Airbag Readiness Light
There is an airbag readiness light on the
instrument panel cluster, which shows the
airbag 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
airbag sensor, the pretensioners, the air-
bag modules, the wiring and the crash
sensing and diagnostic module. For more
information on the airbag system, refer to
“Airbag System” in the “Seats and
Restraint Systems” section.

If the airbag readiness light stays on after
you start the vehicle or comes on when
you are driving, your airbag system may
not work properly. Have your vehicle ser-
viced right away.
The airbag readiness light should flash for
a few seconds when you start the engine.
If the light does not come on then, have it
fixed immediately. If there is a problem with
the airbag system, an airbag Driver Infor-
mation Center (DIC) message may also
come on. Refer to “DIC Warnings and
Messages” in “Driver Information Center
(DIC)” in this section.
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator

system. Your instrument panel has a pas-
senger airbag status indicator.

When you start the vehicle, the passenger
airbag status indicator will light ON and
OFF, or the symbol for on and off, for sev-
eral seconds as a system check. Then,
after several more seconds, the status indi-
cator will light either ON or OFF, or either
the on or off symbol to let you know the
status of the right front passenger’s frontal
airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it means
that the right front passenger’s frontal air-
bag is enabled (may inflate).
WARNING
If the airbag readiness light stays on
after you start your vehicle, it means
the airbag system may not be work-
ing properly. The airbags in your
vehicle may not inflate in a crash, or
they could even inflate without a
crash. To help avoid injury to your-
self or others, have your vehicle ser-
viced right away if the airbag
readiness light stays on after you
start your vehicle.
