Troubleshooting
The SRS Indicator Light Doesn't Come On
CAUTION: Whonever ths ignition switch is ON {ll}, or
has been turned OFF tor less than three minutes. be
careful not to bump the SRS unit; the airbagls) could
accidentally deploy .nd caus6 damage or iniuri€s.
Check tho pow€r supply (fuse):
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and check whether the otherindicator lights come on (brake system, etc.).
Oo the other indicator liohts como on?
YESNO
Check th6 fuso:Check the No. 25 {7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash tuse/relayb"t
ls th6 tu36 OK?
NOYES
Check the bulb:Replace the No. 25 (7.5 A) fuse, and check that theSRS indicator light comes on.
Doos the SRS indicator liqhl come on7
I YES No
END
Check tho wire harns b€twecn fus6 and gauge aasambly:Check for an open in the wire harness between luseNo. 25 {7.5 A) and the gauge assembly, and repair. Checkthat the SRS indicator light comes on.
Doo. tho SRS indic.tor light como on?

END
Check tho SRS indicator light bulb:1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.2. Remove the gauge assembly.3. Check for blown SRS indicator light butb.
ls the SRS indicator light bulb OK?
NOYES
Ch.ck the SnS indicator liglrt circuit:Replace the bulb, and reconnect the gauge assemblyconnectors. Then turn the ignition switch ON {ll}.
