TIAGOR

SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

B. PASSENGER AIRBAG (PAB)

The passenger airbag module is located below

the dashboard; above the glove box and its

functioning is controlled by the SRS ECU. A bag

within the module inflates to protect the passenger

in the event of a collision severe enough to deploy

the system.

Within the passenger airbag module is a squib

which, when given the correct current by the SRS

ECU, inflates the airbag by initiating a chemical

reaction. In deployment, the airbag inflates within

a fraction of a second and then deflates at a

controlled rate as the passenger body regions;

typically head and chest interact with airbag.

Vents in the airbag control its deflation.

The SRS ECU regularly applies a test current to

the passenger airbag squib to confirm continuity

of the ignition circuitry.

ON VEHICLE SERVICE

!! WARNING

Always work on the air bag module from the side.

Always carry the module with the cover side

terminals.
