Impact Sensor: Locations

The airbag control module (ACM) is an electronic module that monitors the airbag system for proper operation, stores diagnostic trouble code (DTCs), controls the airbag warning lamp, and contains the safing sensor and accelerometer that is responsible for airbag deployment. The ACM is located on the floor pan between the gear shifter and the parking brake assembly. The ACM provides diagnostic information (DTCs) to the technician through the DRB Ill via the CCD bus. Some circuits are tested continuously; others are checked only under certain circumstances.

NOTE: The warning lamp is hardwired to the ACM and there are no external impact sensors.
