Air Bag Readiness Light
There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument panel,
which shows AIR BAG. The system checks the
a i r
bag's
electrical system for malfunctions. The light tells you if
there is an electrical problem. The system check includes
the air bag sensors, the air bag module, the wiring and the
diagnostic module. For more information on the air bag
system, see "Air Bag" in the Index,

AIR
BAG
This light will come on
when you start your engine,
and it will flash for a few
seconds. Then the light
should go out. This means
the system is ready.
If the air bag readiness light stays on after you start the
engine or comes on when you are driving, your air bag
system may not work properly. Have your vehicle
serviced right away.
The air bag readiness light should flash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If the
light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.
AIR BAG OFF Light (Except Crew Cab)
When you turn the right front passenger's air bag off, this
light will come on and stay on to remind you that the a i r
bag has been turned off. This light will go off when you
turn the air bag back on again. See "Securing a Child
Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position" in the Index for
more on this, including important safety information.
