Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ignition switch supplies ignition voltage to the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) using the SIR Fuse. The ignition switch also supplies ignition 1 voltage to the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The AIR BAG warning indicator is controlled by the SDM via class 2 serial data. When the ignition switch is first turned ON, the SDM responds by performing tests on the SIR system and commanding the AIR BAG warning indicator OFF, after it has flashed 7 times, if no trouble codes (DTCs) are found.
