Construction

GENERAL
The SRS airbag consists of an airbag control module, left and right front sensors, safety sensor built into the control module, and airbag modules of driver and passenger containing an inflator and airbag. The left and right front sensors are connected in parallel respectively, and the front sensors and safety sensor are connected in series, so that the airbag will inflate it at least one front sensor and safety sensor sense an impact at the same time.




SAFETY SENSOR
Safety sensor is built into the airbag control module.
If the dual pole rotary type sensor receives a frontal impact exceeding a certain set limit. The eccentric rotor rotates to turn the switch ON.




AIRBAG MODULE
The driver's airbag module is located at the center of the steering wheel, and passenger's airbag module is located at upper side of instrument panel, and it each contains an airbag and inflater. If a collision occurs, the inflator produces a large volume of nitrogen gas inflating the nylon airbag in a very short time.




STEERING ROLL CONNECTOR
The steering roll connector is located between the steering column and steering wheel. A flat cable stored in a spiral form transmits the electrical signal from the airbag control module to the steering wheel from the body harness.




AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT
The airbag warning light is located inside the combination meter. It illuminates if a poor connection occurs, or if the airbag control module detects an abnormality, When the airbag system is normal, this light goes out approximately eight seconds after turning the ignition switch ON.

WIRE HARNESS
The wire harness of the SRS airbag is entirely covered with a yellow protective tube, and can easily be identified from harnesses of other systems.
