Circuit Description
The ignition switch supplies ignition 1 voltage to the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) using the F2 fuse. The ignition switch also supplies battery voltage to the AIR BAG indicator using the F2 fuse. The AIR BAG indicator is connected to the AIR BAG indicator output of the SDM. When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON position, the SDM responds by flashing the AIR BAG indicator seven times.
Diagnostic Aids
Thoroughly inspect the wiring and the connectors. An incomplete inspection of the wiring and the connectors may result in a misdiagnosis, causing a part replacement with a reappearance of the malfunction. If an intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems.
