Enable criteria:

Ignition ON.

Fault criteria:

Voltage on the control module input is outside of the permissible limit value.

System reaction to a fault:

The airbag system should be considered non-operational. There may, however, be some functionality.
The control module ignores the activation command from the sensor as long as a fault is active.

Checking the wiring harness


Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.
