This output refers to the commanded state of the fasten seat belts lamp illumination by the instrument cluster. ON is displayed when the instrument cluster is commanding the fasten seat belts lamp to be illuminated. OFF is displayed when the instrument cluster is not commanding the fasten seat belts lamp to be illuminated. The instrument cluster will command the fasten seat belts lamp to be illuminated under the following conditions:
^ The fasten seat belt lamp will illuminate for 20 seconds followed by 55 seconds of flashing when it receives a class 2 message from the body control module (BCM) that the drivers seat belt is not buckled.
^ During the bulb check period for about 3 seconds after the ignition switch is first turned to the RUN position providing the drivers seat belt is not buckled. If the seat belt is buckled when the ignition switch is turned to the RUN position, the seat belt indicator will remain OFF.
