Air Bag Readiness Light; Low Coolant Light - Ford Thunderbird Owner's Manual

Air Bag Readiness Light

The air bag system uses a readiness light and a
tone to indicate the condition of the system. The
readiness light is in the instrument cluster. When
you turn the ignition key to the ON position,
this light will light up for six (6) seconds and
then turn off. This indicates that the system is
operating normally. NOTE: Regularly scheduled
maintenance of the air bag system is not
required.
If the light fails to illuminate, continues to flash,
remains on, or you hear a beeping sound, have
the system serviced at your Ford or
Lincoln-Mercury dealer immediately.

Low Coolant Light

This light tells you that the coolant is low inside
the coolant recovery bottle and that you should
add more coolant.
This light comes on for a few seconds when
your ignition key is turned to start, but should
turn off when the engine starts. If this light stays
on, check the level of coolant inside the recovery
bottle. See Engine Coolant in the Index.
