists, a chime sounds in a pattern of 5 sets of 5 beeps or a
message displays in the message center. If this occurs, diagnose and
repair the airbag warning indicator and any SRS faults before proceeding with other repairs.
