    All vehicles 

17. Install the driver air bag module. For additional information, refer to DRIVER AIR BAG MODULE .
18. Turn the ignition from OFF to ON.
19. Install RCM  fuse 32 (10A) in the SJB  and close the cover.
20. WARNING: Make sure no one is in the vehicle and there is nothing blocking or placed in front of any air bag module when the battery is connected. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury in the event of an accidental deployment.

    Connect the battery ground cable.

21. Prove out the SRS  as follows:

    Turn the ignition from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition ON and monitor the air bag warning indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag warning indicator will light continuously for approximately 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS  fault is detected, the air bag warning indicator will:

    • fail to light.
    • remain lit continuously.
    • flash.

      The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required to complete testing of the SRS  . If the air bag warning indicator is inoperative and a SRS  fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag warning indicator and any SRS  fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.

      Clear all RCM  and OCSM CMDTCs  .
