Side Airbag (hereinafter referred to SAB) located in driver and passenger seat protects passenger’s head and shoulder. SAB is consist of air bag and inflator. Air bag reduces impact of collision by fillied up gas. Inflator keeps gas and uses it to deploy air bag on collision.
Never measure resistance of SAB directly, Current of measuring device may cause unexpected air bag deploy.
The SRSCM sets DTC B1379 if the measured resistance value of DSAB circuit is less than the threshold value.
*In this case, SRSCM checks if there’s any fault in circuit by sending current for a while.
Item | Detecting Condition | Possible Cause | |
DTC Strategy | ● Check Resistance | ● Poor connection of connected part. ● Poor connection between shorting bar and release pin. ● Faulty DSAB. ● Faulty SRSCM. | |
Enable Conditions | ● Ignition "ON" | ||
Threshold Value | ● DSAB resistance ≤ 1.1Ω | ||
Diagnostic Time | Qualification | ● More than 1 sec | |
De-Qualification | ● More than 2 sec | ||
Test Condition | Resistance |
Ignition ON | 1.6Ω＜ DSAB resistance ＜ 4.7Ω |
