safety belt is already buckled, neither the chime nor the
light comes on.

The safety belt light comes
on and stays on for

If the passenger safety belt is buckled, neither the

may turn on if an object is put on the seat such as a

Airbag Readiness Light

The system checks the airbag's electrical system for
possible malfunctions. If the light stays on it indicates
there is an electrical problem. The system check
includes the airbag sensor, the pretensioners, the airbag
modules, the wiring and the crash sensing and
diagnostic module. For more information on the airbag
system, see Airbag System on page 2-60.

repeated if the passenger
remains unbuckled and
the vehicle is in motion.
