How to Arm and Disarm an Air Bag System on 2002 Ford Explorer?

The air bag system allows arming and disarming through turning on the ignition switch yet requiring all SRS components to remain connected or the use of installed restraint system diagnostic tools. Make note of the air bag indicator which should stay on continuously for six seconds after which it turns off. An SRS fault causes the air bag indicator to either not activate at all or stay lit continuously or produce flashing illumination and this flashing might begin thirty seconds after turning ON the ignition because the restraints control module (RCM) completes its SRS testing at that time. A device chime will emit a distinctive five-note pattern if the air bag indicator shows no operation and an SRS fault exists thus requiring air bag indicator repair before SRS medical diagnosis can continue.
