DTC B2500 SRS WARNING LAMP FAULT

DTC DESCRIPTION

The SRS warning lamp is located in the cluster. When the airbag system is normal, the SRS warning lamp turns
on for approx. 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON, and then turns off automatically. If there is a
malfunction in the airbag system, the SRS warning lamp lights up to inform the driver of the abnormality. The
SRSCM shall measure the voltage at the SRS warning lamp output pin, both when the lamp is on and when the
lamp is off, to detect whether the commanded state matches the actual state.
