B1049, B1054 DRIVER AIRBAG MODULE





Description
For driver air bag module, crash is judged by main "G" sensor output signal and safing algorithm in front direction.

OPERATION
In case of frontal collision whose acceleration exceeds the specified level, the ignition materials are ignited by electric ignition system. The system burns the gas generating materials resulting in a chemical reaction. This generates hot gases that flow into the air bag through a filter and expand the bag.

STRUCTURE
Driver air bag module mainly consists of air bag and inflator that inflates air bag.

INSTALLATION
Driver air bag module is installed on the center of steering wheel with fixed bolts.

YES - GO TO 2.
NO - Replace harness connector.
2.CHECK WIRING HARNESS
Check the wiring harness externals.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 3.
NO - Replace wiring harness.
3.CHECK SPIRAL CABLE CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect driver air bag module harness connector and combination switch (spiral cable) harness connector.
3. Check continuity between driver air bag module harness connector and combination switch (spiral cable) harness connector.





4. Check continuity between driver air bag module harness connector and ground.





Is the inspection result normal?
