Front Passenger Airbag Indication
To indicate status of airbag passenger, the vehicle is equipped with two warning lights. The lights are located in the roof panel and are directly connected to the Supplemental Restraint System Module (SRS)
The Supplemental Restraint System Module (SRS) turns the warning lights on or off depending on whether the front passenger airbag is deactivated or not.
If there is a front passenger airbag switch installed (market-dependent) and it is used to deactivate the airbag, the front passenger airbag warning light (PAD) (1) is lit.
The warning light turns off when the airbag is activated again and then warning light activated airbag passenger (PAE) is lit instead (not USA/CAN) (2).
If an Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) is installed (market-dependent), the warning light airbag passenger (PAD) is lit when the airbag is deactivated.
The warning light turns off when the airbag is activated again. In these cases, the warning light activated airbag passenger (PAE) (not USA/CAN) will never be lit.
Reason the passenger airbag warning lamp (PAD) lights could also be:
- malfunction of the switch for the front passenger airbag, causing the Supplemental Restraint System Module (SRS) to disable the front passenger airbag.
- malfunction of the Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS), causing the Supplemental Restraint System Module (SRS) to disable the front passenger airbag.
- other problems that affect function of the SRS-system.
