Retrieving Codes
- Turn ignition switch to ON position (with engine off). Connect diagnostic terminal "A" to diagnosis connector terminal No. 2. See Fig 1. Diagnostic connector is located below lower instrument cover panel (near console).
- Read diagnostic codes by noting number of AIR BAG warning light flashes. A long flash (1.2 seconds) indicates a 10 and a short flash (0.3 second) indicates a one. Each digit will be separated by a 0.3 second pause. For example, 2 long flashes followed by 3 short flashes would indicate Code 23. A long flash followed by 2 short flashes would indicate Code 12.
- When code retrieval is complete, turn ignition off. Disconnect diagnostic terminal "A" from diagnosis connector. Return diagnosis connector and diagnostic terminal "A" to original position. Diagnose appropriate fault code. See IDENTIFYING SRS FAULT CODES table.
