SRS airbag system warning light
A diagnostic system continually monitors the readiness of the SRS airbag system ( including seatbelt pretensioners ) with the ignition switch in the “ ON ” position . The SRS airbag system warning light will show normal system operation by illuminating for approximately 6 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the “ ON ” position .
The diagnostic system monitors the components to ensure normal operation . For information on the components the system monitors , refer to “ Components ” FP79 . Note that the diagnostic system does not monitor the SRS airbag system warning light itself .
