Deployment Authorization Procedure

AIR BAG MODULE DEPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION PROCEDURES

1. Install a new SAS control module. Turn the ignition switch to ON and verify that the air bag system warning light illuminates for approximately 6 seconds, goes out, and then flashes continuously.
- If the air bag system warning light does not flash continuously and indicates a diagnostic trouble code, inspect the system using the on-board diagnostic. (See FOREWORD.) When the malfunctions have been repaired and the air bag system warning light flashes continuously, go to step 2.

2. If the air bag system warning light flashes continuously, turn the ignition switch to LOCK and back to ON after more than approximately 1 second.
3. Verify that the air bag system warning light illuminates for approximately 6 seconds and then goes off.
- If the light stays on, perform the deployment authorization procedure again.
