Airbag Readiness Light
This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the airbag
system. The system check includes
the airbag sensor(s), the passenger
sensing system, the pretensioners, the
airbag modules, the wiring, and the
crash sensing and diagnostic module.
For more information on the airbag
system, see

The airbag readiness light comes on
for several seconds when the vehicle is
started. If the light does not come on

Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing
system. See

The overhead console has a passenger
airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator will
light the symbols for on and off for
several seconds as a system check.
Then, after several more seconds, the
status indicator will light the on or off
symbol to let you know the status of
the front outboard passenger frontal
airbag.
If the on symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it
means that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag is allowed to
inflate.
If the off symbol is lit on the airbag
status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has turned
off the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag.
If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, or if there
