 Front Passenger Seat Weight Sensor

    Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger seat weight sensors as a part of the 
supplemental restraint system. These sensors are located under both of the front passenger 
seat rails. These sensors determine the total seated weight on the front passenger seat and 
monitor the seat belt buckle for the front passenger seat. The SAS unit is designed to prevent 
the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system from deploying 
if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates.
  To reduce the chance of injuries caused by deployment of the front passenger air bag, 
the system deactivates the front passenger front and side air bags and also the seat 
belt pretensioner system when the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light 
illuminates. Refer to the following table for the front passenger air bag deactivation 
indicator light illumination conditions.

  This system shuts off the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner 
system, so make sure the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates 
according to the following table.

  The air bag/front seat belt pretensioner system warning light fl ashes and the front passenger 
air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates if the sensors have a possible malfunction. 
If this happens, the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system 
will not deploy.
