On-Board Diagnostics /SRS Warning Light Function

ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC/SRS WARNING LIGHT FUNCTION







The SRS-ECU monitors the SRS system and stores data concerning any detected faults in the system. When the ignition switch is in "ON" position, the SRS warning light, passenger's air bag OFF indicator light and passenger's seat belt warning light should illuminate for about seven seconds and then turn "OFF." That indicates that the SRS system is in operational order. If the SRS warning light does any of the following, the immediate inspection by an authorized dealer is needed:
1. The SRS warning light does not illuminate as described above.
2. The SRS warning light stays on for more than seven seconds.
3. The SRS warning light illuminates while driving.

If a vehicle's SRS warning light is in any of these three conditions, the SRS system must be inspected, diagnosed and serviced in accordance with this manual.
