Test A: Air Bag Warning Light Stays On: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mercury Villager. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
During normal operation, the AIR BAG warning light will be continuously illuminated for 7 seconds after the ignition switch is placed in RUN position and after 5 cycles of Light Fault Code (LFC) if a fault exists. Be sure to cycle ignition switch and look for a continuous AIR BAG warning light without LFC.
