Air Bag Warning Light Check
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Turn ignition switch to ON position and observe AIR BAG warning light. AIR BAG warning light should illuminate for 6-8 seconds, then go out, indicating system is functioning properly. If AIR BAG warning light either fails to illuminate, blinks on and off, or illuminates and stays on, a system malfunction exists. Go to DIAGNOSTICS .
