Test Notes

Normal Operation
Each crash sensor has three wires.
^ The first wire is used for the air bag deployment.
^ The second wire is used to monitor the sensor's connection to the air bag diagnostic monitor. (Refer to Pinpoint Test K [LFC/DTC 41] and L [LFC/DTC42], Normal Operation, for details.)
^ The third is used to monitor the mounting (ground) of the sensor to sheet metal. (Refer to Pinpoint Test M [LFC/DTC 44] and N [LFC/DTC 45], Normal Operation, for details.)

If both crash sensors are disconnected, the air bag diagnostic monitor will flash the air bag indicator continuously at a rapid rate.

Possible Causes
Rapid, continuous flashing of the air bag indicator can be caused by:
1 Both crash sensors disconnected from the wiring harness.
2. Main wiring harness not connected to the engine compartment wiring harness.
