Air Bag Readiness Light; Air Bag Off Light - Chevrolet 2003 Silverado 1500 Pickup Owner's Manual

Air Bag Readiness Light
There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument
panel cluster, which shows the air bag symbol.
The system checks the air 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 modules, the passenger sensing
system (if equipped), the wiring and the crash sensing
and diagnostic module. For more information on the
air bag system, see Air Bag Systems on page 1-61.

This light will come on
when you start your
vehicle, and it will flash for
a few seconds. Then the
light should go out. This
means the system is ready.

When you turn the right front passenger's air bag off,
this light will be lit and stay lit to remind you that the air
bag has been turned off. This light will go off when
you turn the air bag back on again. See Air Bag
