System Operation Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 GMC Savana and 2002 Chevrolet Chevy Express. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If system is functioning normally, AIR BAG warning light flashes 7 times and then turns off when ignition is turned on. System malfunction is indicated when light does not illuminate at all, light comes on while vehicle is driven, light flashes 7 times and remains on or light does not flash but remains on when ignition is turned on.

SIR system faults are usually due to a disconnected or loose electrical connector caused by previous service on vehicle. Always check SIR coil connector at base of steering column for loose or damaged wiring.
