SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK An air bag light is located on left side of instrument cluster. Air bag light is used to indicate readiness of system. Light glows when ignition switch is on or engine is started. Light should stay on about 3 seconds while air bag control unit performs an electronic test of system. If air bag light does not glow when ignition is on or does not go out after 3 seconds, a fault probably exists in system. If a fault occurs while ignition is on, it is stored in fault memory. Warning light will then glow and air bag system will be switched off. If warning light glows or flickers while driving, air bag system should be tested.
