Test Notes

All Primary Crash Sensors Disconnected

NORMAL OPERATION
Each primary crash sensor has two wires. One wire is used for air bag deployment and monitoring the sensor's connection to the air bag diagnostic monitor (refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code 41 diagnosis). The other wire is used for monitoring the mounting (ground) of the sensor to sheet metal (refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code 44 , Diagnostic Trouble Code 45 and Diagnostic Trouble Code 46 diagnosis). If both primary sensors are not connected and if both primary sensors are not properly grounded, then the air bag diagnostic monitor will flash the air bag warning indicator continuously at a fast rate.

Possible Cause
Rapid continuous flashing of the air bag warning indicator can be caused by:

1. All primary crash sensors disconnected from wiring harness or main wiring harness not connected with engine compartment wiring harness.
