Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Hummer H2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the ignition is turned ON, the instrument panel cluster (IPC) flashes the AIR BAG indicator seven times. The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) performs tests to diagnose critical malfunctions within the SIR system. If no SIR system malfunctions exists, the SDM will request the IPC to turn the AIR BAG indicator OFF after it has flashed 7 times. The AIR BAG indicator is controlled by the SDM via class 2 serial data.
