All Models Except Prizm & Pickups With Passenger Air Bag
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 102 other vehicles, including the 2002 Saturn Vue, 2002 Saturn SL2, 2002 Saturn SL1, 2002 Saturn SL, and 2002 Saturn SC2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Turn ignition switch from OFF to ON or RUN position. AIR BAG warning light should flash 7 times (6-10 times on DeVille) and then turn off.
The following AIR BAG warning light conditions indicate possible SIR system faults.
- Light does not illuminate at all.
- Light remains illuminated when ignition is turned on.
- Light illuminates while vehicle is driven.
SIR system faults are usually due to a disconnected/loose electrical connector caused by previous service on vehicle. Always check all Yellow SIR connectors for loose connections or damage.
If all connectors are okay, and AIR BAG warning light is still not operating properly, diagnose SIR system. Repair as necessary.
