Normal Operation
The air bag warning indicator provides an indication that there is a restraints system problem and the air bag may be inoperable or have degraded performance. If a fault is detected, the restraints control module (RCM) provides a ground signal to the instrument cluster through circuit 608 (BK/YE), which commands the air bag warning indicator to turn on.

Possible Causes
- Circuit 608 (BK/YE) open or short to ground
- RCM
- Instrument cluster
