Curtain Airbag (hereinafter referred to CAB)is located at driver and passenger side of headliner. It protects passenger’s head and shoulder from fragments of glass or something sharpen caused by overturn. CAB 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 CAB directly, Current of measuring device may cause unexpected air bag deploy.
The SRSCM sets DTC B1479 if there is a short to ground in PCAB harness.
*In this case, SRSCM checks if there’s any fault in circuit by sending current for a while.
