Re: dash fuse problem
What position fuse is blowing? Underhood fuse panel or dash fuse panel?

Re: dash fuse problem
Once you find the bad fuse pos, check owners manual on how many circuits are going to that fuse.
Isolate one circuit out of the picture at a time, during troubleshooting. |

Re: dash fuse problem
The Supplemental Inflatable Restraint system, (SIR) can be extremely dangerous when diagnosing and repairing. You might seriously consider having a qualified technician, at the very least, diagnose the problem for you.

Re: dash fuse problem
There are several circuits involved with the SIR system and the instrument cluster, including class 2 communications between the body and powertrain computers and the SIR module. It could very well be a problem that does not illuminate the SIR light, especially if you have a blown fuse.
