27 Passenger Air Bag Deactivation (PAD) Warning Lamp Shorted To Ground
if you place the passenger deactivation switch to off with key does the light light up behind the off symbol? with ign. in run position.
this code is ussually caused by a deactivation switch with a burnt out light bulb. most replace the switch in the dash but there is prolly a way to take it apart and put a new bulb in. but i wouldnt play with air bag parts.
the other less likely causes are bad restraint control module or wiring to the deactivation switch. maybe it just came unplugged.
have you had the trim around the radio off lately? if its just a switch it is a real easy repair.
