The ignition switch supplies Ignition 1 voltage to the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) at terminal A1 using the SIR Fuse. The ignition switch also supplies Ignition 1 voltage to the AIR BAG warning lamp using the IP-IGN Fuse. The AIR BAG warning lamp is connected to the INFLATABLE RESTRAINT INDICATOR at terminal A9 of the SDM. When the ignition switch is first turned to the RUN position, the SDM responds by flashing the AIR BAG warning lamp seven times.
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
This step checks to see if the malfunction is in the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) circuitry or in the instrument cluster power feed circuitry.
This step checks to see if voltage is present in the AIR BAG warning lamp circuit.
This step checks to see if there is a short to B+ in CKT 358.
This step checks to see if the instrument cluster wiring harness connector C2 is damaged or corroded.
This step checks to see if the open is due to a bad bulb.
This step checks to see if there is an open or a high resistance in CKT 358.
This step checks to see if power is available to the instrument cluster power feed circuit.
This step determines if there is a short to ground in CKT 39 or if there is a malfunctioning instrument cluster.
This step checks to see if the instrument cluster wiring harness connector C2 is damaged or corroded.
This step determines if there is an open or a high resistance in CKT 39 or if there is an open or a high resistance in the power feed circuit to the IP-IGN Fuse.
