SEAT BELT: SEAT BELT WARNING SYSTEM: Front Passenger Side Seat Belt Warning Light Malfunction; 2013 MY FR-S [03/2012 -]
- Front Passenger Side Seat Belt Warning Light Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

When the ignition switch is ON, the occupant detection ECU sends a signal to the airbag sensor assembly to indicate the state of the front seat inner belt assembly RH and also whether the front passenger seat is occupied. The airbag sensor assembly sends those signals to the combination meter assembly. The telltale light assembly illuminates, blinks or turns off the seat belt warning light on the combination meter assembly in accordance with these signals.
